Boxer the Horse Just another WordPress weblog 2010-04-12T14:12:15Z WordPress http://boxerthehorse.com/feed/atom/ admin <![CDATA[Music Video]]> http://boxerthehorse.com/2010/04/11/music-video/ 2010-04-12T14:12:15Z 2010-04-12T02:11:22Z We mentioned a while ago that we had shot a video in the attic of our house on Euston street with our friend Gavin Keen with other friends helping out.

The video was shot on an acme 412xb camera and why it took so long to come into fruition is due to the complex nature in which this film is developed. The 412xb actually shoots on 100% complete green film, which is fashioned from birch bark. The technology comes from an old blueprint (that was coincidentally written on a piece of birch bark) constructed by Mi’kmaq. Why it takes so long to develop is due to linguistic coding. The Mi’kmaq drew out the plans in Lnuísimk and so when the film goes to be converted into european standard linear and western time relectivate, it must be “starrated.” That is to say that the film must be laid out in a clearing of the Boreal for

UPDATE: Due to the extreme ignorance illustrated in this blog post, the remainder of the post is being suspended indefinitely. To keep from offending many more people we are going to apologize for bringing the Mi’kmaq into our unnecessarily juvenile and abhorrent blog post that illustrates out immaturity. Here is the video, now tainted with ignorance and potential prejudice:

Note
: it isn’t funny that the poor kid got hurt; it’s funny because of the pure frustration and embarrassment that gets channeled into his cry of defeat  around the 0:13 marker.  Also what is amazing is how cool he walks away from the whole thing, not even acknowledging the guy filming the thing.  Its almost as if we didn’t just see what happened, like he did pull off that double kick flip and is wearing a shirt and  did not just scream like a wookie.

As for boxer news, we are going to post our album in its entirety someplace soon for streaming.  If our webmaster and webcomander cannot get it all together, then we’ll post the thing up on youtube. Maybe we’ll just post it all up on youtube anyways.    The album will also be ready to purchase on itunes and maybe even just off of the site for what? like $10?

-Just watched I (heart) Huckabees for the first time.  Crazy stuff, Marky mark was the shit.

Got a couple of all ages gigs coming up for you young who cannot get into licensed establishments and for you old who cannot stay up to get into licensed establishments:

Friday March 26th at Harmony House Theater (all ages)
Friday April 9th at First Baptist Church (all ages)

“Load up on guns
Bring your friends
It’s fun to lose and to pretend
She’s over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
Yeah!

Hey!
Yeah!

I’m worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my Libido
Yeah!

Hey!
Yeah!

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
A denial! “

admin <![CDATA[some stuff things to say]]> http://boxerthehorse.com/?p=62 2010-03-23T18:23:49Z 2010-03-18T17:50:09Z to those who survived st patricks day,

its been almost a week since the cd release, but HOLY S**T that was fun huh? all of our friends were there. thanks for that, and especially money in the banana stand, molly rankin, and raccoon bandit. for those who were there, you’re well aware that we did not have the physical cd at the show. well now is a good chance to explain why we didn’t ok??

ok well isaac was forced to read some camus for a class at school.  hes writing a autobiography called Snakes Mistakes and the first line was/…. “My father makes ppl feel better physically, my mother makes ppl feel better spiritually, and i make mistakes” (Neily, 1).  he’s now on page 4, where he deals with the fear of having a little brother who can beat him up.

ok well that’s not why we didnt get the cd. but anyway, if you got a burnt copy, here’s the tracklisting:

bad apples,
mary meets the pilot,
pot valiant,
sketch me a glove,
romania,
cat burglar,
mind eraser,
peace on earth,
chez boxer,
everythings better in europe,
tiger

ok now that we got that business over with lets talk cucumbers. did you know the only difference between cucumbers and pickles is vinegar? and then if you get pickles, you just add mustard and then you have your mustard pickles.

anyway, we all live together right? so our driveway has been used by our neighbors dog as a litterbox or something, so we’re kinda stuck in the house. going outside is too risky — its too hard to tell what is mud and what isnt. so in the meantime, we’re gonna try to write some songs and stuff and if you wanna get a cd you gotta come to us. if you don’t know where our house is, i’m sorry but you’ll have to wait until someone uploads it on meganova or limewire or something.

oh yeah, we’re playing tomorrow night at hunters with our favorites Milks and Rectangles. they got a new cd too, so listen to it. until next time,

Well, a certain guitar player deleted his  facebook account with important log-in information stored in the inbox and was too embarassed to reactivate the account solely to retrieve an email only to jump cyber-ship again.  The only option for us then,  was to contact our pal and facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.


I sent Z-Burger a txt message just telling him what happened, and after a series of bro salutations, we got down to business.  Marky Mark gave me the log-in info for the website, told me about the upcoming movie about his life directed by David Fincher,  offered us an internship for facebook.com (which we had to decline solely for tax purposes), and then we just chatted and stuff.   ****UPDATE: Zuckerz has just been added to our Modern Wafare network and he sucks, he has a kd ratio of like 1:6).

Moving on, we’ve got our first full length album finished now and it will be coming out locally on March 12th.
Here is a pint size preview of it below


Starting then you can buy it at our house or at our shows.  Hopefully it will be posted online sometime after that once we figure out wtf html stands for.    We will be putting a track up on myspace shortly too and a video will follow it.

The album is called “would you please”   and you can read all about our upcoming cd release – here http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/event.php?eid=337443562337&ref=mf

There’s 11 songs and was produced by our bro Alec O’hanley who proved himself, if nothing else, to be way better than any of us at both Pokemon Snap and Tetris Attack.

Talk soon,

Great, so it’s Christmas again, and rather than spend this year moping in the map room with a bottle of rum because Robert always gets all of the best presents, we decided to have some fun and write and record a new song.  We were commissioned to do so by recording agent Adam Gallant, who put together a lovely little christmas compilation of artists from PEI which should either be out now, or be coming out shortly.

Our song is entitled “Material Xmas” and you can listen to it maybe right here if I can figure out how to embed audio.
EDIT: I can’t get it to work so just keep reading for further instructions on how to get to our myspace to listen to it.

If you’re still reading then go over to http://www.myspace.com/boxerthehorse  and you can listen to our Christmas Song right there.

In other news,  we’ve got a few shows coming up over the christmas holidays that we would love to see you at.  actually, here’s an idea: just as an experiment to see if anybody actually reads this blog, the next show one of you are at, request a song titled ‘Aragorn, King of Man’.  if nobody request for ole king aragorn then we may be slightly disappointed but in all honesty, we probably won’t be.  it is also important to keep in mind that there is actually no song titled “Aragorn, King of Man” so please do not be mad at us when we do not break out into a middle earth inspired rocker.  Actually, while we are on the subject of the rings, do you guys think that Orks listen to metal?

We are going back into the studio on Sunday to record some more tunes for our upcoming LP, see you outside the matrix.

-boxer.

admin <![CDATA[Boxerthehorse.com laugh! + Piazza Joe’s, gravyrobbers, and 300 Days of Sun]]> http://boxerthehorse.com/?p=40 2009-11-10T21:33:39Z 2009-11-10T21:26:28Z Ok. So, “get a website,” they said, and then we said, “targus.” But then we kind of did. Only our website is not – “here’s our band; here’s our electronic press kit; click here to download ringtones; click here if you live in Truro because trurorock 100.3fm is gonna send you and a…” bullcrap.

We figured that since nobody inside of the matrix is going to EVER come to this website, we are just going to update it with whatever we feel like: ie like a normal blog: ie stuff we think is funny but nobody else will laugh at, some unwarranted social commentary, random lists, the occasional ‘what-the-hell-is-wrong-with-me-life-sucks” post and etc etc.

Don’t Worry, we will still update you on the band and what we are doing creatively as well, however it is only for legal reasons that we wont get into here.

So, if you like our band, you might not like our website, but whatever you might.

Now on with it! Starting next THURSDAY, boxer the horse will be playing at the local italiano restauranto Piazza Joes EVERY THURSDAY NIGHT for a little while. We know what you are thinking. You are thinking Piazza Joes is not a cool place to go to at night unless you are seventeen and what to get drunk and jump around to pokerface and throw the poor bouncer watching it all into a quarter life existential crisis, and you used to be correct. Starting next Thursday, though, we will be playing rock and roll all night every Thursday with other bands. We should also mention that there will be TEN DOLLAR PITCHERS! So even if you hate music, you gotta love it. gotta love it.

What else is new. Concerning our crazy-halloween-extravagravy that went down a couple weeks ago, there has been some confusing surrounding our costumes, which looked something like this:

People were asking “are you burglers??” “whats a gravy robber? you mean grave robber?”  These people were fools.  burglars? grave robbers? nay, we rise above. we are gravy robbers.  We steal the gravy.  We need the gravy. professionally.  Note the image below.

We hope the confusion has been settled.

Now, concerning the second, so called “E.P.” that has been in the works for quite a while. we are closing in on it. relax. it will be ready soon. we are rounding third base. maybe not third base. maybe shortstop/second base area. what do you guys think of the yankees winning the world series? think that Derek Jeter asshole should punch out that other asshole and just marry Madonna already or what? am i right?
