PETE
Photobucket Pete is the front man of the Halfprice stage act and has been with there since day One. Pete forms the main voice of the Halfprice and the rhythm section in most songs playing fast and furious ska tunes mixed in with melodic punk rock anthems and metal riffs. His ska vocal attack is at super-sonic speeds and his raspy voice blends in well with the vocal harmonies of Markus and Rene. He has been known to be difficult at times but his attitude is simple and all about having FUN.

THE DFG
Photobucket Co-Founding member of Halfprice, MarKus, is possibly the most outrageous member of the Halfprice campaign. A wonderful human specimen loved by both men and women makes him a unique addition to the HalfPrice menagerie. This German superhero is no joke. His flexible Bavarian fingers tickle out fat bass licks especially over Ska sections and no-one can quite grasp the intensity of his raspy vocal attack which is enough to make the elderly cringe and buckle up their living room seatbelts whilst the army of youth cheer as if they were born for this ride
KYLE THE MACHINE
Photobucket Known as The Machine because of his frenetic playing style Kyle is better known for his manly charms and the unique ability bordering on hyperactivity to be in a constant rush for the next show. Johannesburg born and raised, Kyle is by leaps and bounds the best looking member of the band. Kyle forms the beat and rhythm background section of the band. He plays metal and ska beats infused with solid Punk Rock rhythms effortlessly and has mastered the art of playing with supreme precision.
MAWK!!
Photobucket Mawk hit a crossroads in his life: Choose to play indie rock or join HalfPrice. The decision was simple, and Mawk became the newest upgrade to the HalfPrice menagerie. Known for his sexually outrageous appearances in the Wank Machine, Mawk slaps out solos so aggressively sweet, it would make his own mother want to wash his feet with her tears. His smoothly reticulated vocals also make him a very popular both on stage and with the ladies/men/small furry mammals

UGH! It's just that he picks the damnedest (I know it's not a word) times to take a nap. I am STARVING and I didn't plan on cooking because my dad gave us a gift certificate to go to Ruby Tuesday and we had plans to go. I tried to wake him up over an hour ago and he's still laying there. I'm moving on from annoyed to pissed off! anywayz, it went good. We got stuff for our wii. How was yours? know what sucks? that IM supposed to be the one that knows about "web-stuff" and your profile is better than mine? Maybe I should just let you take care of mine like mom does Dan's...ohh, that reminds me, speaking of mom; i finally got her to start taking those surveys online like i'm doing, cuz i know the extra money sure comes in handy. you should really try em. i mean, if i got mom to try it, psh, i can get anybody to, heh..i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is:

... anyhow, I know we are both kinda like "wo
ah" right now. But I just wanted to take a second to remind you that you are Amazing!

Die erste Ausgabe des neuen Schundmagazins DIE! ODER WIR ist gerade ein paar Tage aus der Druckerei, und schon gibt es Ärger mit Anwälten und Kioskbesitzern.
Im Rahmen ihres Wirkens für Anstand und Moral gehen in den nächsten Tagen gleich ein paar Tausend Exemplare durch den Reißwolf...

Es geht dabei um Comic-Geschichten mit "Gewalt-Exzessen" rund um ein Schul-Massaker und die Stürmung eines Einkaufszentrums durch Punks, Hip-Hopper und Nazis, die den erwähnten Damen und Herren "jugendgefährdend" erschienen. Das Ergebnis: Der Sammlerpreis des Heftes ist auf FÜNF MILLIARDEN EURO gestiegen! HURRA!

(Wäre nett, wenn Du das weiterposten würdest... wird nicht einfach werden, das Heft am Leben zu erhalten!)
