Well the ball drops in about a hour and I haven't got anything planned tonight. I've been so busy lately and too broke to make plans. If you live in our area there is only so much going on, plus I've been trying to put a handle on drinking; it gets the best of me sometimes.

The band is doing amazing. I love this feeling of actually going somewhere. When you put so much into something, watching it pay of makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

We are now a six piece and we've got a lot of new things coming. We've added a keyboardist and effects guy and we will be adding a light show. I figured we'll take a short break in February to get everything ready, perfect our show and then hit hard in March. Every show we've had so far has been trial and error, working out kinks, seeing what works and what doesn't. I just can't wait to reach stability and just let go and let the music do the rest because I can't stand this feeling of not being all we could be. I am a perfectionist.

We're also taking new pics next week to update you guys on the new members. They're all HOT. I promise ;). I've also been thinking about getting our myspace done professionally. I don't know yet.

We also placed 355 on the Reverbnation rock charts, thanks to you guys. It's really exciting. 256 is our all time high, but I think you can take us to top 100 and that will be very soon, I know it. I love you guys.

DBV NOW HAS TWO NEW MEMBERS! Brian Lytle and Zach Whitaker of "Old Business" will now be permanent members of Deep Black Void. They are both amazing musicians and they add so much to the band. We'll have new pics up in early January to show them off.

DEEP BLACK VOID ONLINE STORE!! Our online merch store is now up and running. We're still waiting on tee's to come in but you can pre-order the shirts there. We are now sponsored by 208 INDUSTRIES clothing and we're pretty excited about working with them. So head over to our store by clicking the merch link on our page!

Hey guys. I can't sleep and everyone's been yelling at me for not updating this thing(and correcting my spelling ;), so here I am. The bands doing well and we're looking forward to touring this summer! These weekend shows are like teases. We're ready to get out on the road.

New version of "The Dying Dead" is up. The song was in desperate need of something. We actually getting bored on stage with the old way we we're playing it. Take a listen to it. It's also available for free download on Reverbnation. So run over there and grab. FREE PEOPLE!

But I'm off to bed. Can't wait to see you this summer!

GOOD NEWS!

Eric Lovell of WAITING TO BREAK will be stepping in on drums for us until we can fing a permanent member. We've practiced together already and he is doing amazing! I can't wait to play for you guys this weekend at the Foggy Hollow Music Co. in Jonesville, VA! Finally, Deep Black Void the way I intended it.

We are still booking other shows and it looks like we'll be doing a lot traveling next month. It's going to awesome!

Hey everyone, we just played Cupid's and was great. We had a fun time and the owners we're amazing. If you're in the area, you should definitely check it out, and if you're a local band, you should play there and give our growing music scene some support.

But we're looking to hit full time in January and we need a full-time drummer. I am currently working on a studio quality demo to have done by then and we're working on merchandise right now, as well. We're going to start by booking up winter break right after Christmas and head south and back.

So if you're interested, and you live close, please message us.

Well...our first show blew. First, we lost of our cords and had to steal the cords from the monitors. So, then we couldn't hear the drums and it threw us off greatly. The speakers ended up having to be pushed back so we could hear them and that took forever and really frustrated us and threw us off for the whole night. I really appreciate everyone though for sticking around and cheering us on. That felt really good. We promise to make it up to you.

Next stop: Cupid's in Norton with Old Business (and those guys rocked last night) I look forward to seeing you all there.

Well, we're finally out and about now. Sorry it took so long. Right now, we're going to stay local to get everything in order and work the kinks out. Plus, Shane is in school. We hope to be heading south and straight up north in January and keep our summer booked solid. We'll keep you updated and keep an eye out for if we come your way.

Also, we are working on a 5 track demo. Same songs with a couple new ones in studio quality. The tracks up right now were made on my cheap set-up, but now I've got some new toys :) We will be selling them for a buck or 2 at shows and we'll also have the new tracks up in a couple of weeks.

...MERCH! And we won't have merch on our first show, but we will at Cupids! So be there if you want the first tee designs!
