We are five!

Goodness gracious, Team!
Five years ago today, Uncle Monsterface performed our first ever rock show at Zuzu’s Cafe in Cambridge, MA. Marty had a couple of puppets, there was no theater, and probably all of six songs. But there we were! Within four shows we had videos and puppets everywhere!

HAPPY BIRTHDAE US!
Celebrate with a classic!
Olde School Lionfist Journey

Five years later we’ve completed four recordings and been all across the country playing our rock songs, done all kinds of wacky videos, ate tons of pies and sandwiches, and met and played for and with so many awesome people it’s occasionally overwhelming.

Developmentally, I’d say we’re walking and talking and interacting with others rather well.

What’s next? Exciting things, actually. We’re workin’ on ’em. You won’t see any shows for a bit, though, cuz stupid Marty has to make and sell as many of his Sock Puppet Portraits as he can in December.

Though we WILL have an Present Day surprise for you this month, we promise.

Yay and yay.

What better way to say Happy Birthdae Uncle Monsterface than by DONATING VIA OUR PAYPAL BUTTON ————>

we love you!

Ever your loyal,
Uncle Monsterface

Seriously, people of the world, this is a show to see. If it isn’t enough to see our giant mashed potato fight a vampire with a huge head, then come for the aerobic awesomeness of our family band Math and the action punk back-flips of the mighty Peelander Z.

It might also be slyly and duly noted that this could well be one of the last times you’ll get to see us in a while WITHOUT a live drummer. If ever there was a sneaky announcement, that sure was one.

AND! “Jokey Jingles”, our FREE FOR OUR TEAM MONSTERFACE E-MAIL LIST EP of covers is coming so soon! We are almost done! And we are really excited about it! We’ll announce the date really soon, we promise. SERIOUSLY!

Most importantly – keep being awesome. For you are your own continent of mighty powers, and we believe in every island, peninsula, and chain store that populates you.

Nerds! A Call to Action!

Dear Awesome person of awesome-ness that we can totally sense from either afar or nearby ,
We realize that you aren’t all in Florida or close to Florida.
But just this once, this show IS relevant to all of you even if you are nowhere near Florida.
Cuz you know what, Team?
This one speaks to the pocket protector at the bottom of your heart and the graphic calculator in the depths of your soul…to the nerd inside us all!
We are performing at Nerdapalooza in FL this weekend, and just this one time, we’re looking to the lot of you to help spread the word.
It’s an amazing festival full of incredible people, the vast majority of whom are donating their time and giving much of the proceeds to charity (the super-cool Child’s Play). If you know of anyone who you think might think this is as awesome as it is, please please help us spread the word.
How? A simple Tweet (with #nerdapalooza to help it trend), a Facebook or Myspace post, or even an e-mail to a friend who lives in that area all go a super-long way to help. Because of you some other awesome person could experience this awesome event with us! Thanks in advance, and that’s cool if you can’t.

In short:
WE ARE PLAYING AT FLORIDA’S NERDAPALOOZA THIS WEEKEND! AWESOME!
Please help us spread the word about this awesome show by letting other awesome people know about it! For the great big nerd inside us all!
come and see
Uncle Monsterface
and a ton of other amazing Geek, Weird-o and NERD-centric rock acts at
NERDAPALOOZA!
The festival is July 11-12 with too many amazing geeky bands to name.
Seriously, go look. We are performing early in the evening on the 12th.
This whole show will be a flaming ball of unbridled amazement, hurtling through a staunch variety of over-sized circus hoops, shot out of an 8-bit cannon made of legos.

Holiday Inn – Orlando International Drive Resort
6515 International Dr
Orlando, FL 32819

Come to Disneyworld with us the next day!

Also: This is as far from the east Coast as we are getting this summer, kids and cadets, so
embark on the trip like so many zealots in a colorful caravan on their way to a Geek Mech Mega Mecca Man Oh My (vs Dr. Wiley who used to be a nerd but now hates them).

Once more with feeling:
Like Zombie Gary Gygax riding the back of a giant Mecha Joss Whedon-bot carrying a seriously cool stash of imported DS games.
Nerdapalooza is happening this weekend!

Be there or else miss being there AND WE’LL MISS YOU BEING THERE!!

AND? We WILL be premiering a new cover – you WILL be able to download it for free!
YES!

Ever your loyal,
Uncle Monsterface

But you should also know that it’s awesome – puppeteers interpreting modern musicians, this month featuring the Magnetic Fields.
