To honor Harry Potter, which we do in an creepily obsessive-kind of way, we've put up the faux-British version of our tune for you to enjoy. Also, a link to a sample from our newly-mixed and rather cool regular (if you can call anything we do regular) version. Also, a link to where you can buy this new mix, and / or the whole new CD, UDDER WON.

And, be sure to listen to our album mega-mix, also for free.

New fan art, too.

UPDATE - All the tracks from the new CD are available for purchase RIGHT NOW in our on-line store

1) THE NEW CD!!!!!

First, mucho thanks for all of you who have waited patiently (or not) for the new CD. Your support of see dee and our shows have allowed us to finally produce another album, so we proudly announce:

moosebutter: udder won

Available for pre-order NOW on our website or through mail. Or if you happen to see one of us on the street but would you LEAVE ME ALONE ALREADY?!??!!? CD will be available at all our upcoming shows -- beginning July 1st!!!!

What is on the blasted cd, you query intensely? udder won contains fan favorites like The Valentine's Day Song, Doug, Harry Potter, and Witch Doctor. There are also brand new songs that you will soon grow to love like Uncle Earl's Hairpiece, Still the Shortest, Rubber Monkey, Jon Boy Jon, Hicksville and I Hate Mosquitos. There are also some short little sparkling nuggets, that you'll kind of forget about after a month or so, and at least one song that will irritate you to no end and that you'll never be able to get out of your head.

It's a bunch more great vintage wacky moosebutter music! And it's on sale NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW. Now already. Website or at shows. Now.
By the way the first pre-sale was to a cool guy at last week's Springdale, UT show who didn't leave his name but did leave his email address which we won't print here.

2) New T-shirt sizes.

We now have children's T-shirt sizes in black and white. Also available on the website or at shows. Also all sizes are back in stock, if you haven't had yours mailed to you yet it will come within the next week.

3) Summer shows

Summertime shows are here, so pull out your camcorders, dust off your tape recorders, and dig out your wax cylinder etching machine and come record our shows! That's right, we encourage you to bootleg our concerts and pass the copies around. All we ask is that you send us a copy of your recording! Also be courteous with your equipment and don't crush any native animal life with heavy equipment.

Hey Tim, Chris, Glen & Wes

I direct "5-Alone", a high school a cappella group at the Pioneer Valley Performing Arts Charter Public School in Hadley, MA. You may have heard of us.....the first high school group EVER to be admitted to compete in the National Harmony Sweeps (Boston semi-finals).

Anyway, we love your stuff, and I transcribed your arrangement of "Star Wars" for them just so we could sing it as we waited in line for Star Wars last week AT MIDNIGHT on Wednesday (sneak preview). There were hundreds of character-clad fans in line, and we went several hours early to sing for them all. The local NPR radio station did a story on us
( http://publicbroadcasting.net/wfcr/news/content/773706.html ).
I actually took all of my students to see the movie that night - it was a blast.

I hope you don't mind that I transcribed your song without permission; I apologize for not asking first. I thought you might want to know about our fanatical Star Wars stories, since you sound like fans yourselves. Let us know if you ever come out east and we'll all be there to see you. Heck, we'll open for you and help round up an audience - you guys deserve to be heard!

Regards,

Tony Lechner
Director, 5-Alone
