May 24, 2006 - Damon gets the keys
Wow, wow wow. You just never know who's out there. This is so cool.
Keith Carbone put this together for us -- so cool -- and like a gentleman, handed over the keys. You rock. I reckon we'll drive it from here, best we can. Thanks, Keith. Also, big thanks to David Hornbuckle, who has been instrumental in keeping us from slipping entirely into the void.
Keith's gracious original bio for us was such:
This is just a fan site. There is tons of info both at www.engine88.net
(the official site) including a free download of the album Flies 'N Death 'N Stuff. Then there are more free downloads at Horbuckle.org
Enjoy. Engine 88 was a punk rock band in the 1990's. They came from the East Bay (Berkeley, San Francisco) scene. They are on of the most under rated bands of the past 100 years.
