Unicorn Basement CD Release!! @ Triple Rock Social Club Minneapolis, Minne

You may have noticed a few instances in those dates of where the band is having a hard time getting a gig. The Kats explain it all in a MySpace Bulletin:

The dates are now official and posted. though many of them say "HELP?" we have some kind of lead in each city. BUT! maybe you know some really great place and would totally love for us to play it!

So will someone help a sista out? It's not Kitten Sometimes, it's Kitten Forever! With regard to Chicago, I have two words: Empty Bottle. It must happen. Oh yes, it must.

No word about when the band will be released recorded output, but we'll let you know as soon as they do.
