   About Carmen The Cactus
CTC started in '05 as an acustic duo playing small weekday shows just for the hell of it. We added a bass player shortly after that to add more rhythm and depth to the acoustic sound, not to mention the added harmony. Next thing you know, we're booking clubs and starting to do a little traveling. With the final addition of a drummer, and some electric guitar, we decided to go full time playing anywhere people are willing to listen. We have a sets worth of original material for opening acts or multiple band nights, and a wide variety of unique covers for clubs and whatever we may get ourselves into.

I really enjoyed rush hour. I am glad it ended up with a decent group. Do I get some kind of award for being the first one? Sorry, I didn't make it out later. 2 glasses of wine, a tall beer, and a big steak made me really sleepy.
