- We got our music all set up now for listening to at PureVolume.com. Its got two songs goin right now and I hope to add more in the upcoming weeks. In other news we are about to start recording our EP in a few days or so, but ill update you on that in a short while. Pressure Suit.

- Yeah, the show was good and I had alot of fun; and we released a little 4 track demo CD dealie today and sold around 20 of them, which made it even better. We'll be releasing a full cd in the next month or two with a bunch of new tracks on it... i'm looking forward to it. On Another note, theres a new music critic in town, and his name is Ben Vela. "You guys are like a corpse," he says because we wouldn't let him play in our band. How sad. Oh Yeah, almost forgot, new MP3 is about to be up as soon as this stupid server works. Miss Misery.

- We got an All Acoustic show coming up on January 23rd with Synergy, Saving Mayfair, and a bunch of other people. Yeah, we like acoustic shows, and I promise this ones gonna rock cause im taking Vitamin C tablets and drinkin OJ. Gotta stay healthy. 1-800 Ghostdance.

- Yeah...I finally got pictures up on the site. Sorry about the wait, I know you all were dying to see them. Anyways, they're all done by Mike Litchfield and they all kick ass; so i wanted to give a huge thanks to him. I guess up next would have to be the mp3, so check up on it in a little while.

- I just wanted to say happy new years to everyone out there. Pictures should be up sometime soon and so should a few more mp3s. Break has been lazy, so ill get back to you later about everything else.

- So, my voice is finally coming back, which rocks, cause then I can rock , with my voice. Winter break is starting off tomorrow and i am happy to say that Jess and I will be working on our CD, so look for it around Christmas/New Years. Yeah, i'll also be recording Synergy, and their EP will be coming out pretty soon as well. Winter Break is about to kick ass, cause I'm a reasonable man, Get off my case, Get off my case...

- Yeah, im gonna have to apoligize, fridays show was horrible, but there is a reason for this. I have the flu and my voice is gone, which sucks, but i went up and tried to sing anyways, which i shouldnt have, and it turns out i sucked real bad. Everyone told me not to sing, including jesse, but i was stubburn and went and made an ass out of myself. Im gonna have to make it up to everybody and redeem myself completely, so we're about to have a show in a little while with Synergy and i refuse to get sick for that one. I also want to say thanks alot to lindsay ellch for covering for us and playing a few songs...

- Ok, I was just talking to Max Tenclay on about shows and all that, and he just told me that Caribou Coffee has open mic night every tuesday night; so next tuesday me and Jess are gonna play there to give a little preview of whats to come, and to help promote the show on the 12th. If you want to come and hear us play you're more than welcome to. Only problem is that I have no idea what time we'd be playing, considering I didnt even know that Caribou had an open mic night in the first place. Yeah, so come drink coffee and check us out...

- We got a show coming up on December 12 at Living Springs church on Halsted. The line-up will be us, Synergy, Saving Mayfair, and another band that i dont know the name of with Ben Vela. Hopefully this show will be our CD release show cause we've been doing some work in my studio and we should be able to record our other originals. Yeah, I have to help record for Synergy, as well as Jess and I, so i'll have my hands full...in a good way though.

- Well i just got our acoustic cover of the Foo Fighters - Everlong up on our music page so download it while you still can. Just make sure to follow the directions and you'll be set for life. Yeah.

- Yeah, we just placed 5th in the HF Battle. It was alot fun, I thought we did good, and i'm really glad to finally just get out there and play. Actually, rumor has it that we were tied with the band Panda Faust for 4th place but they just gave it to them. Another rumor has it that the band that got third place sucked real bad. Ah, can't forget to thank Mr. Miller for cutting us short on time, i'll always love ya Mil...

- Hey everybody, and welcome to The Requiem website. For those who dont know us, the Requiem consists of me, Derek Wians on vocals, and this Jesse Foster kid on guitar. Oh, and sometimes i'll play drums too. Yeah.
