Hello there Joel, What's up ? It's Mike & Seb from Hardship. Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy the show last night, but let's get a couple of things straight. We were NOT actually drunk or stoned. What happened was, we had this souvlaki platter across the street, and it left everybody feeling kind of woozy. Personally, I thought it was a good show. See, the thing is, we have all this material from our new record that we really like, and that's what we want to play these days. The Hack ep is not indicative of the kind of band we are anymore. I know that it makes it hard for people who like our old material to enjoy the show, but we are heading off in a new direction with the music and we're hoping that everyone who enjoyed our older recordings will be able to evolve and grow along with us. 'Somebody Spoke' is definately NOT the Hack ep, and our next record will not be 'Somebody Spoke'. We want to keep moving and changing all the time, and keep the music fresh and new. Anyway, that's the score, and I hope you'll come out again and give us another chance. I promise to practice my guitar playing a lot in the meantime. Love, Hardship Post.
