"The dogs love "Delightfully Evil" but the cats hate "Toys for the Witches" and "Unmarked Grave." No shit, here I was editing copy, speakers thumping away, when "Unmarked Grave" opens up with that asthmatic banshee-gasp. Two cats levitated off the balustrade into the rubber tree and downstairs, dumping a dish of kittie crunchies off in the process. All 4 dogs quit listening and dashed off to eat up the cat food. The third cat bolted straight for the top of my head, fortunately missing the open ink bottle. (Speedballs, remember?) But the feline populace has to fend for itself around here. Everybody likes "Rain Is Comin' Down" and "A Law Against Me." " - Morticia & Gomez

They by far exceeded my expectations!They kept the crowd on their feet with amazing guitar solos and awesome original songs that I will be singing in my head for days to come. Their stage presence and professionalism kept the audience in the palm of their hands even after the show when they took the time to meet and sign autographs with some very excited concert goers. I will definitely be keeping my eyes open as to where these guys will be playing again. They are GREAT local musicians and well worth seeing again and again!"- Jenn73 SEMissourian.com

"Artist of the Year: Drivin' Rain. To say that they bounced back after an unfortunate and crushing loss would be an understatement. The Rain Gang came back on fire. With the addition of a new guitarist after the loss of the great Tommy DeWolf, Drivin' Rain has set the road on fire. And now they've got the record deal and from what I'm hearing, alot of great tour options coming up, the momentum is there for 2009 to be their year." - Smits - CapeScene.com
