CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO OF LIFESITE LIVE AT THE SAINT ON NOV. 22 2006
Lifesite Formed in January 1994 by Mike Scotto, Marc Bennett, Dave Cusanelli, Bill Jewel and Dave Johnson. Just having finished up playing with the world famous band Withdraw, the 5 guys from the Asbury Park area of New Jersey got together and set out to make hardcore music with a little flavor. Lifesite put out two demos on their own and then were signed to New Life Shark Records (Bochum, Germany) in early 1995. In June of 1995 they released the first record Invisible Wish on New Life and followed it up with a European Tour in November/December 1995. They visited Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and Belgium. There was a second full length album recorded with Mike Turner (fomerly of NJ local band Stain), but never released.
In 1996 the band went through some line up changes and then went their seperate ways after a small stint of performing with new band members and releasing a third demo. Lifesite reunited in 2006 which we thought would be our last show of all time, this show in turn is what brought us to the 2008 European tour. Who'd a thought!!!!
Marc now lives in San Diego CA and owns a tattoo shop www.propagandatattoo.com. Mike Scotto still lives in Jersey and plays in a band called Agency, http://www.myspace.com/agencymusic . Dave J. now lives in Wyoming and, he is a comedian. Dave C. still lives in Jersey and works for a local cable TV company. Rob lives in Virgina and has a kid on the way. Mike Turner is a sound engineer and plays in Vulture with our good friend Bubba. Bill is probably running the country or something for sure.
hey guys what's up? everything's going all right? hope to see you again sometime, heard that your tour has been delayed. well anyways we hope we have the honor to share a stage with you guys again in the near future.
Hey dudes!!! Everything s fine round here. We'll definately see us... You'll play a show at my friends club. 16th APRIL... I more or less organized it, WITH BIG BIG help from STRENGTH!
So hope you're all fine too. I'm really looking forward to see ya!!
If I do decide to roll back to Jerz, I wont know for a few weeks. I am waiting for my full time winter schedule, and then I can find out about getting shifts covered. I want to, but it all depends...
we ve been in the studio @ elch records yesterday. gerrit said we gonna play some shows with you. we ll see. sounds like great fun in april.. lookin forward.
Ryan said he can transfer those songs to cd and he would be able to e-mail you with the MP3. I think it will be ready some time early next week if not sooner. Just send me your email address again, I'm not sure if the one I have is current.
I'll see what I can do. Ryan is pretty good with IPOD stuff so there might be a way he can "McGuyver" it to cd/MP3 or something I will call him today and ask him.
