Grandfather Clocks Lyrics + New Tour Dates + Other Fun Stuff

Better late than never, right? I finally posted the lyrics for G-Clocks--you can check them out here. I have also put a permanent link in the sidebar on the right. The three of us are taking this week to get our personal belongs together/wrap up loose ends before we move. Brian is up at his parent's in Chicago and Chris is up in Akron doing the same.

As for moi, I'll be spending the next week setting up shop in the basement--writing the next batch of Slow Claw jams. I'm looking forward to getting back to the music basics, being creative and bumming around the house while drinking far too much coffee for my own good. Currently, I have no form of employment and will have some free time on my hands--don't hesitate to hit me up before I leave.

Chris has been busy booking more Slow Claw tour dates (imagine that) and we've already posted a handful of them. Check them at the MySpace or Facebook. We're pumped to get back to a few of our favorite cities, and as always, we would love to see everyone out. For all of our Cincy friends--don't forget about CincyPunkFest 8!!! It's April 10th and 11th at Southgate House. We're playing Saturday @ 9 or so in the Ballroom, however, this is for a good cause and you should just come out for both nights to support all the amazing local acts.

I'm still working on getting some pictures and videos up--be patient, please :)

No Complaints 2K9

We just arrived back in OH, and although we're pretty beat, we couldn't have asked for more from our recent excursion. The Florida dates were a blast, as expected, and despite an 11 hour drive from Mobile, AL, our time in Texas was awesome. We'd like to thank everyone that came out to the shows and hung out--we met a ton of new faces and are excited to get back out and see everyone again.

That being said, we're not taking much time to rest--there's always work to be done. We have a few shows coming up (CincyPunk Fest April 11th!!) and we'll be announcing our May tour soon. I'm sorting through the random pictures and videos that we have from this past tour and I'll be posting them asap.

Slow Claw's Mountain Top BBQ Adventure


We stopped off at an exit located on the Pigeon River, deep in the mountains on our drive to Asheville. Our intention was to use a post office, but it had already closed. Fortunately this sign caught our eye on our way back to the highway. The rustic building, combined with the sweet smell and our noticeably empty stomachs meant that we would have to try this Smoky Mt. eatery.


It started off well--agreeable prices and friendly service from the staff. Since it's known for its BBQ, all three of us chose the pulled-pork platter.


I chose my poison--homemade BBQ sauce and tabasco--and let the sandwich have it. I like it spicy and I didn't hold back.


Chris thoroughly enjoyed every bite. To mask the tears of joy and delight caused by his meal, he was required to wear his sunglasses.


Brian made sure to add the correct amount of salt to the mound of crinkle-cut fries on his plate.


For all the times I've driven that stretch of I-40, I've never once stopped at that exit. It was a fantastic find and I would imagine there are many places similar to this that have yet to be discovered. From now on we'll be on the lookout. MmmMm.
