I know! Let’s play a song about Love Gone Awry! We’ll be famous!

Written by Neizy on May 3rd, 2010

Here it is.  It’s pretty much about every date LP has been on pre 2008.

 

We’re in the movies (in space)

Written by Leighton on March 23rd, 2010

Hey so Neil was in Austin with another (awesome) band (we’re musically polyamourous) which was/is great but I got bored and made this video at my workplace. Our friend Ryan King operated camera and I mashed together a bunch of old stock video clips.

The result is a video for what is basically a hidden track on our new e.p. (Coming reallyreally soon!)

“Something Wicked” by Safe Boating is No Accident from Leighton Peterson on Vimeo.

Please stay tuned(?) for announcements RE: new e.p. and listening party for said e.p.

love you!

Leighton

 

what just happened?

Written by Neizy on February 24th, 2010

whoa!  that was a long winter’s nap.  We’re still a little groggy, but here’s something to wake everyone up.

 

We (definitely) still exist.

Written by Leighton on November 12th, 2009

So we’re playing a show at our favorite DIY venue and we are stoked about it.

duuuuuuuuude.... youshouldgo

duuuuuuuuude.... youshouldgo

We hope you can make it. This is a new era in SBINA history. It’s electrifying.

I’m sorry it’s taken us so long to write. It’s just.. well… things happen, life happens and all the sudden you  have to seize the day and as a  result you haven’t blogged in three months. It doesn’t mean we don’t still love you.

Abi and SBINA inc have parted ways. We are currently re-tooling our corporate infrastructure to compensate for her absence. We’re pleased to announce that we’re making headway. Our shareholders will be pleased.

Love you,

This is a song we like to play.

Written by Neizy on September 14th, 2009

Leadbelly popularized it.  Nirvana re-popularized it.  Great song.  Check out our youtube channel, SafeBoatingify.  We are desperately in need of your validation.  More on our healthy admiration for  Leadbelly after the jump.

Not sure how to feel about other cultures sometimes.

Written by Leighton on August 31st, 2009

Feeling kind of conflicted about my opinions on other cultures lately. Can you help? Group discussion questions are highlighted in bold.

This is a short documentary about Juggalos. It’s pretty fascinating.

This is like Woodstock for dudes who just want to get “really fucked up” and spit really trite rhymes about violence and wear tank tops in public. I can’t help but feel kind of jealous that I don’t belong to a real “community.” I’m a member of a scene. I think. Am I? I should have received my card by now.

Do you think Juggalos should be immune from prosecution for “honor killings?” Liking a Daft Punk song is an offense punishable by death in some conservative Juggalo households. Should cultures be able to police themselves?

More subcultures after the jump.

We are so Phucking Phamous right (Ph)Now

Written by Neizy on August 10th, 2009

We’ve always shared a friendly link with our pal Lance over at theflatresponse.com , but we’re going to link him again for general and specific reasons.

Generally- Lance is a fucking cool guy.  Buy him a beer.

Specifically- Lance recorded an event called Denver Does Denver that Safe Boating Is No Accident performed at in May, and he has recently put enough editing time in to get our set posted among the other bands’ sets.  Follow this link to here us covering our favorite electronica act, Picture Plane.  As usual, we kick a substantial amount of ass.

love,

PS- the video up top is us performing at Denver Does Denver; please don’t hate me for wearing a Members Only jacket.

 

OK, Guys, listen: We’re in the movies.

Abi, Neil.  Doooin' stuff

Abi, Neil. Doooin' stuff

This weekend Safe Boating Is No Accident Industries, Inc. allocated the labor of their REALLY FAST MUSIC department to the 48 hour film project.  The score was written and recorded quick and from the hip, as was the drinking of mimosas.

Luckily, our team’s assigned genre was “sci-fi”, which is of course the natural habitat of folk music.  We’ve seen the final product, but you can’t until the screening on Sunday, August 9th at the Gothic Theatre.  We assure you that it is of the utmost 48-hour quality.  I’m sure the boys in the back room will get the video up on this website sooner or later as well.  Until then, boat safely.

 

What is hotter than Buffy Sainte-Marie and a mouth bow?

Written by Neizy on July 23rd, 2009

1. This is Buffy Sainte-Marie.  She’s playing the mouth bow.  There isn’t much else to say about it, except that rest of this list.

2. The mouth bow is longer than it is wide, but we’re all going to avoid discussion of the phallus here, thankyouverymuch.

3. Pete Seeger is in top form in this video. Look how happy he is when he makes up a verse about the mouth bow towards the end.  You can’t fake that kind of folksy enthusiasm for your own jokes.

4. Buffy is pretty hott, with or without the mouth bow.

5. Buffy is really hot, even when she kisses a horse puppet thusly:

6. I wish I had a mouth bow, mouth harp, singing saw, etc. and then I would go see Buffy and say “Look at me play my mouth bow, mouth harp, singing saw, etc.” or something like that and she would be impressed by a member of my generation’s interest in mouth bows, mouth harps, singing saws etc and she would shake my hand in a kind of masculine but still really hott feminine way like a mature woman who knows what’s up and she’d invite me in for herbal tea and I’d tell her about my trip to the east coast or wherever she lives and I’d ask her about her First Nation outreach and education projects and be really interesting when I talk about Native issues and maybe she’d let me lay my head in her lap and she’ll stroke my hair and tell me she likes my long beard.

7. I wonder why Pete Seeger’s banjo looks so long.  It is a really long banjo.  His right hand technique is also really interesting to me.  It looks like a kind of  cross between scruggs and frailin’ styles of playing.

8. Sometimes I wish it were forty years ago.
