Summer Update…
Tuesday, July 7th, 2009
Ok… where do we start? - I know the most hardcore fans found the most recent photos from Cowboy Monkey – I’m glad you did because we’re just now getting around to saying “Hey – they’re online!”.
Anyway – the show went great – the other bands were fantastic, we were shark-tastic, and we had a surprise visit from some Peoria fans (now dubbed the ‘Peoria Sharkettes’). They braved a monsoon and drove 1,432,532 (or so) miles to make the Backyard Shark show.
Hard. Core.
Alright, alright – so here’s what’s new:
New music is being written. We just ran through the newest tune tonight at practice and it’s killer… you have no idea what’s in store for you.
Recording: It’s the never ending project. I think we’ll call the record ‘Chinese Democracy’ (can we get sued for that?). The update is: we’re still working on it and planning on how to do it with all the band members spread around IL.
Shows: We have a few shows coming up. The most amazing of which will be at Bentley’s Pub on July 25th. We’re playing with ‘Faster Forward’ (with yours truly on drums). Faster Forward is a new band in town headed by a great songwriter named John Caparoon. We highly recommend you come check out the show – if not for us, for Faster Forward. 
See you all at the show.

Acoustic show with Lucky Mulholland
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008Friday Nov 14th, 9:00 at The Iron Post
Lucky Mulholland’s a great local band that we’re happy to finally be sharing the stage with. We’ll be appearing as an acoustic opener as I’m afraid Jeff can not make it. This is the perfect way to see Backyard Shark in such a great intimate venue as the Iron Post.
We hope to see you at the show!
