   About Biting Midge
We are the best band on the face of our basement. We listen to alot of punk and ska and we play alot of punk and ska (without horns). We have dozens of originals, but we still play covers of our favorites. All of us contribute to the composing process so hopefully it doesn't all sound the same, but we listen to the same stuff so maybe it does and we just don't know it. You decide. Also, we owe much of our "success" to Twitch and Rochester Ska. Check it out for a skankin good time.

Oh and P.S. Our Recordings are just Audio ripped from Harrison Ronan's video camera, so thats why it sucks. Hopefully within the next month or so we can record some of our shit for real, but don't hold us to that statement.

Hey all you Mafia fans!
We've got some awesome news, and some not so awesome news. The awesome news is that we have a SHOW ON JUNE 12TH at the 1st Baptist Church in Westfield, NJ! It's gonna be an wonderous lineup.
The not so awesome news is that we're breaking up, and THIS IS THE LAST TIME EVER TO SEE THE MAFIA PLAY. After this, there will be no more Cats Pooping on Pillows, no more Michael J Fox attempting to play Nintendo Wii, and most of all, no more Nosebleeds.
And we're gonna divorce Awful Waffle LIVE on stage.
Brick By Brick Productions Presents:
June 12 @ Westfield 1st Baptist
170 Elm St, Westfield NJ
6pm, All Ages, $10

sim asked me Why do they tell you its not about size.You and i know that is pure bull,I had an experience like this my self.Im going to tell you something that i was asked not to leak out but my so called friend hasent called me for sometime now since he's been busy.Ok he went from having a small yang to a monster in no time at all.he has put on three and a half inches in a short time ,an get this it's still getting bigger.He has been secretly taking these tabs from RICSE.COM copy and paste the address into your browser.I found out when I was at his flat, three saturdays ago, we were getting ready to go to the music shop, so while he was in the can, I went in his room, looked under his bed and found a bag with tabs in it, there was like eight full packs and four empty ones, all ordered from RICSE.COM I thought it was funny at first but then when he came out and saw me looking at them, he lost it and told me to never let his little secret out,especially chicks that he has been dating for the past while, now that I think of it, he has been rather busy with all the honeys in the zone, when just a while back he was lost when it came to females.I diden't believe him until he layed it all on the table, I did see his stick and yes, it is huge,really huge, the thickest and longest one I ever seen.
I know this sounds really shallow, but I am considering ordering eight packs from the website at RICSE.COM for yours trully.. he does not have a web page, so he is not gonna see this. They guarentee that the jells will work on any man, or they give you your money back,Im living proof that they do work on any guy, see for your self.RICSE.COM
