I have no idea why we're on this list but, this is The Deli Magazine's list of the top 300 regional bands. We're number 62. On a list that includes Bruce at #6, and Radiohead at #30, I'm kinda happy in an odd way.

yeah for some reason curse words in song or band name have become acceptable and almost mainstream

I took a trip several years ago to see a band that was playing at The Knitting Factory. I wish I could go back.

If anyone is interested, go to the link, scroll to the bottom...click on upcoming shows and hit RSVP. It will remind you to watch us Sunday night. Pretty good chance it might be our last performance.

naw but, Evan seems to be developing quickly as a recording artist. By this I mean, I am more and more impressed by his demos every time I hear a new one. We've spoken about it, and to be tied down by a band name,or genre just doesn't seem like such a great idea. Evan is going to do new recordings mid-July. If things go to plan, all the tracks(guitar,bass,drums,keys etc) will be recorded by him.

The other issue is, I've been going to so many local jams and have connected with quite a few outstanding musicians. Many of them could help perform his songs on a moments notice. Again, no reason to be tied down to bandmates(even if one of them is dad )or rehearsal schedules.

We will revisit after the recording sessions
