dance dance.
Hello all, matthew here. what a pleasure it was to see everyone out last night, packing the delancey for the LEVY / SOFT show, i think its one of my favourite shows we've played, thanks to the front row for being so hyper, it always helps, you know who you are. and also to all our new friends whom i had the pleasure of meeting last night, you also know who you are. hope to see you all again soon.

My night continued into the morning, myself, Fred & Joe from My Best Fiend, Natia, Meghan & Brit found ourselves in greenpoint at a hot sticky, damp, loud smoke filled afterhours dance party, highlights included laying on the roof of the building in a broken lawn chair looking at all six stars since in new york, you can only see 6, if your lucky. the night continued onto Enids, then home, where i found the apartment still recording ready post a My Best Fiend daytime recording session. so i helped myself to the guitars still plugged in and zoned out for an hour or two. yes, another great evening. indeed.

so back to business, we head to boston in a few days with the amazing SOFT boys, we'll be sharing a van and driving up together, will make for plenty of stories i'm sure, and photos. i've actually switched to film again, since my digital was stolen, all for the better, yes. heres the poster for the show.



this show should be great, we hope our MA friends will be able to make it out, since LEVY & SOFT together is a very special thing, as some of you already know. The following day (post show) SOFT fly to Japan for their first dates over their supporting their japanese release of "Hot Club & The Smoke Machine" which is charting #14 at the moment. congrats to the boys indeed.

some photos from last night thanks to Rosie

Keeping Up With The Steins...
On The Dance Floor is being featured in its first feature film, its not quite about the song, in any way, but someone decided that it would be great in a new film starring Jeremy Piven & Daryl Hannah.



The movie is called "Keeping Up With The Steins" and if you ever needed a real reason to go watch a movie, here it is. us. even if you hate the movie, you'll be able to hear our song for maybe 15 seconds, which is always a great way to pass the time.

Happy Mothers Day
