Crash Pad is a punk rock and roll band from Gainesville, Florida. Crash Pad was founded and began playing shows in Spring 1996. Crash Pad consists of Brian Krashpad on vocals and guitar, Ronnie Dazombie on bass and vocals, Bruce Barkwill on drums, and Mitch Estic on guitar and vocals.
Crash Pad has been described by local newspaper the Gainesville Sun as "Gainesville's long-running, hard-working, old-school punks." ("Sound Check" column, Pat Hughes, 9/17/99.) The editor of local alternative newspaper Moon Magazine, writing for the website GNV.yourvillage.com in June 2000, described Crash Pad as "Melodic and raw, through various line up changes Crash Pad has been a mainstay of local music," ("Crash Pad Performs Tonight," Colin Whitworth, 6/12/00), and Detours magazine (part of the Alligator student newspaper) agrees on the "mainstay" description. (Fall Music Showcase to Get Eclectic this Weekend," Sekhmet, 10/5/00). The G-Note webpage, in 1999, called Crash Pad "one of Gainesville's only punk bands." Local entertainment magazine Chomp says "Crash Pad brings back the punk flavor Gainesville is missing" and ,"definitely recommend[s]" checking out Crash Pad (October 1999 Local Scene column), and Rock 104's Brian Walker says "Crash Pad... are Gainesville's long-time, famous punksters." (Rock 104 Concert Series Locals Only E-mail, 3/3/01). Maximum RockNRoll zine called Crash Pad "solidly rocking" with a "heavy on the guitars punk sound, and... vocals [that] are mostly snotty with a healthy dose of angry thrown in." (July 2002, Erin Yanke)
In 2000 Crash Pad won the Hogtown Music Award for Best Punk Band, and in 2001 was named to the Alligator's "Hot 20" list of Gainesvilles' Best Bands. In 2003 Crash Pad appeared on the Home Van charity compilation CD on Signalpath Records featuring Gainesville's best bands. Crash Pad's members have been in other local punk and underground rock bands, including Allen Wrench, Sick Dick and the Volkswagens, Hoyt and the HotHeads, Dynamite Charade, Freelance Butcher, and Led Astray.

Hah! I met Bo Diddley at the Lowe's on Archer Road before he passed away, but I never got to play with him. I play bass with Bo Coker. I also have a habit of playing a different bass at every show, it gets amusing reactions.
Hopefully I can catch you guys playing some time soon.

A dog, a cat, and a penis are sitting around the campfire one nite. The dog says, "My life sucks, my master makes me do my business on a fire hydrant!" The cat says, " I don't think so, my master makes me do my business in a box of cat litter."
The penis outraged says, " At least your master does'nt put a bag over your head and make you do push ups until you throw up!!!!!!!"
A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles. The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him. He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife. She directs him down the correct aisle. A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a ball of string on the counter. She says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife? He answers, "You see, it's like this. Yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers; 'cause it's sooooooooooo much cheaper. So, I figure if I have to roll my own . . . so does she"
