What Song Do You Wanna Hear? Help Us Choose a Cover.

Hello peeps.  It's been awhile.  Kick off your shoes and sit a spell.  Have a drink and let's shoot the shit.  What the Hell am I talking about?  I really don't know to be honest with you.  We've been out of the loop for a few weeks, so I thought it would be good to get everyone back into the groove with an update and a little challenge to our fans.  

First off, we're getting back to the rehearsal studio in a serious way.  The break has been good for body, mind, and soul, but now it's time to get back to work.  We're playing our chops back into shape and getting back to our process of rapid-fire, spontaneous jamming.  This is our process. I listen to hours of this material to decide what becomes an Oatmeal Conspiracy tune.  It can be brutal, but we love it.  Inspiration ebbs and flows however, which brings me to the main reason for this post.

We would like to ask you, our fans, to help us come up with some cool covers to learn and perform at shows.  We have a lot of fun bringing new material into our sets, but sometimes it's difficult to narrow down what covers would work.  We will take all the cover song ideas you guys submit, record them, and put them up as a Download of the Week for everyone to enjoy.  Sounds fun, right?  If you want to submit a song for us to cover, simply email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

That's all for now.  Don't forget to come see us open up for Bolweevil on March 4th at The Pour House Music Hall.
