"law enforcement issues" ended their set after only 15 minutes. once things settled greg davis went on for a truncated 20 minute set. short sets aside, we want to thank brendan for his top-notch hospitality. =20 fortunately our visit to charlottesville the next night proved more successful. we'd like to thank everyone at the tea bazaar and tim schultz for making the show such an amazing experience. a couple of art terrorists in animal masks and hazmat suits even showed up! =20 you can check out photos from both shows at <http://www.carparkrecords.com/virginiaphotos.html>www.carparkrecords.com/vi rginiaphotos.html =20 the animal collective will be touring the US with ogurusu norihide for six weeks this summer. we are in the process of organizing this tour so if you want to set up a show please get in touch with us! =20 carpark campfire =20 as we are so busy with acute and paw tracks releases this summer, things are a little slow at carpark HQ. our next planned release is greg davis "curling pond woods" which will hopefully be out in august. =20 greg davis will be touring the US midwest and east coast with audio dregs' recording artist e*rock and lullatone this summer. if you are interested in setting up one of these shows please contact greg davis by going to his website at <http://www.autumnrecords.net>www.autumnrecords.net. =20 =20 if you are in japan check out the new issue of after hours which has a sweet carpark label feature. comes with a free carpark mix cd too! =20 and we are hoping the new carpark records website will go up sometime later this month.... =20 carpark contest in lieu of the monthly carpark trivia question, this month we are having a contest: the first ever carpark t-shirt contest. just email your carpark t-shirt design to <mailto:xxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx>xxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx and our favorite one will become the next carpark t-shirt! good luck! =20 carpark family calendar =20 Dinky April 12th, 19th, and May 9th - Santiago, Chile May 16 - D-Berlin May 17 D-Dresden + Mouse On Mars May 21 D-Cologne May 22 D-Dortmund May 23 D-Berlin + De:Bug DJs May 24 D-Frankfurt/M.
