the mixes are sounding great so far and the record is so close to being done that i can taste it in my spit. the newer (and much better) version of “magic lamp” is going to be on the second mass broadcast comp, due this summer. thanks to dave downham at gradwell for mastering it in record time.

i’m kicking off my summer vacation with a nice 2200 mile trip from here to indiana and back in a roundabout way. right now my schedule reads like this:

06/23 harrisburg pa
06/24 oakland pa
06/25 pittsburgh pa
06/26 kent oh
06/27 ft wayne in
06/28 rochester in
06/29 cincinnati oh
07/01 virginia beach va
07/03 annapolis md

will update soon with venue information, other bands, etc. there’s a quick tour page at jamescuartero.com/tour.i also made a myspace page for people to check out the solo versions of the songs as well. check it out at myspace.com/jamesxoxo. looking forward to seeing you!
