Thanks!


Just a big thank you to our readers. We can't believe that in such a short time we've made some new friends through this blog. Thanks to everyone who's posted comments and written us with gossip and tips about good bands to check out.

Some of the feedback we've been getting has been pretty interesting, overall it seems like everyone thinks we need to be meaner, really go for the jugular when critiquing bands. We hear you and we'd like to say that we possess the ability to be really mean but we can't do it just for the sake of being mean, we really have to hate the band in question and believe you me we'll let it fly.

Yes, it's true. This blog was started out of spite. We were sick of sitting through the horribly long and boring Society of Rockets shows while either waiting to play or waiting for our friends to play, but hey, they are nice people, their studio recordings are pretty good, so we do not HATE them, we just really felt the need to tell them their set is too long and they need to tune so we started this blog.

Why do people do this? Why would anyone in their right mind start a band? It leads to this: paying for a practice space, gas $$$$ on the road, bad food on the road, hemorrhoids, std's, bitchy practices, crazy bandmates (i mean really crazy, need counseling now or rehab! ), crticism from guys like me, hauling heavy equipment around, dealing with sketchy promoters, small crowds, myspace spam, skipping dinner for practice, band drama, drug abuse, and worse the crazies on the SF Indie list. I really question why we do it.

It's because of the good times, the friends we make and the music we genuinely love. So again thanks to our readers. We love you,

A big thanks to Donna Lethal for adding us as a link on her awesome site.
