Nov11

Hey All – I hope you are all taking a moment to honor our veterans who selflessly served our country in times of need. I personally will never know what that sacrifice feels like, thanks to all those who do. This is the first veterans day that I am not able to thank my grandfather for his service in world war II as he passed away this year. There are so few WWII vets left, let’s all thank them while we still can. Same goes for all other veterans. Thank you. We will be playing a noon acoustic show at veterans memorial auditorium in des moines, ia today in honor of veterans day. Join us if you can.

We have quite a few things to talk about in this installment. I wanted to start by telling you our good friend, and former publicist, Corey Moss is coming to Iowa this week to premier a new film he directed called Dear Jack. Here is some info on the film. . . .
http://www.fleurcinema.com click coming attractions.
One show only! Friday, November 13 at 5:30 pm Director Corey Moss will be here to introduce the film and offer Q&A following the film. With his debut solo album on the horizon, 22-year-old Jack’s Mannequin/Something Corporate singer Andrew McMahon expected big things in 2005. Leukemia wasn’t one of them. Narrated by Tommy Lee, “Dear Jack” chronicles McMahon on a rollercoaster year, through the highs of recording and releasing the first Jack’s Mannequin album and the lows of being diagnosed with leukemia and breaking up with the love of his life. Using a DV camera Sire Records bought him to capture the making of his album, Andrew shot everything before and after that crucial day in May of 2005 when he both finished the project and was diagnosed with cancer. The documentary is a raw look at the battle that is leukemia, from spinal taps to radiation, from using a lint brush to remove your hair to infusing your body with someone else’s stem cells (in this case, Andrew’s sister Kate, coincidently on the exact date his album was released). The film opens on the day Andrew is diagnosed and follows him through every scary, life-changing and intensely personal event that follows. It also flashes back to his childhood, the making of the Jack’s Mannequin album and his collaboration with Lee, one of the last concerts he played before becoming ill, and his relationships with the two most crucial women in his life, his sister and her best friend. “Dear Jack” is a breathtakingly emotional film, as well as a testament to family, friends and, perhaps more than anyone will ever know, a love of making music.

Corey Will be in Ames on the 12th and in Des Moines on the 13th. This is an opportunity too good to pass up. We wish we could be there, but we will be playing shows. So, if you aren’t at our shows, be at his.


In other big news. . . Authentic Records is having a “we should have done this before we moved” inventory reduction sale. Goto http://www.authenticrecordsonline.com for info. Things are going fast, yesterday we sold the last copy of Not a Sound, our first record. Don’t worry, we aren’t breaking up the band, or dissolving the label, just trying to make room for new music.


Also . . . tickets for our Nada Silent Night VII show have just gone on sale. The event is Friday dec 4th at Hoyt Sherman Auditorium in Des Moines. More info on this show soon. In the mean time goto http://www.hoytsherman.com for tickets info.

We have some great shows this week in KC at the record bar on thursday, then friday at the hub in cedar falls, then sat in dubuque at Charlie’s Place, formerly the Silver Dollar. Hope to see you all there. for more info visit http://www.thenadas.com or http://www.facebook.com/thenadas?v=app_2344061033
