   About Lamp
Lamp is a two piece progadelic band based in Cork. This two headed, four armed lazy as fuck, procrastinating monster is made up of two young men with sickeningly Irish surnames; Ted Murphy(drummer in Jezery) and Shane O' Leary(guitarist/singer in Jezery). These two wasters have known each other for nearly 10 years and have been playing in bands together since the age of about 15. Dispite all this they're still slopy as muck, although every now and then, when the moon is right they pull off the mindboggeling, hole tingeling experience of sounding tight. As of right now Lamp have no songs recorded to put up on there myspace, but things change...... hopefully, and sooner or later there bound get off there arses and record something. So if,....no, when they manage to put some songs up they hope you'll enjoy them. "Be young, be foolish, but be happy." Take Care. {LAMP} –noun 1. any of various devices furnishing artificial light, as by electricity or gas. Compare fluorescent lamp, incandescent lamp. 2. a container for an inflammable liquid, as oil, which is burned at a wick as a means of illumination. 3. a source of intellectual or spiritual light: the lamp of learning. 4. any of various devices furnishing heat, ultraviolet, or other radiation: an infrared lamp. 5. a celestial body that gives off light, as the moon or a star. 6. a torch. 7. lamps, Slang. the eyes. –verb (used with object) 8. Slang. to look at; eye. —Idiom 9. smell of the lamp, to give evidence of laborious study or effort: His dissertation smells of the lamp.

"It's like free tickets in a candy shop" -Bould Boy, April 27th. The Shanes' fun talk.

Yeah, went on a trip down memory lane there last night. Those pictures brought back some memories. Fuckin' hell. Oh yeah, why don't we play Tanglevision, it's fucking ridiculous, can't believe we wrote that 3 years ago, it's like something we'd do now. Which we will do now.
