The wormhole has closed...RIP U.S. Pipe

Dear friends,

There is no easy or right way to say it, but the wormhole of the United Sound Pipe has closed. RIP U.S. Pipe: June 2005 - April 2009!

It was a good ride and we had a lot of great things happen, touring throughout the region everywhere from Idaho to New Mexico, from Oklahoma to the mountains of the Western slope of our beautiful home state of Colorado. We got to play almost every esteemed venue and theater in Colorado: the Fox Theatre, the Fillmore, the Ogden, the Bluebird, the Belly Up and who could forget RED ROCKS!

We opened for P-Funk, Fishbone, Bonerama, Breakestra and played awesome events like Tulsa's Diversafest, Denver's Film on the Rocks and Loveland's SummerFest in the Rockies. We got a lot of love from the press and critics and released our album, United Sound Pipe, to great acclaim and fanfare. Flying Dog Brewery did a great job supporting us and helping us give back to the community, and we're so grateful for their help AND yours in giving back to those who need it most in these hard times. We're all very proud that we were able to accomplish these things and much more.

All of this would never have happened if it weren't for the fans like YOU. While this wormhole is closed right now the universe has a way of opening other tunnels and creating new space bodies with the destruction and closing of others. The universe is STILL expanding. No doubt great things will come of it.

We still have copies of the CD available and will still be selling them, as other Pipe merch we have, at us-pipe.com and will be revamping all our sites in the coming weeks. They won't go away but they will be changing so feel free to visit and still communicate through them with Citrus.

Thank you, dear friends, for all you are and have been to us!

-U.S. Pipe
