"Spent our last day off in NYC wrapping up a couple of interesting projects in the studio that we had in our in-box. Yesterday we did a re-record of 'Take Out the Trash' for the next expansion pack of 'The Sims', which was recorded in Simlish (!?!). Simlish, the language the characters speak in the game, sounds kind of like a gibberish version of Ubby Dubby, French and Spanish, and ends up sounding like a Japanese version of the Sims theme (composed by Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh, originally) with the band and the massive TMBG horns of Dan, Stan and Kurt sitting in. We also did a live session with the whole live crew for XM with an interview with our ol' ol' pal from the Massachusetts days Bill Kates, Subgenius afficionado and all-around kind fellow. That should be on the air very soon.

Evidently, TELEVISION LOVES TMBG! Happy to hear 'Birdhouse In Your Soul' was featured in the 'Pushing Daisies' program, and 'Take Out the Trash' is being featured in promos for 'Dirty Sexy Money', but thanks to touring, we haven't seen 'em ourselves yet! Now if only we could get a song in 'Law & Order'!

Stop by the TMBG myspace page at www.myspace.com/theymightbegiants to say hi, and check out all the new videos!
