Intelligence report Here's some information we've gathered about ourselves from inside sources. The Slip will be spending the summer frolicking in the wilderness, eating small doses of semi poisonous berries, watching ninja movies in air conditioned villas, touring parts of North America and laying down tracks for their new studio album. If you find yourself in need of their refreshing sounds, these are some of the best places to find them. - BAM

The Ice Cream Truck - August 7th This is the name we've given to the one day, overnight, outdoor festival we're helping to host on Saturday, August 7th. It will take place at the operative Tyrone Farm in Pomfret, CT, home of the infamous Livestock concert of yore. This land is lush with lots of room to move around, and no dust. Other artists to grace the stage will be Geoff Scott and Public House, Caveman, and others whom we have yet to name. Good food, camping, and probably ice cream. Attendees can camp out on Saturday night. Tickets are on-sale now via our ticketing site at theslip.com. The Slip @ BB King's in NYC, Get on The Bus On July 30th, The Slip will headline at BB King's Blues Club in Times Square. There will be a bus leaving from Boston and swinging through Providence to take folks to the show. Tickets are $55 and include round trip transportation, admission to the show, and a Slip NYC survival kit. Just imagine, a bus trip where you're not afraid to talk to the weird looking guy sitting next to you! Space on the bus is limited to 50 seats, and a minimum of 40 need to be sold for this to happen. So bring a friend. This is an all ages show. Go to http://www.theslip.com/evinfo.php?eventid=4903 for more info.
