The newest new song - Skeleton Key

Sorry for the delay, but justin.tv changed how they do things and it took forever for them to make this highlight (and I definitely tried to make it like 10 times before they all decided to show up, lol)

Wednesday, trying to work through technical difficulties, Honor Society debuted yet another new song, this one called "Skeleton Key"


Watch live video from HONOR SOCIETY on Justin.tv

Now lets just hope these October tour dates start popping up so we can hear these LIVE! Read more...

I managed to somehow get the clip to my youtube - so here it is - learn the words so you can sing along, duh! (It's called 'dont close the book')

Just Over the Bridge into Old Tappan, NJ

Because we're bored, this post comes to you as a conversation...

Lauren: It was a bright and shiny day. I was running a half hour late due to traffic so I texted Katie that I would drive. When I pulled into her driveway at 4 p.m., her mom pulled up next to me, of course, I thought that someone was following me instead! Katie and I jumped in my car (not literally) and were on our way to New Jersey!

Katie: Again! haha.

Lauren: Yes, we head to New Jersey for the second time in a month.

Katie: What should have been an hour and a half ride, ended up being more like 3 hours.

Lauren: That was a redonculus trek. Not only was there traffic, there was an fender-bender caused by the bumper-to-bumper traffic!



Katie: Anywho, despite a little confusion with our trusty TomTom, we made it to Oakes Park with time to spare.

Lauren: And at 7:38 p.m. the gentlemen introduced and walked to the front of the gazebo.



Katie: And what we thought would be a peaceful evening, sitting down and enjoying the show was ruined, when Michael told everyone to stand up, and we could no longer see!

Lauren: Thanks Mike!

Katie: Then you left me when they started to play. :(

Lauren: I didn't leave for long!

Katie: Okay, you're right...Lauren went to scope out a decent spot for us to move to. We ended up standing on the side of the "stage" for several songs.

Lauren: We were there for pretty much the entire show.

Katie: Oh.. maybe i was distracted.

Lauren: What else is new - anyways, below is the set list:

This Bed is An Ocean
Kiss me Like You Mean It
Why Didn't I?
No Win Situation
Two Rebels
Unpredictable
Goodnight my Love
Nobody Has To Know
The Takeover
See u In The Dark

And the program for the evening is under the cut!

We also got to meet the guys after the show. Our picture with them (taken by Rebecca, the awesome co-street team leader) can be found in the Welcome post.

Islip, YouSlip, We all Slip... for Honor Society - August 23,2008


August 23 Lauren and I had tickets to see John Mayer in Hartford. But one day I was looking at HS's myspace and was like "They added a date..." So we decided to try and sell the Mayer tickets (which we were successful at the last minute in doing) and head to Long Island (Islip, NY) to see the gentlemen.

Connecticut and Long Island are kind of parallel to each other. But there is no bridge connecting them. There is a ferry but we would have had to take the car with us and it would have gotten pretty expensive. So basically we drove down the coast of Connecticut, into New York and then up parallel through Long Island, kind of sort of back tracking. I kind of wanted to build a bridge. Or invent a flying car. You know, whatever could get us there fastest.

We got there early and decided to try and see the beach. Except, this is Long Island, everything was private. So we didn't find much of anything... saw some boats though.

Once we parked, we spotted all the guys on their cell phones. It almost looked like they were all talking to each other. Pretty funny. We paid our $10 donation/admission (It was a benefit for Lupus) and found out that Honor Society wouldn't be going on until 10 pm. As we listened to the other bands and they said their names, we could tell that this concert was running WAY behind schedule.

The guys took the stage about 10:30 and ended their set around 11:30. We thought they might get shut down because of noise ordinances or whatever it is. Here in CT, I think you can't play past 11. But despite the wait, a great show was performed, as always.

We quickly said goodbye to Andrew and made our parallel backtracking trek home.

The setlist for the evening was:
This Bed Is An Ocean
Kiss Me Like You Mean It
Why Didnt I
No Win Situation
Two Rebels
Nobody Has To Know
See U In The Dark

Check out some video and pictures under the cut!

Back to School...of Rock!


Although Katie graduated from college in 2006 and I graduated from college in 2007, we both decided to go back to school one more time on August 15th. Our teachers were none other than Honor Society. They performed in front of an all ages audience at the School of Rock East in South Hackensack, New Jersey.

The bus -- er -- car ride to New Jersey was no ordinary car ride. As we were driving into the city, I noticed that the sun was leaving us and we were heading into a storm. I got a little excited while we were driving over the George Washington Bridge because the sky was dark and greenish and there were bolts of lightning. In my eyes, it was gorgeous, so I had to take pictures:




Of course, the entire time we were driving over the bridge I was yelling to Katie "Look at that!," "Do you see the color in the sky?!," "It's not even dark over Manhattan!" Did I mention that Katie was driving?

As soon as we passed over the bridge, the sky opened up. It was raining so hard that everyone reduced their speed by 20 mph. It was insane. We couldn't even pull over because there wasn't a shoulder.


When we hit South Hackensack, the rain had let up, but the sky was still dark and dreary-looking. We drove to McDonald's to make a pit stop and to eat (well, I ate because I was starving). Then we headed to the School of Rock. We sat in the parking lot for awhile and watched as girls began to form a line. It began to rain again and a guy walked out (everyone was actually standing at a secondary door), looked at everyone and asked why they weren't home, since there was a...... tornado warning!!!!!
That explains why the sky was so green. Anyway, after this guy told the girls that there was a tornado warning, the girls were allowed to go inside through the other door (the real entrance) in School of Rock.
Honor Society was the first band to perform. We got to see the guys set up, do a soundcheck and of course rock out!

The set list for the show was as follows:
This Bed Is An Ocean
Kiss Me Like You Mean It
Why Didn't I?
No Win Situation
Two Rebels
Nobody Has To Know
The Takeover
See U In The Dark

Toquet Hall - Wesport, CT - 7/10/2008

Lauren and I went down to Westport to a teen center to see Honor Society! While the show was in CT we did still have to travel about a half an hour from my house.

We paid our lovely $6 admission (over the weekend it was $12 to see them. love it.) and went in and grabbed a seat.

After the first bands set Micheal came over to us to say hi and that we could go shopping and then come back to see them because they were supposed to be on at 9:30, but it might have been sooner. But we hung around to check out the other bands.

A couple of other bands played (The Suns, Fourth World Nation, The Blue Pages) and then it was time for Honor Society!

For their set, we moved to a table because all the girls went up close so we were taller than them on the stools. They had a ton of technical issues so the guy from Blue Pages was getting everyone to sign up for the Blue Pages email list. He asked if we were from CT and he didn't believe us when we said yes! I asked if he wanted to check our IDs, and he said "I might!" haha but all the other girls were from NY/NJ and follow the band, he told us. (Little did he know, we do too! It just happened to be that the show was in Connecticut!)

The guys played a short set of:
In This Club (Intro)
This Bed Is An Ocean
Kiss Me Like You Mean It
Why Didn't I?
No Win Situation
Nobody Has To Know
The Takeover
See U In The Dark

After the show we talked with Jason, Andrew and Alex and got pictures! (We had already gotten pics with Michael earlier) We didn't know when we'd be seeing them again, but hoped it would be soon!
