This isn't just us donating "all profits" or whatever, no, we're donating significantly more than we make on every CD sale, and it is in addition to CDBaby's donation.
Perhaps coincidentally, also on Saturday, fluffy ordered a bunch of fancy socks from Sock Dreams (various argyles, mostly), also in Portland, and they arrived today.
This means that it is mathematically impossible that, assuming they both took I-5 (and really, why wouldn't they?), the Sockpuppet CDs and the new non-puppet socks didn't pass each other on the freeway during their respective journeys. There is something inherently poetic about that, although we're not quite sure what.
Anyway, the potential for confusion is simultaneously both immense and minuscule. This has only steeled our resolve to finally get a dang album out sometime in the next decade, however!
Very soon fluffy will be looking for a new full-time bass player and a full-time drummer (which Sockpuppet never had to begin with). If you're interested, contact fluffy[at]beesbuzz[dot]biz.
Hey, there's another band named SockPuppet now. I'm actually surprised it took this long for someone else to come up with this "clever" band name. (They formed after us, but they have more full-time members — meaning more than one — and actually get around to having gigs regularly so I guess they deserve to be better-known.)
Relatedly, don't forget The Handpuppets (who I don't think have a website) who are another mostly-Song Fight band.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: The one true Sockpuppet has prevailed.fluffy needs to get laid.
