Thank You California!
Dear Menomenauts,
With apologies for not being able to post much during this West Coast tour,
I would like to say,
SAN FRANCISCO : We had such a fun time playing at the Hemlock Tavern.
Thank you to :
- Julia for running sound for us — you were so nice and communicative!
- The Bad Hands for opening and rocking and being fantastically nice people!
- 31 knots for working the audience into a complete frenzy!
- Lisa and HRT for being absolutely wonderful!
- Katherine and Performer magazine for presenting the show!
LOS ANGELES : Things finally clicked for us onstage at Spaceland. We had an absolute blast!
Thank you to :
- Jonnie and Emily for helping us run the merch table, and for total general awesomeness!
- Julie, Alex, and Mikoko for telling us about your cool film projects over dinner!
- Kim for your encouragement!
- Molly, Jennifer, and Joe of Spaceland for making our experience go SO smoothly!
- Pink Mountaintops for letting us play with them!
- My sister for letting us crash at her cool apartment!
SAN DIEGO : This was our very first time playing in San Diego. Thank you for having us at the Casbah!
Thank you to:

We would like to :
- say how wonderful it was to play with 31 knots during this tour. You three gentlemen are such fantastic humans, and together you constitute an incredible band. Also : Annette : Viel Gluck! Ich hoffe das Menomena Deutschland besuchen konnen!
- [and] apologize to California for bringing the Oregon rain-storms down to SF, LA, and SD along with us! That's what life is like in Portland EVERY DAY.
Rain rain rain!
Rock rock rock!
Love love love!

Menomena!
I read an old interview that mentioned Brent making a tape of Smashing Pumpkins songs based soley off the lyrics. Does this still exist? Might a track appear on that 'space' of yours?
Dear Jasper,
I am not quite masochistic enough to leak those tracks. (They sound awful!) Thanks for asking, though!
Rock rock rock,
Love love love,

Vinyl of friend and foe?
Dear Anonymous,
We are currently looking into how much it would cost to do the full-blown artwork for a vinyl pressing. In all likelihood, the vinyl release of Friend and Foe will come out quite a bit later than the CD. But it IS something we're planning on. Also, it will be released through FILMguerrero.
Thanks for asking!

Menomena! I cannot wait to see you at Johnny Brenda's on Friday. I'm even dragging the new dad [and legendary show attendee]- Chris Cashdollar with me.
Rock! Rock! Rock!

Brent's abandoned blog! Man, I am bummed that I missed Spaceland. This was such an exciting time for the band...
Here's hoping that Ramona Falls and Menomena will continue and make amazing music.
