Contributed by names. Posted by aubin on Wednesday, February 4, 2009 at 5:00 PM (EST)

Milwaukee's Chinese Telephones have announced their last show in light of their break up. The show is scheduled for February 26 at the Vault in Milwaukee. This will also be the record release show for Democracy, a collection of all their vinyl-only releases.

The band released Chinese Telephones in 2007, their only proper full length.

Why, WHY did I read all of that? At work no less.

If I was starting to get turned on, I remembered it was craigslist and she's probably disgusting, so I was turned back off, but kept reading and cycled right back through those emotions.

Man, I need to jot down some notes, I'm definitely in the slower, eye contact while kissing group she described here.

some fat gay guy must have been pretty bored that night.

demian (February 4, 2009)

no, it's definitely done by a chick

TheMexican (February 4, 2009)

I'm never gonna get girls.

demian (February 4, 2009)

basically this can be summed up as "every girl likes different things, so just ask her"

Stoked for the album, not for their break up.

I love their LP, but I'm upset that the only time I saw them the soundguy completely fucked up their vocals.

TheOneTrueBill (February 4, 2009)

My buddy's band is playing their last show and I've been promising a trip up to Milwaukee to see them for awhile. I should really get on it and actually go.

Does anybody know the address for the Vault? It's not on their myspace and I don't know very many basements in Milwaukee.

TheOneTrueBill (February 4, 2009)

It's on Center st but I don't know the exact address. They probably don't want the exact location out because of cops and such. Try sending either the Telephones or the Vault page a message, they'll definitely tell you.

Pop punk bands need to stop breaking up.

Well, see, they then bitch to their girlfriends about the band breaking up, then the girl breaks up with them, and they start a new pop-punk band.

I don't see why it would be so hard to find a guy in a big city to play simple drums for a pop punk band who don't work full time.

Dordon (February 4, 2009)

thT same thing happened to me!!! i submitted a review for '... And justice for all' and then like 2 weeks later a very-similar-to-my-review was published by the guy who did all the other metallica reviews. It was like the same wording and everything.

Dordon (February 4, 2009)

You'll live. Unless you plan on being outside for an extended period of time, or hiking in the woods or shit. Then bring wool socks or heavy boots.

elliot (February 4, 2009)

I find it really hard to believe that they couldn't find another drummer in Milwaukee.
