Sonic spirit cast
A life, a piece of glass
Hurtling towards the planet
But you’d swear it was an accident

Heaven help us all
We’re seventh dimensional
Objects which our universes
Never did see before this curse

Woah, woah, woah, woah

Here we go

Those images of self spread out on screen
Are not to have or hold such is obscene
This is a life comprised of flaccid dreams
Insemination by artificial means

We’re defined by the bites on our hands
and our tireless sewer rat demands
And let’s reconstruct these lands
and fuck holding hands
Because we are imprisoned by the world we envisioned

We’re static prisoners … ???
So please cut the transmission and destroy the revision

Those images of self spread out on screen
Are not to have or hold such is obscene

This is a life comprised of flaccid dreams
Insemination by artificial means

Site operational.
Check out our contact information if you’d like to play a show with us. We’re ready and willing to play with any band at just about any venue.

Choose Your Own Adventure is going to some secret sessions in late August; we haven’t determined to which studio we’ll be going.

Check back for updates. We do that regularly.

Argh.

Well, the Evergreen Irish Pub show did not go exactly according to plan, but it rocked in a whole other way – much more fiercely than was expected. Special thanks to Atom Bomb Mother and their bass player for providing the living room (tee hee!) in which we played.

Also, just about anybody who wants to come to Joe Kogut’s party on the 15th and see us (or any of the other bands) is welcome. Other bands playing are Orpheus, Drive Thru Pharmacy, and The Cherry Tarts. The show is in Audubon, NJ.

“the address is the big yellow house on the 200 block of west graisbury ave in audubon with all the people in the back. i think it’s 248. or 254. i don’t remember which. ”

We’ve got a message board up and running, so go check it out.

I’ll link it on the navigation panel in a few days, so until then just go there from the main page (i.e. this page – click on the words “message board”).

Nothing else new, just the coming show on Saturday. Be there!

Band: Hey Dino, why didn’t you update the website?
Me: Ugh… I’m sick. Call me later.
Band: Hey Dino, why aren’t you updating our website?
Me: … well, I uh, I’m kinda busy now.
Band: Hey Dino, update the fucking website or you’re out of the band.
Me: 🙁 *sigh*

So anyway, I’m sorry. Big news ahead!

First of all, we cut a demo. Three songs, and a super secret song which we will probably put up on mp3.com or something. It sounds awesome. We’re selling it for $1, methinks… maybe $2.

Also, we have to change our name. There already is a Choose Your Own Adventure, and they’re in our area. Oh well. Good luck, Other Choose Your Own Adventure. E-mail us with suggestions! Or to ask us about playing a show, for that matter!

Lastly, we’re playing (yet another) backyard show this coming saturday, the 12th, at Summer Smith’s house in BALTIMORE?!?! That’s right, Baltimore. Can you say road trip? We can.

The new website is (finally) updated and operational. It’s about time, hmm? Anyways, here’s the news in brief…

You’ll notice two options of the site marked “Media” and “Articles”. For now, the Media section just links to our mp3.com page, but it will eventually contain a few things like pictures from practice and performances, songs we cover (in mp3 format), and maybe a video of something ridiculous. By the way, do visit the mp3.com page (http://www.mp3.com/chromelodeon). Though it is the same three songs that can be found on the demo, the more that people listen to us on the website, the better chance that others will find us and give us a listen.

The articles section is probably the most in-depth view of the band that one could possibly gain from this website, as the writings therein are not written about them, but by them. This will be a regularly updated portion of the site.

Last (but specifically not least), we are proud to introduce Chris Singer as the seventh member of the band. He runs our lights and projectors. Also, he is hard to dislike (which is certainly a plus!).

Be sure to check back regularly as this site is ever-expanding.

Sincerely,

The Webmaster

Hey! A show at Temple University has been finalized. It’s happening this coming sunday, February the 3rd. Check the schedule section of the site for more details. And while you’re at it, sign the mailing list if you want to hear news about us from time to time. Also, thanks to everyone who’s bought a CD! See you at the show!

Last Updated on

Two new concerts to report. Friday, March 1st at the Knitting Factory in New York City, and Saturday, March 2nd at the Killtime in Philadelphia PA. See our schedule section of the site for more information. Also, take a look at the articles section of the site; we just started putting some up there. Don’t forget about the Temple University show this coming sunday. Hope to see some of you there.

Ok, so we found this new venue type deal at Scooters Skating Rink near Mount Laurel. It’s the hangout of a lot of rock and roll kids from Cherokee and Lenape High Schools, and it kinda reminds us of the Cafe Oasis days of yore (if you have any idea what that means). We’re playing there this saturday with a great rock band called Dusk. Check the performance schedule for more details and directions.

In other news, we heard that even though there was sort-of a nastiness at the Killtime a bit ago, the show we are playing there is supposedly still good to go. Cheers to all those involved for putting up with people in general.

Shoot. Shoot shoot shoot. Okay. the Scooters show is NOT FREE. It costs $5. We’re really really sorry. Really. But if you come to the show, come see the keyboard player (who screwed up) and he’ll give you money. OK? So don’t not come!

Last Updated on

The Killtime show is CANCELLED. Cancelled, indeed, because the Killtime itself is no longer a venue. We’re sorry. Very sorry. But hey, there’s another show scheduled for April 13th, at Scooters Skating Rink with Dusk and Entrace. There are some other shows on the horizon, and we’ll keep you updated.

Also, hopefully our mp3.com site will be updated with another studio track, one which we didn’t include anywhere on our EP. Keep on the lookout for it, and keep listening!

Last Updated on

Hey, check it out, the Killtime reopened and we’ve got another show there with a bunch of bands. We’ve also got a bunch of shows coming up in April, but we won’t post those until we have absolute specifics. Stay tuned, everybody…

So it seems that the Scooter’s Skating Rink show (and all subsequent shows at that very place) have been moved to Friday instead of saturday. Just thought you’d like to know. Hopefully this has already gone out on the mailing list.

In other news, some – if not all the rumours you’ve heard are true: Chromelodeon is going on tour this summer, starting in the middle of June. (What?! Why?!) As soon as everything is confirmed, we’ll be posting dates and places.

Last Updated on

New show to report. A little late on updating, sorry. Tuesday, April 30th Temple University @ The Owl’s Cove, Mitten Hall. Starts at 7pm sharp. This Radiant Boy, Yours, Blood on the Tracks, I Dreamed of Pompeii. $3 at the door. Check our schedule for directions.

Last Updated on

We are rocking yet again at Scooter’s Rock & Skate. Friday, May 31st, starts at 10:30, $5 at the door. Bring a friend. Also, by checking our schedule, you’ll see that there are some dates of our upcoming summer tour posted, and not a moment too soon. Some of the venues are TBA as yet, but soon enough it’s going to be confirmed. Rock.
