The singers are scheduled to go back in the studio within the next few weeks to finish up vocals for Rapture, Stay, Fading You, and Everyone. As soon as those four songs are done, the plan is to start pitching them to several labels the band has recently been in contact with. The few shows the band have coming up are listed below. The Hal & Mal's show on the 10 of August is going to be big, with two local bands opening the show...JMB Automatic, and Dave Jenning's new band, Gumbo, as well as an excellent band out of Nashville, Common Ground. They hope to see everyone there. Also the band will be playing their first show at Rick's in Starkville, and they need anyone and everyone to show up.

Vince and Joey spent the last week in Nashville working on the album with Derek and Bryan. Vince spent two days on guitars and emerged with a song and a half to show for it (rapture and stay, respecively), but we are getting more and more used to the idea that it takes a long time to create a proffesional sounding album. There will be an amazing difference between the album we are working on, and our Absolute Zero EP. Joey spent the remaining time working on vocals and acoustic guitars. His lead vocal on Rapture is finished and Everyone is very close to being finished. We are planning to return after the 15th of December for a few days, and to hit it really hard during the first two weeks of Januaray. Geronimo Rex will be back at the Shamrock in Monroe, LA, on Friday, December 14th. So come out and see us. Also go ahead and make plans to attend the biggest NEW YEARS SHOW in Jackson on December 31st at Hal and Mal's with Infinite North and Absence of Concern. The show last New Years was big, and this one will be even bigger. So go ahead and mark your calenders.
