I'm heading for the road in September. Below is a list of states I will be traveling through. I'm looking for bands in these areas who want to set up shows and possibly places to crash, although I also plan on camping along the way. Send me a message on Myspace or email me at mail@geraldprokop.com if you can help.
Dates are tentative but generally I plan to leave MN to the south in early September and arrive back from the east in late September, being on the road for about three weeks.
Iowa
Nebraska
Colorado
New Mexico
Texas
Arkansas (or Oklahoma, Missouri)
Illinois
Indiana
Wisconsin

The new EP, Enormous Problems, is ready and available for purchase through Prokiev Projects + Publishing or Snocap.
Enormous Problems is an eight-track, partly instrumental CDR with lots of noisy keyboards and transistor overdrive. Two tracks from it, \"Woken in Half\" and \"The Drill Return\" are up on Myspace and you can also stream the album at iLike and Last.FM.
The physical package includes an inkjet-labeled CDR with photocopied art, a fictional text and a Prokiev sticker, housed in a clear bag. Buy it at Prokiev Projects + Publishing
Buy the MP3 album on Myspace, in the Snocap store.

I'm working on the next full length record, which I hope to release this summer. In the meantime, I'm polishing up (if you can call it that) some tracks to release in May as a CDR EP, entitled \"Enormous Problems.\" It'll be available from Prokiev Projects + Publishing and Snocap.

I have a new band member joining the lineup, drummer Chris Pappas. He will be playing with Sarah and I on Saturday, February 28th at Fort Awesome. It's exciting to be raising the volume level and making the songs from Exits + Obstacles come alive in real time!
I also have a totally different project in the works: recording another band. Bla Bla Blacksheep, my friends, fellow zinesters and travelmates, are letting me record their album for them. I'll be documenting it on my blog.
I added some stuff to the top of the website so you can subscribe to the periodic news feed (this), receive RSS notification of upcoming shows and subscribe to my monthly email newsletter.
