News as of September 29th: Wow, it's been awhile since our last update, things have been busy with the school year starting again... But anyways, we have many things to cover. First, we would like to say that the Southern Rock Woodstock was a big success! There was a great crowd turnout, and was a really fun experience. Also, we now have T-shirts for sale, and to celebrate, we have changed the theme of the site to match the T-Shirts (clever, eh?) T-Shirts are $15 for all sizes and they're going fast, so grab some before someone else does! Also, if you noticed already, the layout of the webiste has changed a little: the "History" and "Bios" sections were consolidated into the "Band" section. The content hasn't changed, just the location. We also renamed the "Tour Dates" section to "Shows" (mainly because the word was too big to fit on the main page, ha), and we have dropped the calendar format too, to a simpler bulleted list setup. All this has been done to make your experience here at landofsouls.com better. We have also dropped the Pepsi vs. Coke poll, because we said we were going to stop it at 100 votes anyway, but then we forgot about it (you know us musicians) so the Pepsi vs. Coke poll has officially ended, and the results are:
Pepsi: 43 (28%)
Coke: 110 (72%)
we have reasons to believe some people were cheating though, because sometimes Coke would get about 20 votes in one night, but oh well, it's just a fun poll, it's not like the presidential election (if it was, Pepsi would probably demand a recount)
This just about completes our news for today, see you soon!

The gig at the Islander on July 15th was good. The crowd was very enthusiastic, and it went over well.
