We were mentioned in the latest issue of What Weekly, and there’s a nifty photo of us playing at Pow Wow – we love supporting Baltimore’s thriving arts scene and being a part of it! This kind of stuff makes our day!

You can now stream our music on radioreddit.com, as well as music by other unsigned/independent acts. It’s a pretty nifty site, and although it’s still under construction, you can definitely see and hear the potential. We would like to extend our thanks to the wonderful Reddit community at large, and especially those lovable sorts who share our music on their radio show. Our next plan for radioreddit? To be the featured artist…

Our song “Minnesota” will be on the Rockband Network in the near future, thanks to the awesome folks at Fairwood Studios.

Here is a sneak peek at the gameplay footage

Hey, you got a minute?

Remember that conversation we had about seven months ago? That’s right, when the stock market was hitting the shitter and everybody was flipping out? It was the end of the world, right? The economy was ruined and it was time to start hoarding ramen and shotgun shells. Yeah you remember, you were freaked the most out of all the cats around. Didn’t you max out your credit cards at Bass Pro? I’ll buy that portable radiation shelter from you if you’re still looking to sell.

But do you remember what I told you? The first thing was to shut the hell up. All of your pissing and bawling was grating on my nerves, and the doc says histrionics ain’t good for the ticker. The second thing was to take whatever money you could spare and buy the stocks I told you to buy. And did you listen to me? Probably not, because you never do. Let me tell you something, Madoff; if you had listened to me you would be a whole lot better off financially. I just got back from four weeks in the Caimans and the micro-brewed rum is delicious. I made so much money that I crap ticker tape, I can pull out the latest info from CNBC right outta my butthole. I’ll give you a strip sometime.

So why am I talking to you now? I admit, I like to rub it in a little. It makes my beard all bristly to nurse 25 year old scotch while you’re sipping on a Big Gulp. My shoes are made of alligator leather and you work at Payless. I spend more money a month at massage parlors than you do to pay your mortgage. When I take a dump I wipe my ass with gold foil. It’s your own fault, Stetson; you never listen to what I have to say and now you’re paying for it. ‘Paying’ might be a stretch, you broke bastard, but you get the idea.
I like you, and I want to help you out. Truth be told, I’m also sick of your wife begging me for money. I might have to start getting some milk from that cow if I float her any more beans, if you know what I mean. Listen up and listen good, because this is the last tip I will give you, and if you don’t take advantage of it, you’re dumber than bricks.

I came across a website called sellaband.com, and to make a long story short you can invest in different music acts. That’s right, I’m talking show business, one of the easiest markets to break into. The interwebz are all abuzz about this band called Voodoo Pharmacology, and while their music is strangely provocative and more irresistible than Robert Palmer’s Greatest Hits, they made a dope move, and THEIR STUPIDITY CAN BE YOUR GAIN. It looks to me that this group of donkeys have made three albums but they ran outta dough, and someone told them to get outside investors for their fourth album. These dumbasses are selling STOCK at $10 a share for the upcoming disc, and based off of their track record it’s going to be another doozy. I’m talking red carpets, Puff Daddy parties, meditation seminars with Deepak Chopra, endorsement deals from media conglomerates, national monuments, the whole nine yards. These guys are gonna cure world hunger. IT’S THAT GOOD.

I know concentrating ain’t one of your specialties, so I’ll do the math for you. 6,000 shares at $10 a piece. You buy some shares, and for the next five years you get a 55% investment in this aforementioned album. If you can raise the bread, I would suggest dropping $60,000 all at once and buying every last ticket. If you own all of the shares, you’ll make more money off of their album than those jamokes will! Visit the website and read up on it; it sounds like a damn fine deal to me. I’ve already taken out a second mortgage and sold my Picasso to get the funds available. I might not know much about music, but this band has got their act together and is gonna go places. Voodoo Pharmacology is the hardest-working, brightest, dedicated, sober-minded musical act since Bobby Darin, and you know how much of a compliment that is coming from yer pal August Moran.

Do it. Take the plunge. Fuck Christmas shopping and spend all of your money at this website. Don’t pay any bills. I would sell your car if necessary and relieve yourself of all material wealth to make this move. Look for VPFA, Voodoo Pharmacology’s Fourth Album, to be the smartest investment you’ll ever make. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

We would like to extend our thanks to PJ, the blogger in question, as well as the “AskReddit” section of the Reddit website. Who’s down for taking a road trip to Buffalo, NY with us? We’re thinking about playing a show up there sometime next year.

Our music has recently been a played on MTV and MTV2 as a part of “Double Shot of Love” episode “The Truth Will Set You Free”
Also, some clips appeared on Oxygen network’s show “BadGirls Club”in the episode entitled “Boston Tea Party”

Just WHY our music was chosen for use in these reality TV shows is a mystery to us, but we are certainly pleased to have the royalty check. Thank you, whoever you are!

So we got reviewed over at Examiner.com just recently by urban arts writer Robert Gandy.  Really great review, too.  He even said we had “substance and immense skill”.  What flattering lies! Thanks Robert
