July 1, 2009 – A Bright Future for Meg & Rob
It's the end of the fiscal year at Meg & Rob industries. Since you, the nameless and faceless readers of the internet, are our primary shareholders, we thought you deserved a report on the future of the organization. Here it is: on July 24, we'll be doing a show at the PIT in New York City (tickets here) with our dear friends Gentleman Caller and Kent Haines, and in September we're going to rip the face off of the Philly Fringe Festival performing with BWP. Any other inquiries about Meg & Rob (Bookings? Friendship pacts?) can be directed to megandrob@gmail.com.

January 27, 2008 – Photos and Shows
Too often I (Meg) go on the internet with the best intentions, perhaps to send an email or look up a recipe, and instead of being productive I'll wake up an hour later, realizing with horror that I was trapped in some strange vortex where all I did was look at photos of people I barely know. If you're interested in doing the same, we now have a photos page.
If you'd prefer to see us in person, we also have more shows.
