Tour blogs on wweek.com

We wrote some blogs for the Willamette Week while we were on tour, and they've all been posted now. Start with "the pole," end with "minimum wage." (That's what she said.)

You'll find: photos, moustaches, philosophical musings, a racoon, Penguins, bowling, darts, missing pants, professional drinkers, thin air, traffic, groping, Guitar Hero, Indiana Jones, Rudyard Kipling, admissions of defeat, declarations of victory, and foul-mouthed burger joint ladies.

In short, thissa blog got it ALL!

Hearts, flowers, and the kitchen sink,

Charmparticles Video Television!

View the gallery here!

Greetings to all in Charm-ville. It is your humble guitar-er here to share some rad news-- a Charmparticles video is on its way to your tv, web browser, mobile phone, and if we can, we are going to broadcast it DIRECTLY into your brain!

We just got back from a couple days in NYC filming with Mallard Media, a stellar production company with all the right moves... Don't worry, I won't give you any spoilers, just some highlights/observations from the trip!

1. NYC is freaking amazing.
2. $1.50 Sabrett's hot dogs are simultaneously revolting AND delicious.
3. It is a rare treat to be able to tip a restroom attendant!
4. You're never more a rock star than when you are standing around watching a crew full of people work super hard and they won't let you lift a finger... until it's time to hit your mark, in which case 50 takes is in no way ENOUGH. :) Just kidding, Lambert.
5. Oregonians MUST either buckle up or take Xanax while riding in NYC taxis.
6. Actors are super troopers-- seriously, we are in awe of everything they did for the shoot! When you see it, know that Charmparticles love each and every person in the clip.
7. Trump Tower looks even more ridiculous in real life than it does on the tele.
8. Rockefeller Center looks huge on TV, but guess what? It AIN'T.
9. Oh yeah, something to look forward to: the video is for "Gold Plated Shot," so get your faces ready to get rocked!

We should be seeing rough edits within a couple of weeks, so hopefully the video will be invading you virally within a month! Stay tuned!

Love, Nathanael//Pamela//Sarah
