11/24/07
- This website will hopefully be redone when we release our new album early next year.  Until then, go to our MySpace page.
- Lyrics to the new album put up.
- News section added.

09/27/05
- Minor updates, courtesy of Brendan.  Try and find them...it's like "Where's Waldo" without the sexual undertones.

09/26/05
- New songs "The Hardest Part" and "I'm Okay, You're too Fat" added
- Shows page updated

08/16/05
- New song "Say Those Words" added
- Shows page updated
- We finish the new album in November!  Yes!
- Now to watch "Sin City"

06/18/05
- Holy holy holy holy holy holy crap!  New stuff!
- Added a fan page, for our fans...see?
- Lyrics page redone, in a new format and a sleek, sexy black background...oooh baby!
- Added lyrics to the song "Vanilla".  And I don't mean ice, baby.

04/27/05
- Hey!  Something different!
- I also gave the band members page a bit of a touch-up as well.

04/15/05
- Yeah!  Well...Your mother!
- Taking a cue from Brendan, I have added some more stuff to my original liner notes to most of my songs.  Some of them are new enough that I couldn't justify writing more.

04/15/05
- Brendan gets to update the webpage!  Booyah!
- The show is in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, (not Cedar Falls, South Dakota) at the 1109 House.
- A new song, Abomination, has arrived to offend you.
- Major update in transmission.  There's updates to the MP3 page (including our link to our site at Download.com), my own bio and every song that I wrote on the lyrics page.
- If it wasn't obvious, Joe Vampire's surgery was a success, and has not died, so you still have time to get in good with him and get in his living will.
- In other news, Brendan still kicks ass.  More ass than Joe, Aaron, and Stewart combined (only marginally though...)

04/12/05
- We've got shows in Cedar Falls, SoDak and Fon-du-lac, WI coming up!
- To the studio to record some sweet stuff the week of May 16th!
- I found old pictures of us and now they're up for all to see!

03/11/05
- Lyrics to "Sweet and Sorrow" posted.  Look for some more of my sad and bitter lyrics shortly.
- If I do happen to, you know, die, during my surgery.  I'd like to say that this has been the best time of my life and I hope that Brendan, Stewart, and Domeier keep it up.

03/09/05
- We have to take about a month off playing shows here so that I (Joe Vampire) can have surgery.  I'm totally knocking out the fat, or something.  But watch for some dates to pop up in April and May.

01/27/05
- New bio put up. Yes, it is our official, self-serving bio.
- All links on the lyrics page are working.
- Show on Saturday, Feb 12th in Mankato. 21+. Sorry kids.
- My bio updated for no real reason.

01/19/05
- Lyrics to "Deadites and Astronauts" and "Rock Against Squares [aka Huey Lewis is a Lying Prick]" posted.
- Lyrics to "Merry Xmas, Fallujah" will be added soon enough.
- Show on Friday, January 21st in Minneapolis.  We're headlining!  Eat it, ya jive-ass turkeys!

11/11/04
- Holy shit!  For the first time in three years, we've got some new pictures!

08/28/04
- So we've got some shows coming in October, which is good.
- We're going back to the studio to record a single, which is also good.

08/27/04
- Brendan decided to get engaged so give him your congratulations or condolences, whatever you feel is appropriate.
- No. We're not dead, my roommate just made the computer at my apartment explode. Word to the wise: stick with real drugs if you want to get high, computer chemicals are expensive, don't work well, make you sick, and rarely explode.
- We're in the process of writing some really kick ass new songs. I put up the lyrics to one of them.
- Hopefully we'll get some shows here...

06/09/04
- Okay, we've had the albums for awhile and the response has been pretty good.
- Umm...I'd update more, but I don't have regular access to a computer at the moment, which sucks.
- We're in the middle of our usual summer break while Domeier marches around the country for 10 hours a day playing drums.  Fortunately for the band, this is going to be his last year of doing that so we should hopefully go out on tour next summer and maybe this winter.  Although touring around the midwest in winter is not usually the best idea...
- New look for the page coming sometime, hopefully soon.
- We're sending out copies of the CD in the hopes of getting ourselves a record deal so we can quit our jobs, totally sell out, do an ad for Pepsi (it's the choice of the new generation), and do all the hookers and blow we could ever want.

03/16/04
- Album is done and is in the mail to get pressed.  Now we play the waiting game.
- Shows updated.
- The waiting game sucks.  Let's play Hungry, Hungry Hippos!

03/02/04
- Almost everything got some sort of minor update.
- Some new songs available for download @ www.angelfire.com/mn3/missedopportunity unfortunately, those are not mp3s, but .wma files cuz Brendan's computer sucks and won't rip mp3s at the moment.
- The album is so close to being out, I can taste it.  And it tastes good, like sesame chicken.

02/24/04
- New lyrics added.  One of these songs, "Take This Job and Restaff It" will be on our album, the other one, "Let's Just Be Friends" actually has somewhat decent lyrics, but it's not musically a six minute epic tribute to the likes of Iron Maiden so feel free to take your pick of what's better.  Or something.
- Stewart is still a furry.
- New shows coming up soon.  More details later.

01/13/04
- Hopefully all of you have enjoyed some time off in the last few weeks because I haven't had any.
- Album is almost finished!  Yay!

12/13/03
- One of these days I'm going to put up the lyrics to "Take This Job and Restaff It."  Maybe Felix Havoc was right when he said that videogames and the Simpsons are ruining hardcore.  Good thing we're not a hardcore band, right?
- Recording will begin on the 18th!
- Somebody help us out with a cover for the album!

09/23/03
- "Gemini" has been changed to "Castor vs. Pollux" to avoid confusion with that awful Jawbreaker song.

09/22/03
- Updating stuff sucks.
- Songs updated.  Lyrics to "Gemini" will be posted shortly.
- In other news, Maiden is totally sweet!
- We should have a couple shows coming up.  I know we're playing on Halloween at the very least.

07/24/03
- Dude, that was pretty sweet.  I updated a month after my last update.  Rock!
- Contact page updated.
- Brendan and Joe's bios updated.
- Last we heard from Domeier, he ran afoul of a Vietnamese hooker named Minh Ho.  She stabbed him and stole his pants.  If you've seen Domeier's pants contact us immediately.  If he survives this horrible tour of duty, he'll be back on August 11th
- Oh yeah! I'm seeing Iron Maiden on Aug. 10th and you're not!  Eat it!

06/24/03
- We've done some shows but I just haven't put them up cuz...I don't know why.
- We do have at least two shows coming up though.
- Stewart's definitely staying with us or I break his thumbs.
- Ever seen The Sopranos? I'm totally gonna get with Meadow Soprano.

03/08/03
- Yeah, umm...Updating...
- We've got some new song lyrics added.
- New shows added.
- We're gonna get some shows coming up here, even if we're not hip!

01/02/03
- The date is 1-2-3. Let's celebrate...K.  That's enough of that.
- We've definitely got a new guitarist.  He r0x0rz r b0x0rz! F'N L33T!  He shall be performing with us once summer arrives - possibly once or twice before hand.
- New lyrics to one of our new songs added.

12/30/02
- Some things changed here and there.  I'm gonna be doing some pretty minor work on the site over the next few days, like write a new bio.
- If things go well, I'll be able to take down that HELP WANTED ad within the next couple weeks.

11/19/02
- Damn.  Okay, it's official.  I am the laziest man on Earth.
- We're taking this month off from shows so that we can write new stuff and so Domeier can work on his other 'hobby.'  Don't ask.
- Some things updated.  Not much else to do.
- I'm trying to get a picture of Brendan from Halloween.  *shudder*

08/01/02
- Hello kiddies.  As usual, I have lied to my general public, but you know what?  I don't care.  Once I become a huge rockstar, I'm just gonna spit in your faces...And by that I mean that it's time for the update list...
- We've been practicing with a guitarist and it's looking like he may be staying with us.  We'll know soon enough.
- Shows page has been updated.  Not a whole lot coming up, but it's something at least.
- Merch page updated with link to a separate website where you can get some worthless crap!  Yay!
- New song added to the ever-growing list.
- If for some odd reason, you want to learn the guitar parts to our songs, e-mail me.  If enough people want 'em (which I doubt), I'll put them up on the page.  You're not getting Brendan's stuff tabbed though, that'd take way too damned long. Besides, you couldn't play it anyway.
- Join in the crusade to bring back the word "nards".

07/17/02
- Yeah, I'm lazy.  Big deal.  I'd like to have lyrics to a new song before I update the page though. *cough*Brendan*cough*  Also, we may have a lead on a new guitarist, but we're still lookin...

07/05/02
- Okay, this hasn't been updated for a REALLY long time.  Not to worry though, I've just been lazy and not much stuff has happened.  But in the next week [don't hold your breath], I'll put up some more stuff on this page, including new merch, songs, and news.
- LEAD GUITARIST WANTED!

04/08/02
- Aaron's bio updated.
- Shows page updated.
- Two new pictures.

04/01/02
- Brendan's finally got a bio.
- April Fool's Day totally licks hairy, sixty-year-old-man balls.

03/25/02
- Shows page updated.
- I'm sick as all hell and can barely move. Please kill me, sacrifice a goat to your god, or get a shaman to help me out. I'm beggin ya. Please.

03/09/02
- Updated the merchandise page again. The patches will be up for sale by our show on the 16th! Guaranteed*! *Guarantee not valid in the continental US...
- A few show details refined.  Now if those bookers would get back to me with exact dates...

03/07/02
- Get your damn copy of our CD!  NOW!  It's in stores!
- I wonder what got updated?  Hmm....

03/03/02
- Been awhile, a couple things are going down though.
- DEMO WILL BE IN STORES IN KATO BY TUESDAY, MARCH 12!  GUARANTEED!
- New shows added.  Most of 'em are pretty sketchy at the moment, but at least we've got some friggen prospects.

NEW ALBUM IN THE WORKS!
With two albums under our belt, we're working on a third album, which will blow everything that we've ever done away. Stay tuned for details!

This page is now updated by both Brendan and Joe Vampire, making any references to things in the first person confusing and weird.
