Holy freaking update time Batman!
AOD has been a busy bunch of bees the last little while... making tons of that sweet AOD honey...
Where do I start?
We're going to ENGLAND! That's right... the U f-ing K!
I've never been... and I can't wait!
World Cup Soccer... Pubs... The Queen!
Give me a break... this is going to RULE!
We're opening for TOOL and the DEFTONES at a Festival called DOWNLOAD on June 9.
Metallica and Guns N Roses are headlining the second 2 days... should be over 200,000 people at the festival again this year.
Check out their site!

We just confirmed another show in LONDON opening for FISHBONE on June 8 at The Garage.
ahhhhh... yeah.... FISHBONE!
Need I say more?
Let me just throw this out there...
If you live in England and you want to help us out on any level... we would love you forever for it!
We're going to be a little lost, so any tips would be appreciated!
Most importantly... we need places to crash!
Got a cozy hard wood floor that is begging for 5 musicians to curl up on it for a night?
Do you make a mean 12 egg omelet?
Give me a shout.... I'm serious, we will stay at your house!
We may pick up a few more shows in the UK... so stay tuned!!

New Music West finished a couple of weeks back... (that's kinda like Vancouver's SXSW)
... guess who won the award for 'BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE' of the festival?
Yup.... your honey makin' home town boys.... AOD!
I don't know how that happened as I personally saw a lot of great shows... but hey, we'll take it.
Maybe someone paid off the judges or something? Never know.
