This Week's News Bulletin
Tue., Apr. 4. 2023 11:19am EDT
1. NEW SINGLE: '86 & '92
We just released our seventh single of 2023. It features parodies of a pair of rock bands who had two Top 10 hits apiece. One group was from England and had their hits in the '80s. The other is from the United States and had theirs in the '90s. We've spoofed each act's first Top 10.

Here's what's on it:
1. Everybody Can Come to Christ - Everybody Have Fun Tonight - Wang Chung
2. Every Day About You - Everything About You - Ugly Kid Joe
There are now 212 singles/EPs (430 songs) in our "downloads for a donation" series, including our previous single, "Evidence" and "I Rewrite the Songs," featuring parodies of The Hooters and Barry Manilow.

ApologetiX lead singer and lyricist J. Jackson gave the sermon at Ellport Community Church in Ellwood City PA on Sunday, March 26. If you'd like to see and hear it, go to:

ApX friend David Michael has unearthed another gem on YouTube. It's a full-length video of a concert we played in Moravia NY on November 5, 2005, posted by fellow ApX fan Charlie DeLong. It was originally filmed by ApX fan Mike Froio. If you'd like to see it for yourself, go to: https://youtu.be/fGtS6biK15k
But that's not all. David recently scoured YouTube and made a playlist of every video he could find of ApX playing live. There are over 400 entries on the list! Some of the newest (and best) ones are at the top, but they go back almost 20 years:

3. NEW USBs in STOCK
We recently got a new batch of ApX USB thumb drives. Emblazoned with the band's logo, they contain the digital versions of all 68 of our CDs, plus any singles, EPs, or rarities that aren't on CD, up to and including our latest single.
We recently upgraded the storage capacity from 8 GB to 16 GB to accommodate our ever-expanding library of music.
They still look exactly the same, and they're not any bigger on the outside; it's what's inside that counts. Like our previous USBs, they're write-enabled, so you can add more music to them if and when you get future ApX downloads.
Although we've doubled the capacity, the deal is the same; they're still available for a donation of $150 or more. If you've donated for our complete library before, they're still available for a donation of $50 or more.
