09-24-2005 Midpoint Music Festival Neon's - Cincinnatti, Ohio w/ Jared Mahone, Glinda's Bubble, The Newbees and Ruetschle. By the time we made it through PA, WV and into Ohio, the 'Zard had pissed off around a dozen or so people. Crazy Mary would like to apologize to the couple at Haag's in Shartlesville, and to Matt at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburg, and to the waiter at Shanghai Mama's in Cincinnati for the 'Zard's various faux pas'. ARMAND COMMENTS: What gall! This from a guy (Nick) who walked the streets shouting, 'Cin-cin-f***king-atti!' at the top of his lungs. Talk about embarrassing. . . .
09-17-2005 CMJ Showcase Bowery Poetry Club w/ Bril, Nicole Paradiso and Contramano. Nick was really pleased with our performance. The Wizard didn't piss anyone off. We played a new song, NUCLEAR LIPSTICK, which people seemed to like. Didn't get home until 4:00AM because we stayed for this great band, Contramano, in self-imposed exile from Argentina. As part of the CMJ festivities, Nick got to see the Dandy Warhols at CBGB's, and, earlier, the Rainbow Quartz showcase. Here's what we played: INVISIBLE, TELL ME NOW, I’M THIRSTY FOR COOL, VASELINE AND AFROSHEEN, THE RAIN IN MEMPHIS, NUCLEAR LIPSTICK, SHE COMES IN WAVES, MONKEY MAGIC MEDICINE, SHOCK ME, and BURNED.
07-28-2005 Pussycat Lounge w/ Rezidu, Kill By Inches, and Black Dawn. The house was one microphone short, but Armand still thinks our vocals hit an all-time high in spite of it. Nick nearly melted on the 'George Forman Drummer Grill' [the light show] mounted behind the drummers' throne.
