Good news and Bad news from The Morning Of
So there's good news, and there's bad news. I'll give you the bad news first ...
Okay so saturday we were 2 miles away from where we were playing, our friend Anthony had just bought us all Subway (it was so good) and we get back in our van to go to where our show is, and our van starts making a disgusting grinding noise. Eventually that grinding noise turned into a high pitched shriek. We knew we couldn't go any further haha, so we pulled into a funeral home parking lot (perfect place to break down right?). So our amazing friends in the band Airports ( check out their myspace!) went through a million phone calls and did us a million favors and helped get our trailer to the venue so we could play the show. We want to thank them so much for being some amazingly helpful guys. (and all their friends who helped too!!!)
AS IF THAT WEREN'T ENOUGH, monday morning on our way to Chicago, we hit a patch of black ice, and our van and trailer jacknifed multiple times and we spun out on the highway. Eventually it got so bad that our trailer ripped off of the trailer hitch and slammed into our van numerous times. Somehow, through the pure grace of God, we didn't veer off the road and all of us are okay! It was probably the scariest moment of our lives.
So basically our van and trailer are messed up, and its gonna cost A LOT of money to fix, money we don't have...so..we hate to do this, but if any of you had a couple of dollars you could spare (anything) we would love if you could paypal us some help
.
So pleaaase help us out, anything you can do, like $1 would help us out so much
Please send any donations to themorningof@yahoo.com via paypal.com
Thanks everyone!!!!
UNFORTUNATELY because of these awful roads, we have to cancel our show in Minneapolis, MN at THE BEAT COFFEE HOUSE. We are so very sorry, and we promise to re-schedule and make it up to all of our amazing friends in the area.
Ok so now for the good news!!!!!
Our record came out as many of you know on January 29th!!!
Since then about a million amazing things have happened because of all of you amazing people!!!
We hit a million plays on myspace (and then some!)
A million plays on purevolume.com!!!
We were number one on purevolume.com for a couple days! And now we're still in the top 10 thanks to all of you!!
Our album debuted at 18 on the BILLBOARD HEATSEEKERS CHART!!!
We're also now in Hollister jukeboxes! So pleeease go to hollister and pick our songs!!!
We have been top 5 on smartpunk.com for a month
We were the number 25 most downloaded pop album on iTUNES!!!
Oh man, I'm probably leaving a lot of stuff out, but anyways
This past month has been amazing, and even with our van breaking down, and our near death experience, we just want to thank you all so much for your amazing support.
We never dreamed in a million years for all of you to respond to our music in the way you have been.
So thank you.
We love you all so much
