TUFF GUS AND PASTEY PASTE

PLANETEERS!  First of all, we have to say a HUGE thank you to Ian "Tuff Gus" Bush for taking the drumming reins from Casey while he locked himself in a bathroom for the length of the whole tour.  He's back in action though!

So let's round-up what has been going on lately...

***We went to SXSW......it was totally insane and we made a ton of new friends!  Played a bunch of shows and basically can;t wait to get back to Texas!  We'll probably be making our way back down there at the beginning of the summer, and I know I definitely heard something about a barge party, so keep an eye out for that.  ALSO, check the pictures section for all things SXSW!

***We can finally let out the news that our split 7" with Titus Andronicus will be out very soon!  A huge thanks goes to Jeremy from Battletapes in Nashville for doing a last minute session with us to record our side of the single.  Speaking of which, our side will feature the new song, "Babyhead" and the 7" will be available as the FIRST release on Titus Andronicus' label!  BIG UPS TO EM!

***At the end of last year we filmed some high quality live videos for PASTE Magazine and they just
went up this week for your viewing pleasure!  We played "Intro/Warm Ridin" "Raft Nasty" "Kids" and "Babyhead" .....you can check out the videos on our video page!  ALSO Jordan, Brent, Emmett, and Evan were featured in PASTE as part of their "Portraits of 52 Guitarists and their Guitars" segment which you can check out on our pictures page!

***Our audio page has a fresh live recording from our set at this year's Freakin Weekend in Nashville.
Definitely one of the craziest shows we've played in a while!  You can listen to it on our audio page!

***Our shows page has two weekends worth of shows in and out of Nashville in April; as well as our first summer tour routing.  The dates will go up as confirmations come in.....if you see a date that hasn't been filled and want to book us, send an email to diarrheaplanet@gmail.com!! GO TO THEM AND BE FREE!!!

***On top of all of this craziness, we're also working on a brand new 7" for Infinity Cat Records, as well as a Flexi-Disc for Infinity Cat Records!!! A new full length for Infinity Cat Records later this year and a special treat that we can't go into details about just yet....

MASSIVE UPDATES ON ALL PAGES GO CHECK THEM OUT WAHOO BEST SUMMER 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
