PAX! It is this very weekend. Front expects to see you at the Saturday night concert (with JoCo and Paul & Storm), at the JiNX party Friday night (for a short set w/ DJ CPU), and/or at his glorious purch-a-torium (also known as his 'bandland merch booth,' where he and Ma Front will be camped all weekend for autographs, photos, hugs, and capitalism).

Next up? Phoenix for Kingdom of Loathing Con on Sept 18th, then Austin for FantasticFest (he'll be by for a Nerdcore Rising screening on Sept 22, and a concert at the Let Me In premiere party at the Highball on the 23rd).

And then? Tour! We promise we'll have those dates posted almost immediately.

Meanwhile: Get Lamp is available at long last; MC Lars's new video is the bee's knees; YT's on a Space Mission; Slaughterhouse 90210 is Front's new favorite tumblr (sorry, UWLFY); Eazy and Cash make mash; Nedroid gets interpreted in audio; Vic-20 seeks funds for an amazing video; Molly23 has the lowdown on new facial hair nomenclature.

Oh! And Front expects to premiere the Spoiler Alert video and single somewhere this weekend. PAX, most likely. Okay, yes, let's just say: at PAX.

Brooklyn! It is hot and wonderful. MC Frontalot will hide away from the world here and work on his various debilitating personal issues.

After that is PAX.

 Front is in Berkeley, taking care of a little bit of business. Stay tuned for the October tour details!

Front's in San Diego at Comic-Con! Come meet him and buy things and have those things autographed, any time, all weekend long. The booth space is kindly provided by team Penny Arcade, and you will find Front on their outer edge, booth 1237.

The show at Casbah is tonight, with Lars, yt, Megaran, and the Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal crew. Front's on around 11:15, so can probably even catch him after w00tstock.

Tomorrow (Friday) is the hotly anticipated Zero Day Print signing with Jhonen Vasquez. Find your dear MC Frontalot and Mr. V seated together at the Topatoco booth (#1231, just around the corner) from 5:30 until 7 in the evening. Those prints will be available at Front's concession for the remainder of the weekend.

Whew. The new single is go! Grab the MP3 or AAC of First World Problem and blare it proudly from your luxury-item stereophonic audio loudspeakers. Then watch the video (YouTube or Quicktime) on your hand-held wireless computer phone or towering flatscreen monitor. Afterwards, funnel some of your disposable income toward the rapper in question by buying the album: Zero Day. These actions will not keep at bay the creeping dread of a life wasted. But they will distract you briefly (and thoroughly)! So have at.

See the previous news below for Nerdapalooza and Comic-Con shows. San Diego attendees are to stand advised: Jhonen's intensely rawsome Zero Day cover art is becoming a limited edition fancypants print, and Comic-Con's where to get it. Front and JV will sit quietly together at the Topatoco booth on Friday the 23rd to vend and sign the things. Hot damn!

Front's got a couple more shows that he ought to type into the calendar but hasn't yet: PAX Prime in Seattle, KoL Con in Phoenix, FantasticFest in Austin. Details soon.

 Happy Recreational Explosions Day to you, celebrants of yankee antiauthoritarianism! Front will be enjoying a nice grilled meat product and bubbling alcohol drink on a roof in the Mission district of San Francisco. He hopes your own plans are similarly pleasant.

Nerdapalooza fast approaches! Front and band will be there to round out the Sunday night program. Such a collection of geeked out wonderments is rarely available to you, the concertgoing public. Take advantage.

And there's a nerdcore hip-hop night ready-brewed for you at San Diego Comic-Con: MC Lars, Random, ytcracker, and your own most frontingest MC... these forces gather and explode at the Casbah on Thursday the 22nd. Get your ticket right away.

The new single is overdue! We've been hard at work trying to wrestle a viable encoding of the video from the flaming wreckage of a data catastrophe. Yes, not having a high-enough resolution version of your new rap video is kind of a first world problem; the irony is lost on nobody. That will come, along with MP3 and even a remix kit, soon. Till then, the initial version remains available at SPIN.
