the avenues street fair in salt lake city this year will be held on 7th avenue on saturday, september 11th (9/11).  the killerbuds have officially applied for a booth at the fair!  they’ve been hard at work making cassette tapes, paper crafts, stickers, cds, and other things to have available for sale at the fair.  here’s a picture of some of the stuff they’ll have.

so you should consider stopping by and you should consider telling all your friends.  in addition, there are several new projects that will soon be finished.  mz mona mars has teamed up with zap gun to make a mixtape together and sources indicate that it’s very nearly complete.  look out for snakes! has a second album that is almost done.  heavy petting has a new album that could come out practically any day.  and a new band called meet the buds has started writing songs about all the killer buds.

in the mean time, enjoy the second theme song cover by crime school.  this time they decided to make a version of the theme song to one of their favorite movies, the blob.

nope, this update isn’t about any new we’re petrified! shows.

the update is that those lazy-ass killer-buds finally gave me enough files to put together a decent version of the “we’re petrified!” tab.  i guess i’m one of the buds now too, but i’m talking about the ones who do the music and the videos and the artwork and stuff.  “who are you then?” you might be wondering.  the answer is that i am francis p. rutherford III, the new webmaster for killerbuds.net.  i go by frankie if you ever email me or if you see me around town.  so maybe you remember when the killerbuds.net website looked terrible.  well, that was before i took over the webpage duties.  now the page looks way better.  i’m still making some improvements and trying to sort through all the archival stuff the buds have given me, so there will be new stuff up from time to time.  keep your expectations tempered since they don’t pay me for my time.

anyways, the “we’re petrified!” tab is cool now.  there’s footage from 3 of their concerts last year as well as concert posters.  i’m sorting through pictures of the band’s live shows to put up later.  for now though, go to the “we’re petrified!” tab and click on the shows in the left bar to see some footage from those shows.  footage like the one just above.
