PRE-ORDER YOURS HERE!






dear everyone,

we'd love to say that money is no option when it comes to touring and playing shows, but unfortunately, it does make a difference. touring costs money and we are, sadly, not rich.

if you want to help us out in any way, please feel free to click the donate button below. it would mean the world to us.

without you and your support, there is no us.

Influences

The members of Doctor!Doctor! have always had it in mind to do things their own way. From their music and song structure to the ferocious intensity of their live shows to the merchandise they sell, Doctor!Doctor! has believed that fitting a mold of what heavy music “should” sound like is the exact opposite of their beliefs as musicians. Almost 2 years later, they still hold true to this belief, that if you want to make music, or anything for that matter, you should make it your own way and put your whole heart into it. They play fast, passionately, and violently and love what they do.

Started by Piper Williams on vocals and Calvin Maloney on bass in early 2006 from the remains of a previous band, they set out to find musicians with similar ideas about the composition of music and song structure, along with creating a live show that is unforgettable and breathtaking; a spectacle that grabs you by the balls and does not let go. Enter Patrick Quigley on drums and Paul Beaudin on guitar (officially forming the band in June of 2006). Together, with complete creative freedoms, they started writing the music that they felt good about and enjoy playing.

When asked “what do you sound like?” by those who have never heard Doctor!Doctor!, responses are sometimes limited. With influences ranging from the melodies of indie, the angst and intensity of punk and hardcore, the technical competence of metal, and maybe toss in a splash of progressive jazz for good measure, and that’s what we sound like. Confused? So are we. Mix seasoned talent with young ambition, add alarming stage antics, and a whole lot of sass, and you’ve just defined Doctor!Doctor!

We are Doctor!Doctor! We’re not here to play what’s already been played and we’re not just another local band that strives for fame and fortune. We are here to offer a different perspective on heavy music and ask only for an open mind. We make music because that’s what we love to do and plan on doing it for some time.



June 6, 2009


apparently we have not updated this news section since december 3, when we last put up a new profile.
well, it's that time again. we've put up another profile now, and we have a lot of news. so let's make a list, shall we?

1. obviously, WE HAVE A NEW PROFILE. that was simple. want some information about it?

well. for one, the photography was by Piper Williams Photography. if this name sounds familiar to you, it should, as he is.... our vocalist. need promo shots or album photography done? get ahold of him, it's what he does when we're not on tour.

our layout was by neverwhere? design. this is also a job done while not on tour.

2. WE HAVE A NEW ALBUM COMING OUT IN 20 DAYS! it's called Enigma and will be the first release by Lethargic Drive Records out of Chicago.

3. we have a short week of tour with The Blue Letter in a couple of weeks. come hang out with us there!

4. with the release of our album, we are kicking off the six week HELTER-SKELTOUR to the west coast and back again to promote our new album. this will be just us by ourselves. we still have some dates open, if you can help us... get ahold of us!

5. we're going to be on the road as much as possible this year, so get ahold of us if you want us to come to your town. we are tentatively planning on heading out to New England in the fall to round out all the states we didn't hit during the summer.


that might wrap things up for now.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PAGE.
we should have even more new things before too long.


doctor!doctor!



December 03, 2008


It's been a long time since our last update, so we'll do our best to bring you up to speed.

we've been on two tours and played many shows since june the 19th. we had a blast on our month out on the road, from Michigan to Cornerstone 2008 to Arkansas (you guys were awesome) to Texas to Missouri and back. we met a lot of awesome people and slept very greatfully on many people's floors. we are forever indebted to you for your hospitality. this goes doubly for Molly and her mother in Arkansas who let us crash for several days while we fixed our transmission and had a couple of days off.

we also journeyed a few weeks later into wisconsin for the first time and had a great time there as well. we'll be back, we promise.

whilst on the road, we ran into many mishaps including a blown transmission, closed venues and a leaking gas line and it took a toll on our resources and perhaps most importantly our van. As many of you may have noticed at recent shows we are no longer driving the same van. While in recording in Lansing in early October.. Marcus Aurelius broke down for the last time. We were fortunate however to quickly receive a van from one of Paul's relatives in New York. Enter 'the doggie barn.' Also known as 'Ludwig VAN Beethoven.' Ludwig may only be a temporary member of our family, but we are ever so greatful to have him with us and were greatly despaired at the idea of having to cancel shows.

as you may have noticed, we have a new profile up and also new recordings, and if you've been to a show recently you may have also noticed new merch as well. in the coming months we will be offering up new songs, more new merch and new tours as well... so keep your eyes open for that! we will be recording (AGAIN!) with Chris from Oceans Studio in Lansing MI in the near future and will be hopefully releasing a new EP sometime in the first few months of 2009. if you need recording, definitely check him out.. he is affordable and the final product is definitely worth it.

again... thank you to everyone who has been so supportive in the last six months... two years... lifetimes... though a special thank you goes out to Lucas Zigler for enduring us for three long weeks on the road through our most trying times. you were the one guy who kept up spirits when we were at our lowest points and for that we can't thank you enough. we also owe a special thank you to The Shutterblade (aka... Megan) for all she has done for us since she met us. Without her this profile wouldn't exist (thank you for the awesome pictures) and there are probably a lot less people in this world who would know who we are if it weren't for her telling everyone that she knows about us. thanks for the awesome photography and for the friendship as well...

we love you all and hope to see as many of you as possible in the upcoming months,


doctor!doctor!



June 19, 2008


Thank you SO MUCH! to everyone who came out to The Mosaic tonight for our first night of The MisadvenTours Of... summer tour. We had a blast and couldn't have asked for a better night. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

So thanks to many of our awesome awesome fans, two d!d! street team pages went live today! Thanks to Nerissa for posting up a d!d! ST page for MICHIGAN and thanks to Alysha for heading up a page for SOUTHERN INDIANA! If any one is interested in the street team, please check out these pages and join up! We are looking for someone to head up the Northwest Indiana page if anyone is interested. The bulletins on myspace are not working right now but you'll be hearing a lot about the ST's in the next few weeks.
print and post fliers
go to shows
support your locals
be proud of the scene that we have
we won't lose it
not without a fight

There are a lot of problems with the scene, and if we want to save it, we need to return to the grassroots movement it once was. We love you.

thanks a ton,
doctor!doctor!

February 6, 2008


thanks to everyone who came out and supported us this weekend, it was great fun (despite a blown up guitar head...)

here are some pictures from the show



we've got a bunch of new things coming... so keep your eyes peeled...
no really! we mean it... peal your eyes! (ok... so we don't mean it... but seriously... you should probably watch for what's coming.)

we love you,
doctor!doctor!

January 28, 2008


Well everyone, its a new year and time for a lot of new things to happen with doctor!doctor! We have recently been added to the roster of Black Atlantic, please go out and check them out. Bryan from BA has been helping us out a lot and we really appreciate the work he's putting in. We also have picked up two new clothing sponsors: Zexb Wear and ThunderVsLightning. New songs are being written, new merch is being designed, and there is certainly rumor of new promos and a new site design. Some good shows are coming up, so help us out by coming out to them and just shooting us messages with nice things to say. Thank you to all our friends who have been so supportive lately. This is the doctor!doctor! you've been waiting for.

thanks again,
doctor!doctor!

December 27, 2007


Hey there ladies and germs. We are saddened to have to tell you that we are not going to be going on tour this winter. After many weeks of trying to book and having very few responses, money and merch issues, we decided it would be in our best interest to stay home. We are going to play the first 4 dates and the last 2 dates, but as for the others, we have to cancel them. It really sucks and we really, REALLY want to go back out, but we just ran out of time and had to make a decision. Thank you so much for your continued support. We love all of you. To those of you that helped us or tried to help us, we greatly appreciate it; more than you may realize. Hopefully, next tour will work out better for us.

thanks again,
doctor!doctor!

October 20, 2007


hey guys... it's us again. thanks so much to everybody that came out to see us, Send The Dawn, Know Lyfe and the other bands at Karma last night... we had a blast... (and we're all the more sore for it...)

next weekend (if you're interested) we are playing TWO halloween shows at Eagles in Lake Station (indiana) and YOU SHOULD COME... BOTH NIGHTS WILL BE DIFFERENT!!!

and in other news... AUTOPSY FEST IS BACK ON... on November 24th we (with all the other bands that were scheduled for the fest) will be in Imlay City Michigan playing our hearts out... if you can make.... you should.

doctor!doctor!

October 04, 2007


sorry to have to tell you this, but Autopsy Fest has been cancelled due to the venue pulling out 24 hours before doors were set to open... it's out of our hands, and out of the promoters hands too... so don't hold it against them. (please)... we'll be back out that way soon enough (we hope... want us to come out there? yeah... help us book ...)

doctor!doctor!

September 30, 2007


all right everybody, really quick update... our next show is AUTOPSY FEST!... you want to see us? we're playing right after Kissy Face Fashion Faux-Pas at 10:40. you should be there all day... it starts at 10 in the morning... and with 39 bands playing for 12 bucks? you really don't want to miss it. so we'll see you guys there.

doctor!doctor!

September 19, 2007


well...this weekend was a bit of a downer... as we said goodbye to our friends in Rogers Met An Iranian... we're going to miss them, and wish them the best of luck in what they're doing next. (in related news... check out The Crowned Virgin)

this weekend we'll be playing a GRAFFITI PARTY with our friends in Re-Inventing Yesterday, I Once Was and Their Teeth Will Be Of Lions... so you should come check it out.

we're also planning a winter tour for not long after Christmas... we'll be headed south (towards Texas) so be on the lookout for that.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR AN ACTIVE CLOTHING SPONSOR!... if you know one and can hook us up... LET US KNOW!

doctor!doctor!

August 4, 2007


thanks so much to everyone who came out to support our "coming home" show last night. we had a blast, despite the brief interlude for blood clean-up. officially we have ruled last night's headwound as our worst injury so far. so for everyone who was there... congratulations, you just saw history in the making. pat now has a 2.5 inch gash just above his forehead which will probably leave a bit of a mark. if you MISSED last nights show... you have a second chance to catch the mayhem TONIGHT at skunks nest in niles... or if that is too far away ... perhaps TOMORROW night at the VFW in portage michigan. we promise.. tonight WILL be memorable, however, as it is our official LAST SHOW of this tour.

in other news... if you live in the grand rapids area, or like showbread at all... WE WILL BE PLAYING WITH SHOWBREAD AT SKELLETONES ON AUGUST 30th. we can't stress enough how excited we are about this show. come out... support. it's only 7 bucks. also... come welcome their new drummer... our friend Ricky (formerly of Our Hearts Hero.) it's going to be a blast... so far we know that The Skies Revolt is also playing.

anyways... we will now return you to your normally scheduled programming... and we'll see AS MANY OF YOU as possible tonight in Niles.

doctor!doctor!

July 16, 2007


as many of you may already know... tour has not gone exactly as planned. we will be back at home sooner than expected. for more information... check this blog.

Where would you guys be interested in playing? There's headliners which is the place most of the major bands play at (I'm not sure how hard it is to book a show there though). Then there is a place called Rick's Cafe which is very easy to get a show with and can get a decent crowd as well. I don't know I've never helped a band book a show before lol
