PRESS FOR GIRLS VS. BOYS:
"Battle of the band sexes, what a concept! (Such a good one that I was a judge once, but not this time.) Can men match the Booty Olympics (local trio doing likable Bangles powerpop) or the Marianne Pillsburys (whose latest EP has gal pals hanging out and making out and throwing up, Cars and Breeders riffs, Liz Phair melodies, and a double-gender-bent Prince cover)? With the Assault, the Inevitable Breakups, Locksley, and the Oggs." -- THE VILLAGE VOICE
"Tonight's show takes the "battle of the bands" concept back to third grade. The boy bands are the Oggs, the Inevitable Breakups and Locksley. They'll go head-to-head with the girls team: the Assault, the Marianne Pillsburys and the Booty Olympics. We predict that the girls will win, since boys have cooties." -- TIME OUT NEW YORK

I'm thrilled we won it for the girls team last week -- and despite all the trash talkin', the truth is we're all brothers and sisters, out for the same thing -- to get lai... er, to make great music! ;)
RE: Trash Talking...
Here's a bit of wisdom - The bigger you talk the less you got.
Kickstart is plenty happy to let our music speak for itself - we know that will be more than enough. See you Wed.
xo !
This is great! Two of our favorite bands(HP and The MPs)- one on each team. Listening to the other bands, as well, is getting us excited. This is bound to be a really great night, so all you guys (and girls!) better BRING IT! Lots of pressure for the judges.. haha
If you come to the Girls vs. Boys show on Oct. 5th and root for the Girls Team, I, MARIANNE PILLSBURY OF THE MARIANNE PILLSBURYS, WILL MAKE OUT WITH YOU.*
