As the new year begins we pause to reflect on all the things that happened in the Year of Our Lord 2008:
- We began the year in the midst of a losing battle with facial hair.
- We travelled to Detroit, where our calzones froze to the bottom of our ill-insulated tour …

It's Saturday, November 28th. One day after the day after the worlds most intense Annual Pilgrim Party. And it is only now that I am at a point in my life that I can explain, in big man words, the chaotic events that took place two nearly two full days ago...
I awoke …

Good Lord.
Never in our collective robot-rock-opera-performing-lives have we been so destroyed by the raw power of an audience as we were Sabado noche. Each member of the Protomen awoke the next morning saying the same thing...(in the same bed - as the Thundercon has …

"Change is coming. The Volunteer State grows colder. The Thundercon will soon be consumed in frost and the sounds of people running through the David Beckham Wing seeking the warmth of the trash barrel fires that will light every bedroom for the months to come. If ever …

We tried. We told them to keep it secret...to keep it safe. They failed. It's everywhere now. It's all over me. We know the cause of the leak. We know now where they got it, and we know who it was, but it doesn't matter now. All that matters is that its out. There is, …

There are few reasons we break our vow of silence in between news
bulletins. We've recently learned of a fallen ally. A fallen friend.
Godspeed, Hayden. You will be missed.

Recently, we've noticed a lack of fancy* super live action video of us in the world. This brings the sadness down upon us like a sack of rusty anvils. Because of the high volume of our sadness, we thought it wise to ask our friends at Version Industries to …

Oh God.
Where have I been
What's happened here?
...
The day is Wednesday, the 26th of May, year of our Lord 2000...something.
Today is the first day I can focus my brain since the beating we took in Greenville.
What can I remember...
There was the 14 hour bus …

It has been a along time since last we spoke....for that, I am sorry. There are some things in this world that cannot be helped...like The Death Flu Sick. Our 3 day mini tour to KY, OH, and MI took it's toll on us. We have also been obscenely busy lately recording …

Jesse Christine is quiet now. All are asleep except for myself and Heath Who, who is piloting us homeward. Every man is clinging to the last breath of warm air, which is quickly fleeting from the cracks in the floorboard. The white lines outside are a blur as the …

We woke today with a false sense of calm. The air was crisp. We slept the night in the safety of Fival's Bane in the city of Savannah. Our ally here, Prof. Phil Keeling esq.

Atlanta is burning. We left the city this morning under the cover of a heavy fog and aluminum foil poptart wrappers. There was a dog barking...a pug who'd, the night before, wandered out into this wasteland, and in this blighted place, we think, learned to live again. …

Last night, we packed our bags and slept our last good night's sleep for seven days. For today, we begin our journey to the SouthEast. Repairs were made to the machines late into the night (those that suffered near destruction on our last two battles in Baltimore).

Last night we bid farewell to our dear friend and ally Armando Apache Putay. He left the Thundercon, never to return. His days are over in this dark world....he's gone on to a better place....a place on high....a place with central heat and air...a usable kitchen...and …

After a brief bout with death, the message board is back in action. Unfortunately, all previous information has been lost. We now have an over-abundance of bandwidth, so we will not fall again. It is now up to you to repopulate the message board.

They loaded the battle wagon at dusk.
They were ten and five in number.
Behind them were the charred ruins of a burning city.
Before them lay nothing but endless battles.
Their destination?
