Baby, you've been so patient with us. It's been almost two years since our
first show, and by now, you must be dying for it, if you catch our drift. But
we want you to know that it's filled our hearts full knowing that you stood by
us all this time, and now...it's time for your reward.

The album is done.

Woah woah woah! Control yourself! It's natural that you're so curious and
anxious, but let's just go through this slowly and softly and it'll be so much
better.

When can you hear the album? Right now:

http://www.the-positions.com/sounds.html (click "launch", click "Someday")

See, before the album comes out, you can only hear it on this little player that
we built. It's not much, because we built it in our dad's woodshed with sticks,
mud, some electronics ripped from a Teddy Ruxpin we found at the dump and
homemade versions of Photoshop and Flash. I know it doesn't look like much, but
it's the best we could do considering our tools and that the only person we
could look to for advice was a hobo named Jake who claimed to have invented
Flash, and he was pretty high on varnish most of the time, so we were mostly on
our own.

Anyway, there it is, the full, sequenced, mastered album in all its glory. Hope
it makes your feet tap and hips swivel, at least a little.

So what's the album going to be called? We don't know yet. We've had a lot of
fun with possible album titles, and while almost all of them have made us laugh,
very few of them are titles we would want to admit to. Do you have any ideas?
Seriously. Reply to this mail with your album title suggestions, and even if we
don't use them, they'll make our already-entertaining list of rejected album
titles.

When's it coming out on a CD that you can show off to your friends? That's also
a question mark. But it's going to be released on Lazyline Records out of
Atlanta, which is run by our pal Manav and is home to the sweet, sweet sounds of
our friends in Pagoda. We haven't even moved our stuff in yet and it already
feels like home.

What's the album cover going to look like? Another excellent question, babe,
and it's one that we're still thinking on. If you have a doodle or good photo
or grilled cheese sandwich with religious iconography in it that you've always
thought would make a good album cover, send it on to us. We may not use it, but
we can at least promise that we won't laugh at it. Actually, we can't promise
that at all, but send it anyway.

So now that you know the whole album by heart, you'll want to know when you can
see us next. Well, you don't have to wait long for that either. This coming
Sunday, we're playing a hot show at the Warehouse Theater Next Door down by the
new convention center with the justifiably hyped and followed Two If By Sea from
Baltimore and Oxford Collapse from NYC. It's a great lineup if we don't say so
ourselves. We go on first, at around 9:00.

But if we don't see you then, just enjoy the album, have a joyous December, a
happy New Years and we'll see you again in 2005.

All for you,
The Positions
