Substitute Rocking

HIATVS has been thinking about coming off hiatus some time in May or June of 2016, by way of a rocknroll house party. Stay tuned.

In the meanwhile...

Our sister band GUPPY EFFECT is playing a rock-n-roll show worthy of HIATVS’s endorsement this Friday Jan. 8^th. Not only is it a free show, but it’s also in the sweet zone preferred time frame of 6-9 PM on a Friday at a non-sh!tty new alternative music venue.

To wit, the Bos Meadery (849 E. Washington Ave, Madison WI), a venue favored for HIATVS's hiatus from hiatus in a few months. Should be a great way to end your work week. It's a totally free show.

The Chips Are Down - Half a Day Left to RSVP!

Hey everyone!

There is only one day left to RSVP for the house concert via the Kickstarter with a suggested donation ($5).

Please do so if you are planning to attend.

GO HERE - www.kickstarter.com/projects/476400861/a-hiatvs-house-concert

The house concert is happening no matter what, but if we do not hit the funding goal for food and drink (the band is pro bono!), we will have to switch to a BYO food/drink model.

And that's fine - we have done it before - but we really prefer if you can contribute via the Kickstarter so we can hit our goal and get a good idea of head count and funding level.

Thanks and HIATVS loves you!

Open Jam/Stage at Funk's Pub (Fitchburg, WI)

Dear Friends of HIATVS.

HIATVS is still on hiatus, but that doesn't stop us from updating you on our goings on now and then.

First off, we will be suspending the hiatus briefly on Saturday June 7, 2014, so that we can reunite to perform at a Slip-n-Slide Garden Party in Mt. Horeb WI that afternoon.

HIATVS performed at this last summer and we had a phenomenal time. There was headgear. There was a slip-n-slide. There was rampant self-expression. All of these things are on track to be there this year. You have not lived until you have donned a man thong and dived onto a slip-n-slide while being sprayed with a hose and trying to catch a hurtling football all at the same time.

It's an invite only kind of party, so drop us a line for additional deets if you are keen on coming to see us at the funnest party happening anywhere that day.

Second, for the slightly less adventurous, HIATVS's very own Manwich has been attending a weekly Sunday open jam/stage at Funk's Pub in Fitchburg with his other band, GUPPY EFFECT.

It's from 8 to 10 PM every Sunday night and it is a great time. Free admission and lots of good local bands, plus great food and beer.

If you feel like your weekend is too short (when isn't it?) and it needs that little extra push over the cliff, stop on down to Funk's for an hour or two and finish the weekend off in style before returning to the Monday grind. You know...because THE MAN don't rock!

If you are lazy or don't live within a reasonable distance of Funk's Pub, you can always watch the live stream online at ustream.tv.on Sunday nights from 8 to 10 PM. And if you can't watch it in real time, the past jams are archived HERE. Watch them at any time. We hope you can participate. So easy.

Below is a clip from a recent jam that features GUPPY EFFECT. The rocking at 21:21 is superb.
