Motivated to check in here again and bring things up to date a bit.  The summer here has been so fantastic and things are looking up so it is a good time to write a bit and put it all in perspective.

The first thing to announce is the new date for the Paul E. Phonics release show.  After the first date was re-scheduled and the seconed cancelled at the last minute a third attempt will be made on Sept. 4, 2010.  Third time is a charm as they say!

Work has also begun on a follow-up E.P. and if all goes well that will be released before the end of the year.  You can also look forward to a few more live shows from Paul E. Phonics in 2010, dates coming soon.

On a slightly sombre note, the future of Fine Print Pariah is pretty uncertain at the moment.  The majority of energy and resources here are being poured into Paul E. Phonics right now which hasn't left much time for getting a live band into shape.  But you never know what will happen, perhaps FPP will be rejuvenated in some way, perhaps in a slightly different form and with a slightly different sound.  We'll see how things go.

And things are evolving in other directions here too.  A brand new project is in the works and will be introduced in a few months, the third addition - or dimension - to 5th Estate Music. Exactly what form this new project will take is not yet clear but it will be more than just music.  The goal is for this to be an onging "work in progress" with frequent output outside the traditional restraints of  "albums" or "E.P." (or "singles" for that matter).

So that's it.  Lot's going on here behind the scenes that will be out there for all to see, hear and experience this autumn.   Stay tuned!
