Our sources tell us that it shouldn't be much longer before our debut album is for sale on iTunes. I wish it were all good news, but the breadpig band broke up last week. Jon and Brian didn't like the artistic direction the band was going in. Basically, we got too big, too fast. They felt like we'd sold out -- that we weren't true to our music. It's simply not true, but I'm doing what I can as a now solo bassist to keep this band, and our dreams, alive. Breadpig loyalists, I trust you'll stick with us through...

I didn't expect this interview, but Julia is busy launching her life-casting startup, NonSociety -- I should have known everything is fair game. We'd met for coffee to catch up, but I also had to ask the new Wired cover girl about all the scorn that's been heaped on her. Yes, she's handling it well. Oh, and I happen to be wearing the breadpig Dreaming of Androids shirt. Bonus exposure!

A passionate breadpig supporter picked up an issue of the Washingtonian for us all to enjoy. I've zoomed in on the best part. You can read the rest of the article below. By day, Alexis Ohanian is a Web product manager. By night, he's a rock god. I can't make this stuff up. Thanks for your support, Washington - the breadpig is proud to wear the mantle of "best new bar game band in DC." Also, I would argue that, as musicians, we have less talent than Spinal Tap -- much less.

Where's the justice? The band featured in this video opened for us, like, three years ago. And they still cower in the shadow of the mighty breadpig. Don't be fooled, if it weren't for a lingering contract issue we had, it'd be Brian Femiano rocking out on the guitar solo.

The intrepid Mme. Helena R. Brown campaigned for a "breadpig day" at the Wired office on Thursday. The result was a bunch of us in breadpig shirts (David was, too, but had just cast invisibility when the picture was taken) and a lot of confused Wired employees. Thanks for making my day, everyone.
