The Nicest of the Damned

About Me

For the uninitiated, Pro Audio is straight up nerdcore.
We're for girls who wear cool glasses.
We're for people who have just finished reading Harry Potter and are going through withdrawls.
We're for folks who stand near the fridge at parties.
We're for people who bought Pinkerton, sold it, and then bought it again years later.
We're for guys who have kicked around in comic book stores.
We're cat people. We're dog people. We're baby people.
We just might be for you, but you'll never know unless you listen.
Please don't put giant ads for your band in our comments. We delete friends who do stuff like that.

Review 2 plus Off the Grid

So like Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and The Pixies before us, Pro Audio is destined to become big overseas before the American press starts paying attention. Here is another rather glowing revie...

Blip

Finally, the big fat new Pro Audio album got a little bit of notice. Tim Bocquet from BMA Magazine (all the way across the pond) has some pretty overwhelmingly positive words to say about Make the Hap...

Hey everyone. Bri here. If you didn't know. Jason does most of the blogging. He doesn't actually play any instruments so we have to let him do something so he feels like a part of the band. (Um, just ...

To Catch a Pro Audio Editor

Did you know that three of the four members of Pro Audio are professional television editors?  They could be named The Editors if that name wasn't already taken.  The fourth member of the ba...

UnGoogleable

Another problem with "Pro Audio" is its innate inability to be Googled.  At one point, John suggested putting a Google Alert on our name, but I figured it would lead to getting emails every day a...
