History
The first song we ever wrote as a group was over the phone "Teacher in Space." Played our first show without a drummer. Recorded four full lengths, one Xmas album and a ton of other irrelevant stuff that we hope noone can find. Won Ticketmaster band battle, Kool Cigarettes band battle to play Horde Fest with Blues Traveler and Smashing Pumpkins. Wrote tons of songs about ex-girlfriends. Ended in 1999 without owing anybody any money. No band member ever got hit for something they said onstage. Have written -- at last count -- more than 120 songs over the course of seven years. Nobody ever went to jail -- on band time.
