It started off with Me (Seamus) writing "Lonely Drinker" while wasted in Luke's room. Then Luke and I started writing songs and recruited B somewhere in between paying off hefty vandalism charges (Luke insists that it's ART), M.I.P charges, In cooperative behavior fines and running from "Public Safety". We put out our demo "Never Let 'Em Win" over the summer of '06. We played a couple of house parties before we recruited Spencer one hazy night, after he cooked us the best tacos this side of the Mississippi.
We've rerecorded "Never Let 'Em Win" with some added on songs to be named "Are Setting Rebel Words to Tunes" & have recorded an EP with songs that we only play when we're "Inxtremely Ekneebre8ed". Both albums of are still in need of mastering.
We were nearly called "beer card slutz" before coming up with the Bad Habit Bandits. Our friends collectively decided that there are no better three words to describe us.
Due to Luke being dicked by the court, Bandit separation, & the horrid "D" word; we are on break until further notice.
Well I just got outta rehab and I'm on mandatory supervised antabuse therapy, but if i can find a pharmacy to keep me legal while i'm in ashland i won't miss that show come hell or hitchhiking. Mischief Brew huh? Nice work.
Oh Luke, you drunken son of a sailor. Roman's numero es either 7144656243 or 7147750889. Well, technically both of those are his number, just I forget which is landline and which is cellular. My number is either 7146583525 or 7144836400, and one of those is just plain fake.
I need a room, preferably medium sized or large, in a house or an apartment or a trailer, or anything really as long as its close to downtown portland and in a chill hood. The roommates should be artists rabblerousers writers magicians punks vegans cyclists and other such lawbreakers. They have to be OK with my partner and I living together (I've talked to a lot of people that are not OK with couples), but I can assure you we are non-drama people and we keep our shit in out colons where it belongs. Preferably no more than like $300 per month. We can pay about four months up front too, if they're worried that we don't have jobs yet.
I was kind of hoping that we could get a place with you...when's your probation over, or can I kidnap you?
dude i'm always asking ur brother how you are. I live in San Jose, CA now. Going to San Jose State University studying Hospitality Management. I'm doing good. Working for the Marriott brand but in one of their extended stay hotels, making friends having fun. You outa trouble yet? O yes I know of your doings? Your brother and I write all the time. You still in Oregon? What you been up too?
doesn't the law enforcement of your area know by now that you're not going to feel the need to change because of a slap on the hand? anyway, that really blows, and i am glad i am not you. i'm back in irvine for a bit to visit my parents and i'm having a real blast. seriously though, things have gotten a little weird recently and i'm glad to be resting up (bodies need that every once and awhile), although i think school would do wonders on getting my mind off of things. oh, and i'm graduating next year (a year early, woo) and promptly getting the haaale out of california, maybe even the whole damn country. i hope things aren't too bad, and you can start touring again soon. and happy birthday (in half an hour).
your friend, giulia
p.s. although i do agree that your criticism of skunks is fair, i'd like to raise the issue of skunks being, indeed, cuter than raccoons. on the other hand, i don't think i've ever even seen a skunk so i'm really just talking out of my ass.
Hey Luke! I'm still up in Portland doing the school work thing. when are you guys heading out? If I head to Bend in the near future, which I plan on doing, I definitely will let you know. not drinking much eh? haha.. it had to happen someday. I'm glad you're doing good! what are you going to school for? its good to hear you're still alive and well buddy.
Luke, two things: Don't forget to wait for me to get tattooed, and do ya wanna come over tomorrow for food and possibly beer? Call my house cuz my phone is outta minutes.
Thanx for Your Friendship ,and we promise to cut up those plastic rings that fasten together six packs so no creatures will cease to be happy,,,,,,You RocK!!!
Do ya'll remember Amn? The big, red haired, bearded gay Irish guy, real condensending. I saw him in Missoula. Said he stayed with you boys for a few months. The travels have been full of fun and spacebags. I owe ya'll one for opening my eyes. Stay in trouble, dont get caught. - Amy
This version of "Don't Fall In Love With the GOP" makes the one I have on hard copy sound like the Jackson 5. The title will always and forever be good advice for the masses. Never grow up, Michael. Peter. You little instabilities that personally pinched my Disney heart out (and I thank you for it). PS: My one-eyed cat died, and so I've been demoted from "Queen of the Pirate Hookers" to citrus huntress, accordianist, crew STD checks, and pig feeder. Pa-che, boymen. Corripe Cervisiam (seize the beer)! And don't be strangers, otherwise fuck your candy.
