Man Born Blind

It’s been a while, but this is a video of Man Born Blind’s very first gig, July 2005 at the Lobo Theater.

Burn it, give it away, put it in your iPod or on a P2P network… whatever you want to do with it! Here’s our album free and available to anyone who wants it:

• Right-click > “Save As…”

Enjoy!

[the MP3s are in a "rar" archive - you can use a free application such as "ExtractNow" to unzip it and do what you want with 'em!]

You can now stream a few of our tunes right here on manbornblind.com. Head on over to the newly added MUSIC page and check ‘er out!

We’re really honored and humbled to have picked up two NM Music Awards Last night for Best Album Packaging for our debut album “Man Born Blind” and Best Rock Alternative song for “Safety Net.”

We want to say a huge thank you to every one who has supported us and encouraged us along the way — we could not have done it with out you!

Please consider picking up a copy of our CD (also on iTunes) if you haven’t already, and definitely check out the other finalists and winner from this year’s NMMAs at http://www.newmexicomusicawards.com/

Happy St. Patrick’s day from us to you! Don’t forget your green, or else a leprechaun will sneak up and pinch you. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Speaking of leprechauns, here’s a little something to get you in the St. Patty’s day spirit!

Thanks to all of you who’ve made the transition with us over to the new address. First off, the friendship we’ve found with the people we’ve met in the course of our musical endeavours has been absolutely incredible, and secondly, it’s great to able to have such a genuine interaction with you all at our shows and through things like our myspace page. Together, we can push for what’s right and just in this world.

Thanks again, and keep moving forward!

Give this fella, Rocco Deluca a listen the next time you’re looking for something different to tickle your ears.

Ok, so for those of you planning on coming to our show at the district tomorrow night, you should know that it has been moved indoors (off of the patio) and will now only be one hour, instead of two.

It’s a bummer (we were looking forward to two hours of fun), but we’ll settle for one hour.

Same time (9 pm), same place (the District at 4th and Central - $5 cover). Hope to see you there!

Many thanks to everyone who came out to rock with us last night — it was a blast! We were totally suprised to have a packed house Tuesday night! Everyone was really great, and it was sweet to get to meet you guys face to face and hang out a little. And of course, the bradbury press always puts on a great show.
Aside from a bass amp dying in the middle of the show (yes, for those of you wondering, that’s what that buzzing sounds was…), everything went great.

We’re rounding up some pictures from the show, and we’ll have them up here as soon as we can. Until then, here’s a copy of Darrick’s set list, so if you didn’t make it, you can pretend:

The set included covers of Radiohead, Switchfoot, and Foo Fighters.

Foo Fighters’ “My Hero” was dedicated to our friend, Jeremy Aranda who is leaving later this month to do another tour with the Army, this time in Iraq.

Stay safe brother — it’s because of guys like you we can sleep sound at night.
