---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The floods of November, 1985 devastated much of West Virginia. Authorities called the record-breaking floods that began November 4 the worst of the twentieth century. More than 3,500 homes and 180 businesses were wiped out. 123 bridges were destroyed or damaged and hundreds of thousands of farm animals were killed. 47 West Virginians lost their lives, 28 of whom resided in Pendleton and Grant counties. 33 of West Virginia's 55 counties were declared disaster areas. This band is a lot like that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Video from our January 19th show @ 123 Pleasant Street.

Hey guys!  I've started posting songs to The WV Scene Playlist, but need the help of all the WV Area bands to decide how the Playlists should be done.  I'd really appreciate it if you took part in the poll I've posted on The WV Scene myspace page.  After all this is a site meant to look after the best interests of the artists whether they be professional or just beginning.  (Be sure to add our activity stream so that we can better communicate what it is we're trying to do).

Hey everyone!  It's about time to post some of your tunes on The WV Scene Playlist...  Until I come up with a better system I'll post the songs of the first ten bands who respond and I'm planning on including a wide variety of styles on the list.  Thanks so much!  (I won't be posting a song from my own band till later since this site isn't set up to promote my own self interests).

its part of joseph henry's plan to start a baby war that will consume the earth, leaving only the strongest babies behind to dominate international affairs and build an economy on the strength of gerber, inc.
