Todd’s Last Show – This Friday at Texas Arizona
Well, I'm sure by now you've all heard the news - longtime Just the Tip bassist and all-around degenerate Todd Matteson is moving to London at the end of this month. That's right - the same guy who used to play gigs wearing a Vince Carter sweatband and cowboy boots will now be living in England. I get the feeling he'll blend right in.
Calling Other People ‘Douche’ is Fun Until…
Complex Magazine recently posted a hilarious rundown of the 25 Douchiest Bars in NYC. For those of you who don't live in the area, there are swarms of douches inundating Manhattan, and pretty much the only saving grace is the ability to point out some cheesedick at a bar and say "Look at that douche."
Let Me Get You Up To Speed
Man, do we have some things to talk about!! It's been a few months since we've updated the website, mostly because I grew tired of making superficial, semi-obvious jokes about my band mates. I thought I was better than all that but, clearly, I am not. None of us are.
R.I.P The Tip Van, 2008-2011
Over the summer we had to finally say "goodbye" to our beloved Just the Tip Van due to a litany of mechanical ailments. We sure had some great memories in that thing, like the time it died on me and Chad leaving the shop where we bought it. Or the time it died in the Holland Tunnel and Eric almost got shot by the cops trying to get help. Or the time it died on me in the Holland Tunnel (again) two days before I called the wrecker to come get that PIECE OF SHIT VAN!!!

Anyone Out There From Jersey?
If you are, take a look at this map and tell me it’s not spot on. It elicits a strange feeling in me that is equal parts pride and sadness. I image it to be the same feeling my Dad gets whenever I come home for the weekend. (click to enlarge) Read More →

Eric & Tino Acoustic at The Brass Rail Hoboken, This Friday
Doesn't this guy look just like Rod Stewart? If you were planning on going to the movies tonight to see Twilight, first of all you are a huge LOSER and secondly you should come to the Brass Rail instead. Now I know someone might try to slingshot a Tampax into my eye socket for saying that. But really, what could be more fun then Eric and Tino... [Read more]
