E-bay Auctions of rare Chuckanut Drive gear!
It turns out that recording an album as, well, perfect as Fidelity Grange is an expensive proposition, and seeing as we're all a few dollars short of "Rock Star" status, we've set up some e-bay auctions of unique Chuckanut Drive memorabilia to offset the costs of recording. Check 'em out. Especially that first one.

Garth Gets Hitched
That´s right! Pedal steel playing taxonomist, Garth Daley Highsmith, married sweetheart/Chuckanut Drive web mistress, Lauren Manes, on Saturday, October 21. The two are currently on honeymoon in the Basque country of Northern Spain.
The ceremony was lovely. Steve and Loren serenaded the newlyweds with an acoustic rendition of Sam & Dave´s "When Something is Wrong with my Baby." All you wedding planners out there take the lead from Lauren and Garth: Cocktail hour before the ceremony is an excellent idea. Emotions ran high; we laughed, we cried, and by the end of the night there wasn´t a dry eye or sober noggin in the place. Good luck kids.
Check back for pictures.

Oregon mini-tour, plus a shopping cart!
The band just got back from a fun Oregon mini-tour -- Friday night in Portland and Saturday night in Eugene. Got: lots of beer. Some marriage proposals. Garth's sore throat. And, of course, hangovers all around. Left behind: Kubby's pillow. Loren's guitar. (Both reclaimed and safe.)
There will be resting & practicing for the next weekend o' shows: with I Can Lick Any Son Of A Bitch In The House & Drag The River at the Tractor, in Seattle, August 25; then two shows on the 26th, in Bellingham. Check the calendar for more info.
And, last but not least, our awesome CD-selling pals at CDBaby.com have made a handy-dandy shopping cart. Now you can buy the CD straight from our page, through them.
Rock.
