Saw the foo fighters last night, wow - March 7, 2008
Yes, I'm a fan, what can I say,
Dave Grohl and Crew are amazing.
One of the Best voices in rock, he totally pulls it off live. In the pit the whole time, not as crazy as Metallica or Korn, but still energetic.
Lots of fun, YYYYYeeeeeeaaahhhhhhh!

Happy New Beer! Here's what we're up to lately. Jeff's arm is feeling better after his weight lifting mishap and will be back up next week to jam.
We've contacted our studio engineer finally and should have the recording studio completeed Jan. 13th.
The "Gorillamobile" has been worked on for 25 plus days by my good friend Vince Rodriguez , for painting.
Pretty soon, we'll be displaying a video and shots of the truck.
We look forward to a great 2008, talk to you soon!

We got to hang out with some cool people before and after the LAMA's.
A couple of artists we hung out with we're Kenny Woods-best Christian and up for some Children's awards and Thaddeus Rex, also up for some Children's music awards. (you can google them on the web ) Our co-mixer Paul Pavao, from the Mix room was there with his girlfriend
Tiffany, and a couple friends from our myspace page were there too.
We'll keep you informed of our next gig!
what we're up to - September 10, 2007
Good day mates and matettes,
I'm sure that's not a word.
Here's the scoop on our latest adven tures. Besides all the stuff on the homepage, what we've basically been doing is practicint! Our studio is one trip from our wiring and overall cool engineer away from being finished .
In the meantime , we've been working on the second album songs and trying to get tight so we can either record the basics live, or have most of it "live". Jeff's been working/living closer to us now, so thing have been easier. Talk to you soon!

cool quote - March 23, 2007
Just found this line from a book by Daniel Wood, here goes:
The 900-pound gorilla is the thing you can’t see. It’s usually just out of sight, an intimidating presence, like the propriety of a dead grandmother, or the pious dicta of a longer-dead Christian saint.

Just found out that Billy Vera and the beaters are playing the show at Rusty's Surf Ranch, he's got a lot of cool tunes, looking forward to it.

our troubled myspace site - September 20, 2006
Allright, I've sent myspace about 10 emails, and as you all probably know, you don't actually get to reach someone there, it's just computer generated hoo-hah, yes, I said hoo-hah.
So, we can't currently change any of the settings in there, hopefully you all just reach us here at our home website.
P.s. we'll keep trying to make it happen!
