Born through the intercourse of Gods and monsters the four super beings in "Acid Wish" fell from Valhalla to battle on the bloody stages of rock. Blessed with charisma that all but erases their songwriting deficiencies they continue to mesmerise and deafen audiences from Whitehorse to Turks & Caicos. They are a paradox of genius interpretation and corporate whoring that turns any party into the epicentre of a nuclear explosion. If you like to party to high tempo rock then you could hire just any high tempo rock party band. If you want to have your bowels liquified you couldtake a whole bunch of bowel liquifying medicine. If you want to laugh and cry until your fingernails hurt then you could take nitrous oxide and ask a friend to kick you in the crotch. If you want all three of these things at the same time then hire "Acid Wish" to come to your party and bring their devil music.
You my friends Rocked the Beer and Titty deck!!! (joe pisapia's term for LIdo- you gotta love it) I so love your sets. YOU RAWK!! (The old lady who did not know all the words- but deserves A for effort)
I think those new songs up are sort of scary, yet hilarious... but most of all they would make great and important public service songs for radio and t.v. spots. Enjoy the ship!
Thanks for supporting my music.
I'm trying out a new promotion and I need your help! I have a way for you to get a free song from me and share it with your friends at the same time! Here's an MP3 Postcard. It's for my song "She Walks Away”.
Check out the postcard, and listen to the track. You can download it for free! All you need to do is send this postcard to 3 of your friends that you think would like my music. I hope you love it and, once again, thanks for supporting indie music!!

I am overjoyed to know that Budgie has reappeared but I hope you realize that with that news story his Bounty Hunter will be set in motion on a mission to track him down. I might try to throw off the scent by offering up a piece of Tantric's Wolf shirt I ripped off his back after the last show. I hope the dogs don't get too close to Tantric for I fear some long desired "animal-love" might ensue but it should buy just enough time for Budgie to get far enough away.
We're STILL getting comments about the show at Fat Teddy's. You made quite an impression! Hope to see you guys back in the not too distant future...
Keep on keepin' on! (And if you want pics for the site, give me an email address to send the ones I managed to get up on Mt. Washington...)
Cheers!
I'm so glad you guys are coming on Ships and Dip III with us ! Hopefully, you can rock us on the Lido deck every night and the jam session will continue till sunrise!
See you on the cruise !
Just wanted to thank you guys for an awesome time on the Lido deck during the Ships and Dip cruise ! You were amazing and we all found ourselves eagerly running up to see you perform night after night ! I really hope you join us next year for S&D 3 ! Hopefully the jam session will last till sunrise next year... now THAT would be awesome ! (I'll buy the beer!)
Thanks Acid Wish !!
