The Ould Triangle August 16 2008
 
new show: August 16th at The Ould Triangle
  Patrick Clayton is bringing three bands through town (Role Mach and OK Vancouver OK, from Vancouver, and Karoacake from Paris, France), and asked us to set up a gig so that we could play a show together. See you there!
new music Walking The Border
  Ben Tansey, The Tremendous Seattle Circumnavigator, wrote us some words and even came down and put down some backing vocals. Barry's on there too, as is SpudNut on violin. That's Spud assaulting a defenseless guitar.
new music I'm Outstanding
  Jeffery B. Williams of the Pathetic Wannabees penned this gruesome number and sat in on both guitar and drums, so we submitted it to SongFight! as "Pathetic Octothorpe".
new music! Nur Ein III: The Heat is On
update: We made it as far as round 3
  "The Blitz" was our undoing in this survivor-style competition among 25 SongFight! bands. You can hear our entries here, including the last entry, which we like better than the judges did.

  "These guys have something going for them. I'm not sure what it is, but it's something."
shows: 2008 SongFight! North American West Coast Tour
We did it. Four nights in a row, April 4-7! Portland, Seattle, Spokane, and Moscow, Idaho.
cd release: Drink to Bones That Turn to Dust
Mad Dog and Spud acted as MCs, and Octothorpe performed their cover of Oingo Boingo's "Little Guns" at a CD Release Party at Jillian's in Seattle on October 28, 2006. 17 bands recorded Oingo Boingo covers for this tribute album, which was released on the Dep't of Records label on October 31.
on cd: Beer and Salad Days
  Our third CD was released on Monday, June 20, 2005. If you buy one of these, you can be pretty much assured of being not only the first on your block, but very likely the only one on your block for some time to come.
comic: The Mighty Octothorpe Vol. #1
  The comic book was release on Thursday, May 26, 2006, and we sold about 100 of them! Send us a fiver and your address, and we'll see if we can't dig one up for you! PayPal button at the above link.
