Check out the "new" tour dates more are being added all the time. Sorry, were not up to date on the tour diary but getting access to a pc when your on the road all day proves very tough. But, hell it will be good bedtime reading when we get it all up on the site in the next few days...Keep an eye out for it.
Hey if your in Edmonton, and some guy tries selling you our CD the chances are it's stolen,(We hope they find good homes) we had our van broken into...and hey the rest is history. ***Note to robber, next time try the door (we will leave it open) instead of breaking a window that cost more than $1000 bucks to fix. Thanks a**hole!

Marble Index Contest #1
Not So Bright Contest
Thanks to everyone that entered. Unfortunately, there is only room for one winner, and two semi-winners. Here they are:
Winner!
On November 19th, me and 3 of my friends took a bus from Brantford, Ontario to Hamilton to check out The Marble Index who were playing at The Underground that night. We had bus fare for a way home but we ended up spending it on beer, vodka, and such other things before my other friend in Hamilton, who was giving us a place to crash that night, decided to go back to Brantford with his girlfriend. Already being extremely drunk, we decided to stay for the show anyways instead of catching a ride home. So it looked like we were going to sleep in the cold, dark, mean streets of Hamilton. Later that night, however, we ended up meeting Brad of The Marble Index and to our relief he told us that we could stay at his house for the night. So we stayed and watched the spectacular lineup of bands that were playing (Honeymoon Machine, The Miniatures, and of course The Marble Index.) Before going back to
His place, my friend Ryan was harassing Brad during the entire set to play 'I Believe' even after he played it. In the end, even though my recollection of the night was a bit blurry, we had an awesome night drinking beers and being idiot teenagers at the show and after party at Brad's house.

Runner-up!
My story didn’t happen in the past year, but here it is anyway...in your home town of Hamilton no less. Awhile back I joined a band; I financed alotta gear, only to have it ripped off at a gig. Suddenly the band broke up. It may have been an inside job, I don't know. The singer didn’t know what he wanted to do in my opinion. I spent about 4k!! That's a used car. Now I have no band, no car, and I am stuck in a shitty ass job that I hate with a passion. How's that for "Not So Bright"? I should've gone for the car! Well anyway that's my story. Keep the good music coming.
-Oscar Gear.
2nd Runner-up!
Knowing that this girl is a spastic drunk, I let her sleep in my
bed only to have her pee in it....Nice.
