   About M.I.A.

M.I.A. is an American band with its roots in the punk music scene of the 1980s. Originally from Las Vegas, the band relocated to Southern California where they helped define the "Orange County sound." M.I.A. released four albums in the 1980s, all now considered classics of the genre. They toured extensively, playing shows with other seminal bands of the period, including Dead Kennedys, Social Distortion, T.S.O.L., Circle Jerks, Dickies and others. Using the band’s classic material as a foundation, M.I.A. is writing and recording new songs and performing at a select number of shows.

In 2008 MIA is:

Nick Adams - Guitar (1980-85)
Larry Pearson - Drums (1982-85)
Chris Moon - Drums (1980-82, 1985-87)
Todd Sampson - Vocals (1980)
Bob Thomson - Bass

Hey M.I.A., Wood nymphs sprinkle your path with rose petals while you dance and prowl in the sequined moonlight with leftover cupcake sprinkles. How it passes there and back again like a tear drop glistening in moonlight. Please let me hear more of that wonderful sound. Blinking reveals the true visage of beauty hidden within your eyes. Panoramic aromavision is the future. You ever remind me of the enigma of happy thoughts I once forgot. I relentlessly desire cotton candy lollipops. Your beauty is equal to the smoothness of a polished gem. Your beauty is multiplexed in contemplation of your multidimensional effervescence. Entranced by the sweet harmony of your lips, I gaze beyond reason to find the oasis of your brilliant soul. You have not yet reached the height of your creativity. You breath as delicately as vapors flowing towards an attractive flame. Your wonderfully bright soul keep the demons from torturing me. The music that flows from your instruments overwhelms me with creativity.

Hey There, I Am Confused??? That "New M.I.A." Song Sounds Like An ALL/Descendents Big Drill Car Outtake from 94 Or Something. What Gives, Why Use the Name M.I.A.
, A Band We all Love, Especially When There Isn't 1 Original(Hell, Semi-Original) Member in The 2008 Version??? Just Curious
