So we're not really on a million tours, but it feels close. People from peta2 and peta2 UK are tabling some ridiculous number of festivals and tours all over the US, Canada, and UK coming up.

Check our MySpace calendar for all the dates. Are there any near you? Maybe Bamboozle or Taste of Chaos? Perhaps a little bit of Tegan and Sara or Anti-Flag or Aiden? Or possibly the Rockstar Get a Life Tour which starts today?! We've also got a conference in Toronto this weekend and more in the works.

Seriously, you should go to the shows and say hello to our road crew.

The next week on the Get A Life Tour features dates in:

4/2 Las Cruces,NM
4/3 Pueblo,CO
4/5 Columbia,MO
4/6 Champaign, IL
4/7 Columbus,OH
4/9 Rochester,NY

So will we see you at any of these shows or what?

P.S.- Have you sent in your Fur Is Dead bunny ears photo, yet?

OMG, Anti-Flag did what? December 20, 2007

Like how my title got your attention? The peta2 road crew has been hanging out with Anti-Flag, The Code, and Bomb the Music Industry the past few days and it's been amazing and such an inspiration to be with so many positive people. All the guys in those bands are completely awesome, they know you can make a positive change in the world and still have an effing good time doing it. The main reason the peta2 road crew do these blogs is to show you how exciting life can be while making a positive change in the world at the same time. A great way to start is by interning for peta2 or joining our Street Team (that's how we all started).

Before we met up with Anti-Flag we drove all the way from the West coast to the East. We figured this would be a great opportunity to do a few Sexy Santa demos to show people you can still be fashionable without wearing fur, leather, or wool. Paige was awesome and toughed out the freezing cold weather while Cody, who wore like a million layers of clothing, complained about being cold.


Just a random note: To spice up our lives a little more, we added a holiday-festive-non-denominational-tree and candy canes to our table. Marta would be proud!


-Paul, Cody and Paige

Anti-Flag Benefits Everyone! October 9, 2007

So our dear friends of Anti-Flag are doing good things again. No surprise there. The vegetarian four-some, who always go above and beyond to speak out against injustices around the world, have this time focused their compassion on a cause that has unfortunately impacted the guys on a personal level.

Earlier this year, Chris #2's sister was tragically taken as a result of a violent crime. In an effort to make something good come of this terrible event, the guys have just released A Benefit for Victims of Violent Crime. In true Anti-Flag fashion, this limited-edition EP was created with the goal of helping others. All proceeds from the CD, which features five new tracks and five live tracks, will be going to The Center for Victims of Violence and Crime, as well as different educational bonds.

I think it's so important to point out that research shows that a clear link definitely exists between cruelty to animals and cruelty to humans. People who commit acts of violence toward animals are likely to escalate toward humans. This is such a vital connection to remember and highlights why it is important that crimes against animals be taken seriously and punished to the full extent.

You love Anti-Flag, you love yourself some good punk rock, you love supporting a great cause, well there ya go. There's nothing to debate. It's all wrapped up in one nice lovely little package for you and it comes in the form of A Benefit for Victims of Violent Crime. Go buy this limited-edition EP today...before it's gone for good.

Hope all is lovely.
