The artists formerly known as Southbound, 5 Day Cure is a multi-dimensional rock band that pays homage to the many kings of classic rock, southern rock, and blues, while also staying in touch with the best music today. 5 Day Cure was formed in early 2004.
This monumental effort requires the cooperation of a thunderous bass player with the mind and skills to keep this beast of a freight train on its tracks while a talented drummer will unleash an unrelenting hailstorm of destruction down upon his kingdom of percussion. Our guitarists wield axes forged by Zeus on Mount Olympus with pedalboards that are ten feet long and would not dare sacrifice a single effect for the sake of portability.
As you can see from my picture, I wear chain mail to protect my body from the rigors of extreme playing. When you step up on stage with 5 Day Cure, it's like stepping into battle, only instead of swords and arrows, we fight with 32nd notes and pinch harmonics. So in a way, the chain mail is largely symbolic, but my legions of fans have come to appreciate and expect it. You may don similar armor, but only if it fits the theme (no hockey masks or umpire's vests).
So that is our decree. I will not rest until we have our own stadium on the moon, with amplifiers pointed towards the sky's infinite expanses, so that we may truly rock the galaxy. I wish for you to join me on this epic quest.
I think you should play Stealers Wheel - Stuck in the Middle With You - it has plenty of acoustic goodies for Derrick (tamborine, cowbell, etc) :) - plus, plays hommage to 'Reservoir Dogs' :D
