The Receiving End Of Sirens sent out the following, vaguely cryptic, MySpace bulletin over the weekend. See if you can put the pieces together.
Hello Friends-
It has come to our attention that some very close friends of ours, also known as Boston's premiere TREOS cover band "The Red Eye of Soromon," have decided to hang up their skates in honor of TREOS doing the same. In an unofficial statement they said "We don't see the point of playing shows now that the real TREOS is coming to an end...it was only fun impersonating them while they were still going and melting faces on a nightly basis." We hope that one day they may change their mind and do some more playing, but for now, we are thankful that they've decided to do one last show for our entertainment...
So, without further ado, we'd like to announce on their behalf, that "The Red Eye of Soromon" will be playing their final show on May 5, at Harper's Ferry in Allston MA. They will be joined by some very special guests, namely "Shit the Tights," a band that Red Eye has done extensive touring with on the cover circuit, playing mostly picnics, backyards, and dive bars. Rumor has it that some other guests will be confirmed for the night, but nothing can be revealed just yet...
So mark your calendars, and put a twenty in that little pocket inside the right pocket on your jeans that you never use so that you don't spend it on a capri sun and a pretzel at Bamboozle, and come join TREOS, ahem, "The Red Eye of Soromon" at Harper's Ferry on May 5th for a special night full of surprises, laughs, tears, all ages romping, and hopefully spandex. Doors are at 6:30.
