Australia, Hello, Goodbye!

We completed our Australian dates and word on the street is that we had a great time. It was amazing to see so many people and play with so many cool bands. Blowers, Rivers of Snakes, Street Legal, Diplomat, Front End Loader, Tantichrist, Future Shocks and Gentle Ben and His Shimmering Hands were all so great. Go see them if they show up in your neighborhood and tell them we sent you! Thanks to Jenny and James for making it all possible. It’s always a dream to come over to Australia and we are psyched we had another opportunity.

GVSB Cruise Yourself Reissue

Our second Touch and Go album, Cruise Yourself, came out in May of 1994. It’s been a tough one to get a hold of for a while so we are happy to announce it’s back in print! Remastered by maestro, guru, all-knowing Bob Weston at his Chicago Mastering Plant, it sounds better than a million bucks now. It sounded like a million bucks before but now it sounds better so that’s a pretty high level of quality all contained in one scorching piece of wax. It’s available on suspended gold or black vinyl. You should be able to find it in most stores or through Touch and Go Records here:

Australia 2026 Here We Come

We are very psyched to announce our return to Australia. It’s been a long time since we’ve held even one kaola bear or made enough noise to make some Australians happy. We toured with Magic Dirt and the Nation Blue back in 2002 so 23 years later must be the charm. The dates are as follows:

East Coast Shows June 2025

We wrapped up our shows of June 2025 with the 40th Anniversary of Positive Force in Washington DC at St. Stephen’s church. We played with MAAFA from Brooklyn and managed shows in Kingston at Tubby’s on June 17, Brooklyn at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on June 18 and Johnny Brenda’s in Philadelphia on June 19. We had a great time and thank everyone for showing up and being awesome. It was truly an honor.

It’s Out!!

We’ve made it to release day-May 6th! Time moves quickly and we’ve finally reached the date when our 2 disc HOUSE OF GVSB reissue has been sent out! We are pretty proud of this record for a number of reasons. One: it’s on Blue, Yellow and Black vinyl and looks great. We had a bit of a struggle to get to the finish line because all of the printing backlogs but we made it! Two: This record combines both the original studio recording of HOUSE OF GVSB and a ton of our b-sides and limited releases for a few years into one place.
You can get it here or at your local record store or on amazon.
Here’s the track listing:

Rescheduled House of GVSB 25th Anniversary Dates



After much discussion, we’ve decided to postpone our GVSB shows in February until October 2022. The omicron surge really messed things up for us. In addition to the safety concerns, we also can’t imagine touring in a situation where we can’t hang out with our friends and fans, especially when one of the main points is to celebrate the 25th anniversary of House of GVSB. We’re especially sorry for anyone who has made travel plans to come to any of the shows.

All tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled October dates so hang on to them. Or if you can’t make the change, refunds will be available at point of purchase.

To our fans in Milwaukee and Philadelphia, unfortunately we were unable to coordinate new dates so these shows will be cancelled and your tickets will be refunded.

Additionally we are able to add a show in San Diego at the Casbah on October 8th.
Be well and we hope to see you in full, this October!

House of GVSB Reissue

Big News!

laptop

We’ve noticed that our 3rd Touch and Go release, House of GVSB, has become a little difficult to find. We are excited to announce Touch and Go is reissuing this record soon.

We’ll have a lot more details on what it entails but it will be more than the original record. This release will include a lot of tracks that have been hard to find and some of which have never seen the light of day.

We were hoping to have it out earlier, since 2021 is technically the 25th anniversary of the release of House of GVSB. Like just about everyone else, we’ve run up against tons of competition for space on the printing presses. We are in line like every other band/record company in the world.
