Who I'd like to meet: More bands and music fans. Good people.
Don't you hate it when lame ass Rock bands from Chicago, whom you foolishly befriended months ago, randomly appear in comment form to invite you out to their inane shows as if they believe you're gullible enough (you know gullible isn't in the dictionary, right?!) and/or lacking in a social life to actually come hang? Me too. Good thing we're not much of a band or this would be awkward! Awkward like the first dance between two hormone raging teens going through puberty, haha! Alas, it's us, Oui Si Only You, in our most impersonal social networking form. Sorry to get you all excited to read your new comment only to be disappointed like a jilted lover on prom night. It's not all bad, at least we didn't do one of those weird, "Do you like me?" comments, right? I don't think our fragile hearts could have taken the answer to that one! Any who, we're rocking (I know, debatable right, but whether it's master debatable remains the ultimate conundrum!) our last few shows for the year out at a few splendid, unknown little Chicago establishments called Double Door (1572 N. Milwaukee Ave; 21+) on Wed. Nov. 18th at 8pm and Reggie's Rock Club (2109 S. State St.; 17+) on Sat. Nov. 28th at 7pm. We could all perish happily . . . if that's possible . . . knowing you came out and mocked our uninspired /downright ignorant brand of music along with our A.D.D. riddled stage energy. Peace face.

Hey Andy!! Figure it's been a minute or two since I hopped over the myspace gates and trespassed through your page while endlessly annoying the crap out of you in the process! We've got a few killer shows coming up on Wednesday Sept. 23rd at Shark City in Glendale Heights (21+) and Saturday Sept. 26th at Penny Road Pub in Barrington (All Ages)! We'd love to see you out there rocking out as you pelt us with pennies like we're freshman at our first high school pep rally, out of disgust over what you're hearing, haha! Kidding! Just thought this would be a better way to holler at our friends than posting oversized flyers that take up half your page or Youtube videos, making this more impersonal than it already is and becoming one of those dreaded, "myspace bands!" Hope everything is going swimmingly on your side of the glowing box . . . yup, busted out swimmingly, haha! I use far too many exclamation points to emphasize my point, haha!!! Damn it. Peace.
Can I hit in the MORNING without giving you half of my dough, and even worse if I was broke would you still want me....? Can ya, can ya, can ya, bounce wit me, bounce wit me? Uh uh.... Major Coins.
Hey! Hope you're having a great summer so far. Me and my girlfriends will be out and about next Saturday, and plan on winding up at the hideout. Dare you to surprise us there!
Hey Andy, Just dropping by your page to thank you for your friendship. I figure you've got enough bands shamelessly prostituting themselves on myspace that I'll spare you another! We actually take a genuine interest in talking to the people we befriend and are always looking to reach out and connect with fellow musicians. Feel free to drop by our page and check out our sound (mixing Hard Rock w/ Hip Hop) or just shoot the breeze with us. Don't be a stranger now! Peace.
hey man, long time no see! hope all is well. I ate at pizza metro the other night and that reminded me of you, I'm pretty sure you're the one that introduced me to it.
Andy! Tab Book is out for our new album! I even did the awesome thing and had them made with Spiral Binding, so they actually stay open. If you would like to get one, they come with Free Stickers and a Bottle Opener. Just $20.
You can order and see pictures of them here.

Let me know if you have any questions about it.
