Free Track!
In celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing of the Eagle module, and in hopes for future and further manned exploration of the cosmos, we are happy to bring you our instrumental Time Stopped for free download. Written during the Machines Should Think People Should Work sessions, this song has been tossed around for awhile, looking for a good home. Well, I think I’ve found one.
Forty years is a very long time since man first stepped on a surface he wasn’t born on. Too long. Sadly, when Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon, he also unintentionally signaled the death knell of further exploration. The Space Race was won, why bother? Congress had better things to do with that money.
Unfortunately, human space exploration has reigned itself in, and we now hide in low Earth orbit. It’s time to let someone once again leave the cradle of this island Earth and step foot once again on foreign soil. Man must explore, whether it be by government funding or through private means. Let us not forget those dreams that we promised ourselves, and not let those bold Apollo explorers’ adventures to the Moon become an anachronism of what could have been.
We hope you enjoy the song.

THE SHOW IS ON!!!
As you may have heard, the show on Friday is on! Missile Command, Ludwyg, The Bridge Party, and Fluxion will be playing at The Phantasy! All proceeds will be going to help the Phantasy rebuild. We’re hoping to have a great show up there, so come on out and support one of the last places that lets small bands get a start.
See you Friday!
Help Missile Command Find A New Venue!
Hi everyone,
Just heard down the pipe that the Phantasy will be closed until further notice. We here at Missile Command a happy to know that all the employees of the Phantasy Complex are safe, and we’re hoping for a quick turnaround and recovery. We’ve played there many times, and we’re looking forward to many more shows there!
That being said, we’re currently without a venue on Friday night. What are we to do? As of right now, the show is cancelled. However, if anyone has a place, knows of a place, and wants to book the bands on Friday night, let us know! All of the bands are ready to play, and we do have a small PA we can bring along, if need be. That’s Missile Command, LUDWYG, The Bridge Party (Friday was supposed to be their debut concert), and Fluxion (of Detroit).
If we can’t find a place, we’ll still be playing in August. News to follow on that.

Fire at The Phantasy!

The fire at the Phantasy Complex.
Driving back from dinner, Lori and I noticed our name on the marquee at the Phantasy. Then, we noticed that the Attic, which is a little consignment shop next door, was on fire.
Everyone there is okay, but we’re not sure as to the state of the show on Friday. Stay tuned for details…if not, um, anyone got a place for us to show? Also not sure of the state of Jim’s DJ appearance at the Chamber on Saturday.

Welcome to the Missile Command Blog!
We’re trying something new here at Missile Command, something that will hopefully allow for a bit more interaction between us and all of our friends. We’re setting up a blog that all the members can contribute to, and, once I get the laziness out of my system, you’ll be able to join and comment to. This is going to serve as a deeper news page then the front page news page. More news, exclusive content, contests, polls, advance sales, and giveaways will be posted here first, so keep checking back!
We’ll also be alerting our fans to new blog items posted here via Twitter, so, if you’ve not joined yet, do so! Our Twitter name is @mchq. I’ll be tweaking the overall look of this page in the coming weeks and making sure it’s working correctly.
Thanks for supporting Missile Command!

And this will be the last show for the summer. September is a very busy month outside of Missile Command for all of us, and we’ll be taking a little break then. However, we’ll be back in October…so get ready for a Halloween party that will blow you away!!
