The band has added a bunch of new dates for August and September.
* August 1, Coat of Many Colors Street Party
* August 8, Founders Brewery, Grand Rapids, MI
* September 11, Mulligan's, Eastown, Grand Rapids, MI
* September 19, Wealthy Theater, Grand Rapids, MI
* September 23, Elbow Room, Ypsilanti, MI
* September 24, The Lager House, Detroit, MI
I would expect a few more dates will fill in the edges, as none of these dates are listed as a record release show for The Incident at Primrose and West.

"Title Cut"
Just Relax Flotation comes through again with a stellar vid of "Venango County."

Just Relax Flotation capture the Chance Jones Band set at the Jammies back in February. I was there with my video camera as well, but I haven't uploaded my footage yet.

So...
Yeah.
Been kinda delinquent in updating the site. The bad news is that it was caused by some job related stress and worries. The good news is that those days of stress may be behind me.
My apologies to those of you who noticed that the site was hibernating for a few months.
But I do have some good news.
First of all, the band is playing this week at Founders Fest. They're scheduled to go on about 7, but come hang out all day at the fest. There are a ton of great bands scheduled to go on. Plus, it'll be a great chance to hear some of the old favorites before the newer material takes over the setlists.
Second, the album, titled The Incident at Primrose and West is nearly complete. While I've still yet to hear anything official from the album, Bol has told me that the album is about 40 minutes long, "blows away" The Angels Share, and will NOT feature the live staple "My Sunshine" or the "Crosstown" prequel, "Maria." There have been discussions about releasing an EP of tracks that don't fit the vibe of Primrose but nothing is official. My wish? (And this is purely my wish) An EP of the two tracks above, plus a full band recording of "Venango County" and "Carolina Breeze." Heck, I'd even settle for live soundboard recordings of those tracks.
What is on the album? "Nobody's Baby" is still there, but according to Bol, it sounds like "Otis Redding go-go dancers" would dance to it. I have no way to interpret that statement. Other working titles for songs on the album right now include "Love's Still Wild" and "My Machine."
Finally, don't stop believing.
Bad stuff happens in life, but if you work through it, have a vision, and don't compromise yourself, good things will happen. DON'T STOP BELIEVING!
End pep talk.
See you Saturday!

Great night by the band, with a re-worked version of My Sunshine, compared to the last time I heard it this past fall. High energy, great crowd, pretty good sound. Tough night to tape, but I think it's a good problem when there are a lot of people in the crowd there in your way.
