Thanks to all our new friends who keep adding us on MySpace. We love you all very much, and we are so very happy to have met you guys!

Huge shout out to Jerolyn and her sis in Atlanta, GA! You guys really truly helped out with the Chicken Fillet sandwiches on the road! You KICK ASS!!!

Remember, without all of you, there is no DIG JELLY! We LOVE YOU!!!

Chicago, here we come!!!

We are hollerin' at y'allz from Ft Lauderdale Florida! Yeah baby, no Wilma can stop us now lol. We had another packed, kick-ass, show last night at this club called Culture Room opening for Veruca salt! The crowd went nuts and we sold tons of CDs!

But it hasn't been like that all the time. This is our first national tour since we got signed. We had a couple of shows where we played in front of 30 people in a 700 capacity room and shit, but it's all good!! I made sure that all 'em 30 people bought our CD. :D

Also, I, Rayko had a temperature of 102 last night, and the night before when we played at Fuel in Jacksonville, FL. I was hella sick, but dude, once I got up on stage, I forgot about it all and rawked out harder than eva!!! I f'in sweated out all ma sickness away!!

Of course, we had to deal with the hurricane weather after the show!! Joey (da drummer) and Brian (our artwork/merch guy) got soaking wet while we were trying to drive our huge RV outta a narrow-ass alleyway that looked like something out of Jurassic Park! They had to lift and throw all the debris away that was blocking our way.

Our driver did an awesome job, and all we lost throughout the 20 min drama was the step of our RV, which got caught on some wooden post we couldn't see. lolol

We started the tour on 10/10, and 10 shows later, we are eva stronger, tougher, and man, it's been a blast! It is truly an honor to be able to share stages with such an awesome band like Veruca Salt! I mean, they are hard, tight, sexy, and the singer Louise wails!! She's so hot, talented, and a very sweet and humble....! I love her!!

We got 20 plus more shows with them. Please check out our tour dates with Veruca Salt at www.digjelly.com. Atlanta, GA here we come!!

We'll be back at our hood, playing The Key Club on Friday, 11/18!! Come party!!

Thanks so much for your support ma friends!! I love you all!!

We met some kool ass guys from Tinker AFB. Andrew Markey and da gang! They were rocking out and showing their mad support the whole time we were playing, and were the first people to be at our merch table buying our CDs! I had so much fun talking to them. They are not only fun loving guys, but hella smart! They control all the planes that are coming and going, ya know? Shit!!

There's more to the story!! They bought us PIZZAS!! YES! Do you know how the PIZZAS taste after a gig? YUMMY YUMMY!!! Shrek rules!!! He ordered like 4 large pizzas, had them delivered to the club, and fed us all!! I'll never forget the taste!! WE LOVE PEOPLE IN OKLAHOMA CITY!!! We'll be back there fo sho just for them awesome people!!

Another kool ass guy we met was Thomas in Houston TX! He was a fill-in guitar player of the local band that opened up for us. He's the most radical guitar player I've seen. He had gorgeous, long, straight hair, and he looked like someone that was REAL HARD to please. I WAS RIGHT! He later told me that he was ready to pack up and leave when we hit the stage hard with "SLAM". He paused, listened, and went berserk!!!

He NEVER left the front of the stage after that! He was banging his head, screaming the whole time, giving us the YOU RAWK sign...He was giving us da LOVE the whole time y'all!

He also was one of the first at our merch table after we were done. By the time I got there, he had our baseball jersey, beanie cap, and of course the CD!! He even tipped us $10, AND THEN took us to the bar and bought us drinks all fuckin' night long!!! WHAT A GUY!!

He said he might fly out to see us in Vegas! It would be awesome to see our new friend Thomas there!!!

Yo Jelly people everywhere! Sup!?

I said "Wha..???????"

Herez some updates on what's really going on with us lately! As some of you know, on March 1, we got an awesome record deal offer from an indie label called Centerline Entertainment, featuring major worldwide distribution through IDN/D1 Music!

After a little over three months of negotiation, we finally signed it on June 29th!!! I (Rayko) also got a separate deal with them as an in-house songwriter/producer to write and produce for some of their Hip Hop and Rock Artists! The deal is better than anything we could have asked for!

Our label is in full force to get Dig Jelly to become the next big thang (how cheezie am I lolol)!! YAY!!

Our newly edited "For Your Inner Angry Child" is totally repackaged with a killer Anime style art work (check out the shit created by Brian Bowland at our home page) and ready to hit the racks at stores near you on November 8th!

We are very grateful for this and all of you for supporting us...it's what got us here today, and IF you know anything about me, I cannot just sit here and relax now that we got a deal! I can't let the label take over all the work! I wanna become one of the team leaders with the big machine and work HARDER THAN EVA! lolol

So, please feel free to holla at me with any upcoming events you might want to have us perform at! We got awesome tour support as well, so we are there!!! If you are in a band and playing shows, I'm there to support as alwayz!

Oh, and you might wanna get a copy of "For Your Inner Angry Child" here FAST if you haven't gotten it yet! The price will go up once the label repackages the CD :) You can also buy Rayko's solo project CD "Crave" here, too!!

Anywayz, e-mail me any time! I love networking and chatting with y'allz! Nothing has changed, I'm the same old Rayko, yo friend! PEACE!!!

DIG JELLY IS GETTING A HUGE BUZZ IN NAGOYA, JAPAN!
