Happy May Day!

I tell you, there is nothing like true small-town Southern Hospitality. We took 23 M4 freaks, delivered them (in four separate
batches) by plane to Lafayette, LA and set them loose in an international music festival with French Cajun roots, and no one came home hungry. Not only was the food free and rich and plentiful at all hours at the hotel filled entirely with Festival Internationale de Louisiane performers, the community of Lafayette seems to be among the most dedicated of new M4 fans. Thank you, Lafayette, and we hope to visit you again soon.

For our Portland area fans, don't miss this month's first Friday Spring Fling at Bossanova (our only local show this month). Later in May MarchFourth will be heading to California for our "Three Saints" tour. Check out the details below (and tell your friends!)
