It's Been a While

Hey Everyone,

Wanted to let you know, I didn't fall off of the blogging wagon. Blogging wagons can be purchased at IKEA for $14.99. Get it? It's because IKEA has such weird names for furniture. Wacky. Anyway, the reason I haven't written in a while is because I recently moved, so my time has been dedicated to packing, moving, unpacking, and waiting a week for them to get the Internet to work in my new house.

For those of you stalking me, you're probably saying to yourself, or to a small doll of me you fashioned out of Tootsie Roll wrappers, "Dave, didn't you just have a baby?" It's true. Let's just say my wife has a weird idea of nesting. We had a baby, and on the same day sold our house. The real estate agent actually came to the hospital so we could sign the papers and we didn't have another house lined up. There's nothing like giving birth to a child and in the same day raising it's chances of being homeless.

Alas, we bought a house a week later and this past week we were able to move in. One of the really cool parts of moving in was when we moved on the day of an Ice Storm. I'd complain, but the movers we hired would probably resent me for it.

So we're all in and getting settled. The kids have adjusted well. My 2 year old has a bigger room, so he's pumped and the 2 month old isn't talking to us, but I blame infancy more then animosity. My dog, August, seems a little ticked, but that's mostly because she's a Jets fan. My wife doesn't want me to put my new address on here, but I'm sure we can fit the 5 of you who read this in the new place. Anyway, I'll be blogging again soon about a recent show Brian and I just did at a college in California. . .Pennsylvania. Go Steelers! (Sorry August and John Lough).

New Year's Resolution

Hey Everyone,

New Year's Resolution seem to be pretty popular. People vow to lose weight, quit smoking, or stop watching Glee, but something always makes them fall. Darn you Will Schuester!

I have never been one to make resolutions because I know I can't keep them. Actually, last year I tried to make myself feel better by resolving not to keep my resolutions. Unfortunately, by succeeding, I failed.

If you are having a hard time coming up with some resolutions, let me throw some at you that you may have an easy time doing.

-Buy a Dave and Brian CD at DaveAndBrian.com and play it for all of your friends. One of my resolutions is that my kids can eat)

-Start pronouncing the word "creek," "crick." I'm not sure why, but it's something I started doing and find it very satisfying.

-Memorize all the lyrics to Taylor Swift's songs so you can sing along when they come on the radio while alone in the car, but pretend you have no idea who she is when in the company of others (I know we all do this already, but let's shoot for doable things).

-Give boxes of Count Chocula to any teenage girl you may know and tell them it's because you know how much they love that Twilight. This act will make you simultaneously lame to some aspects of society and awesome to others.

-If anyone invites you to participate in Farmville, unfriend them. Seriously. Pick up a phone, and tell them you REALLY don't want to be friends anymore.

Those are just a few things that you can try and maybe they'll work out. If not, don't worry about it. It's already 2011 and according to a recent John Cusack film I saw, the world will be ending soon. I mean "Con Air" was right on so many things.

2011: The Year of Dave and Brian?

Happy New Year Friends!

So this is the self proclaimed, Year of Dave and Brian. What can this mean? We don't know? Maybe our Dork Anthem Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbs-gBEgIrs) will go viral, maybe Hot Pockets will hear our song and make it their new promo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjaSWtL7LY8), or maybe we'll get jobs at Medieval Times where we can shovel horse manure and call people wenches. We understand that this last one can really be done anywhere, but we also understand that it's more acceptable at Medieval Times. No matter what, the sky is the limit.

What we do know is that there will be new material coming your way mixed in with all of the fan favorites. Some people have asked when we will be making a new music video. We are currently working on some ideas, and will keep you updated. The biggest thing is that you apparently need money to make good ones. Where can we get this money? Either more CD sales, or the government can bail us out and you can write a Congressman. We'd tell you to write yours but they're probably busy. Why not write Congressman Earl Pomeroy (http://www.pomeroy.house.gov/), North Dakota's Congressman? He's probably not doing anything.

Keep your eyes open for Dave and Brian in 2011. If you are interested in booking a show, contact Kelsey Bufkin (kelsey@daveandbrian.com) soon. We are already booking dates! See you soon.

Dave
