Happy Holidays-in-Cambodia from your pals Office of Future Plans.
Original AV Club posting (worth reading for background on their “Undercover” series)
Breakfast of Champions. On the road home in a bit! It’s been an amazing little tour. Photos and videos coming soon!!
We just did a taping for The Onion’s AV Club holiday series. Honored to have played in the same small, cylindrical room as some of the giants of our genre.
Also, can’t wait to see what people think of our “holiday” song: Holiday In Cambodia, with Damon Locks of The Eternals singing. Thanks to Damon and everyone at The AV Club for making this happen!!
Car is packed and we are on the road to Columbus! Acoustic J Robbins/Gordon Withers show tonight at Kobo Live. Doors at 6pm - early show!

Saturday, the full band plays CHICAGO! At the Beat Kitchen, with The Life and Times and All Eyes West. This is going to be an incredible show. Note to midwesterners: we have no idea when we’ll have the chance to play in your area again, so catch us while you can.

On Sunday, J and Gordon will do another acoustic set, this time at Million Yen Studios in Chicago. This event is sold out, so we hope you already bought tickets.
We’ll attempt to do a tour-o-blog on this Tumblr, so be prepared for lots of photos of scenic rest stops and diatribes about attempting to eat vegan while on the road. See you at a show!

Also, HUGE thanks to Stephen Withers for redesigning our site! We love our spiffy new Tumblr theme. Be sure to hire him for all your web design needs.
