Updated the info for the show tomorrow. Yes yes, I know, I'm very slow. Sorry I didn't do it sooner. I hope that doesn't deter you all from coming out! It's going to rock, and the CDs are cool too. I drew the cover for them, so you know they'll look good ;) We'll most likely be playing around 6, but I'd suggest getting there early, just in case. Besides, there's a TON of great bands playing. Hope to see you all there! Here's a poster for the show.

Yesterday, I sat down and hashed out the Tri-Space story, and got myself pretty pumped to work on the comic again!! XD So as a treat, there's an extra comic for this week! (If anyone's interested in a full rant about this topic, head over to my art site and go to the "Rants" section.)

What's this? A new Tri-Space comic? "Impossible!" you say, but I say "Nay, 'tis so!". Number 11 finally posted, in B&W and in color. I'm gonna start doing them regularly again (for reals this time, I hope). Enjoy!

Finally posted up the info for the show tomorrow night. Thw two other bands are touring Ska bands, so it would be awesome if everyone came out to support them!! Should be a pretty fun show! Hope to see you all there!

Well. Some news for those of you who heard about our show on the 28th with Easy Big Fella (their very last show, btw), and for those who didn't. It looks like there was some confusion and we'll not be opening the show :( If you're interested in the show, it's May 28th, 9pm at the Sunset Tavern in Seattle. We can at least take solace in the fact that they asked us to open; we're very honored, and Easy Big Fella will be missed. Sorry everyone, but hope to see you all at the show this Friday at least! It's going to be great!! For those of you itching to catch a good ska show, this will definitely be a good one! And for once, I think we're going to be the only ska band without horns!

Last minute show, tomorrow at the Hellhouse. It's the singer from Mind Candy's (Jason) birthday, so everyone come out to wish him a happy birthday. Hope to see you all there!! (IT'S FREE!!) More shows posted, too.

After a CRAZY first week of April, the Tripods are still keeping busy. We've got a few more shows in the works, as well as the elusive recording I've mentioned a few times now. I'm going to be in Arizona until the 28th, so I won't be able to update the site with new shows info. But! To tide you all over, we've got:
  • A completely re-vamped music page.
  • The entire The Tripods album up, low quality wma.
  • The entire Suck My Pinky album up, low quality wma.
  • 3 clips from the new recording. Please keep in mind that these are rough mixes (very rough). They're our way of saying thanks for everything, we couldn't do it without you! Songs: Gold, I Dwell, Suicide
  • So head on over to the music section and grab the songs, then leave us some feedback on the forum! See you all in a week!

    The show Saturday was a blast, thanks to everyone who came out!! Tuesday's show should be just as fun, but we do play pretty late. I've posted the info up on the shows page, so check it out. Hope to see you all there!

    Well! It's been a while since the last update, my appologies. We've got two more shows lined up, so check out the shows page for more info. I also made the viewing window a bit larger; the small size makes several pages a bit difficult to view. I know it didn't fix much, but you'll have to give me some more time before I get a chance to re-design the site once again.

    We've got another show lined up, this one for April 6th, and a few more in the works. Keep checking the shows page for more info; it'll get updated as soon as I get information. We had our first recording date this past Sunday, and it went pretty well. At the rate we're going, we'll average about 3 songs a recording session, which we're doing once a week. You can do the math (18 songs total). I'll see if I can get a pre-mix of some of the songs to share with you all soon.

    Shows page has been updated. More info about the April 8th show will be posted soon. We're going to start recording this Sunday, so hopefully we'll make it through all NINETEEN SONGS (over the next several weeks) without killing ourselves. Recording can be quite grueling, so we'll do our best to stay alive so we can keep performing for you all ^^

    Holy cow, another update! Just wanted to let you all know that we've been added to the rotation for the online radio station Seattle Punk Radio. It's just starting out, but it's going to become a great show as more bands get added. In addition to the 3 songs from "Name It", I've added in "GOLD" for your listening pleasure. Be sure to check it out!

    Updated the links page, finally. Anyone who has us linked that I missed, post it up on the forum and I'll get it taken care of! Tentative start of recording: 2 weeks. I'm thinking we'll aim for a late spring/early summer release and then try for earlier ^^ Got some shows in the works, so check the shows page often.

    Wow to everyone who was at the Hellhouse show on the 6th. It was by far the craziest show we've ever played!! It was all nuts, with people being thrown through the window, us being forced back into the corner so more people could dance, gettin hit in the face with the microphones... It was some good stuff!

    In other news, I've updated the lyrics section with a new song. Also, the Tripods are going to start recording a full length pretty soon, so more details on that as they come up. No shows confirmed right now, but I'll post details as soon as they are. Take care, everyone!

    Thanks to those who came out to the show on Saturday, it was good! We debuted two new songs, whose lyrics are now on the site. We'll be playing them again this Friday, so come and check them out! In the meantime, I am going to do some quick appologizing about the lack of comic updates; the lack will extend just a bit longer, until I buy a new scanner. Hope to see you all at the party Friday!

    Updated the shows page. Thanks to those who came out to the show at the Uptown on Saturday. After this show on the 31st, we're going to make sure we play all ages shows; it sucked royally to have Kindah stand outside the whole time.

    01|04|04 3:37pm
    Did a few small fix-ups for the site, nothing major. We have a couple shows in the works, which I'll get posted up as soon as I can. In the meantime, the info for the 17th show has been posted. And other than that, I, the worst comic updater in the world, am going to be posting 2 new comics by tomorrow morning.

    I got back from Whistler today, and it seems that Joel was unable to updated the comics; haven't yet talked to him, so I don't know what happened with it. I've put up the 2 color comics as promised, and will try my best to have a comic up late tomorrow night. For now though, I'm gonna get some sleep! Hope you are all having a wonderful holiday!
    -Aida-


    12|19|03 06:08pm
    Hello everyone! I will be going up to Whistler for a week this coming Sunday. The ever-awesome Joel will be helping me with the comics. Since I haven't really had time to draw extras, you'll get a couple colorized strips. And word on the street is that "At Practice" may get an update sometime as well! Stay tuned. More show info will be up as soon as I get back. Hope you all have an excellent holiday!

    We want to thank everyone that came out to the shows this weekend, they were both a lot of fun!! We've got a show coming up January 17th at the Uptown; more info on that will be posted soon.

    Got a few pics up from the Stash Spot show, courtesy of Dennis from A Lesson In Chaos.

    Since we had such a crazy weekend, I didn't have time to finish up this week's comic. I'll try and have it up by Wednesday.

    Quick update: changed the format of the "Fun" section, and updated the comic indexes. I'm working on making color versions of all the strips, to be released sporadically as I finish them.

    Thanks to everyone that made it out to the Studio 7 show the other night we had a blast! Don't forget we have a show on the 14th as well. Kiley and Matt, thanks for playing with us, it was fun!

    Thanks also for everyone who's left some comments about GOLD in the forum. The mix will be up for a few more days, so grab it before it's taken down if you want it, and don't forget to leave a few comments.

    [edit @ 3:43pm] Added pics from our Studio 7 show. All pics will be under the "About" section.

    And for all you wonderful and patient comic fans: To say sorry for being such a slacker, I've just put up last night's comic in full color!! Enjoy!

    Shows page has been updated!

    We've got a show coming up this Saturday at Studio 7. Should be lots of fun. For those old-school fans, we've asked Kiley and Matt (our horn players) to come play with us for a few songs at the show. And be ready for some Star Wars fun, too!

    We've also got a show on December 14th at the Ballard Fire House. Big line-up, starts early. Check out the shows page for more info. Hope to see everyone at the shows!!

    The song we're doing for the compilation is "Gold". In order to make the mix sound as purty as we can, I've posted a link on the forum to an mp3. Please, go listen to it and leave your comments. And get everyone you know to do the same. It would help us out tremendously! Thanks everyone!!

    Thanks to everyone who came to the show on Saturday. It was a lot of fun!! If anyone took pictures or knows someone who did, please get ahold of me; I'd love to put pics of us in our Counter Strike costumes up on the site.

    We recorded a new song for a compilation that will be put out by Local Chaos soon, called "Underground Explosion 2". It'll feature lots of local bands, and is planned for an early December release. More info about it as we get it!

    Since I'm mixing the song, the comic is delayed again. I am a terrible webcomic doer :( Please forgive me everyone!

    Just a quick update to the lyrics. Fixed some typos and added the name of the person who wrote each lyric. In case you're wondering about the order of the lyrics, they're in order of when we wrote them with the oldest on top, newest at bottom. Should we alphabetize them and just highlight the new ones?

    Thanks to everyone that came out to the show last night, we had a blast! It was awsome to see you all again; we got to see several people that we hadn't in a while. Just a quick note to let you all know that the show on the 15th had been moved to last night and we didn't know, so it won't be happening :( We'll try to get some more shows lined up so we can see you all again soon. Take care everyone!

    Hey all! We submitted a song to a killer comp about a year ago and we finally got them! It's a 2-disc set, Punk vs. Ska! Third's on it as well (even more reason to snag one!). We'll be selling them for $10, so if you come out to the shows tonight or tomorrow you can pick one up! Also, I've added a discography section to the site, so if you want to check out the track listings for anything, it's all there. Hope to see all your smiling faces tonight!

    I goofed on the shows page and swapped the 7th and 8th shows. Got that fixed now, so be sure you've got the dates right if you're planning to come. Sorry everyone! Also, I put up the directions to the Martha Lake show.
    -Aida-


    07|25|03 01:47pm
    Arrite, got some shows listed. When we hear what the venue will be for the 8th show, I'll post it immediately. Hope to see you all there! It's been a while, and we're ready to have fun with you guys again. For now, enjoy the comics and the new background I put up using the latest Tri-Space strip!

    Hello everyone! A few things:
  • Just a quick update about the comic. Joel's going to be taking over the At Practice strip from now on, and I'll be doing the Tri-Space strip. Since there's the two of us working now, At Practice will be updated on Thursdays, and Tri-Space will be updated on Sundays. That's two strips of Tripods-y goodness a week for you all! Hope you enjoy them!
  • We've got a show in August lined up that should be a lot of fun. I'll get more info up about it soon.
