About MirrorAmerica

As someone once wrote: "Yet another rock band formed from the ashes of America's incestuous rock scene. MirrorAmerica play guitars like aMiniature, drums like Sarge and basses like Sixto. San Diego angular punk rock goes to dinner with midwest pop."

BRYCE	Jan 18 2007 7:49 PM I've said it once, and I'll say it again-John Lee is a fucking amazin' g'tar player!-It's like hes still channelin that whole early 90's San Diego/ Chapel Hill scene....those were the days!

\| C · K · H \|	Apr 7 2006 12:57 PM WOW! Glad to see John Lee making songs again, I've always loved his singing and guitar. Did I mention I have the "BASSBOOST" tape you guys put out(Scheming Intelligensia?). MirrorAmerica to me is very reminiscent of early "bar aMiniature"(pre-Depth 5), more loose and a little more rocking and fun, but I maybe wrong. I love it! I just have one tiny nag John: please don't redo any songs you've already done. I just think the originals are better. I always thought BASSBOOST's version of "skyline" was much better than plexiwatt's and I still like the WEEPO version on the Drip Tank(gosh, I miss them!) split you guys did w/ them better than Depth 5. Well, you can redo any songs cause they're your's, but sometimes your first "choice" is the best choice. Much, much love for John Lee though. It was quite a privilege to have watched aMiniature grow in SD. You & Pretendo & Creedle(if they ever happen) should do a Southern Cal tour!
BRYCE	Mar 12 2006 7:30 PM 'Stop the Dedication' is like a triumphant progression in Lee's songwriting. It reminds me of 'Towner on the B-side' and 'Physical Climber.' The whole Mirroramerica album has these amazing dual leads. It's like 'Murktime Cruiser part II! Are you guys going to make the jump to a label like Touch n'Go or Kill Rock Stars?? How about touring, I seriously would kill to see a live show!-Sorry for the overabundance of enthusiasm but I gotta say you guys are like one of a kind. Nobody is doing what you guys are doing. I hope to find musicians who I can collaborate with and find that kind of formula!!!
pretendo	Mar 5 2006 2:45 AM Spent the day listening to old punk albums so I of course had to throw on some Toxic Reasons, Articles of Faith, Naked Raygun and Effigies in homage to last weekend. Man, the Effigies. That was some shit. Tomorrow I'm onto Die Kreuzen in honor of Mill Walk Kay... Let us know what weekend we should start booking some shows out here...
pretendo	Feb 28 2006 5:31 PM Now this could only happen to a band like we And only happen in a town like this And so we say to you most gratefully As we throw you a kiss This is our kind of town, Chicago is Our kind of town, Chicago is Our kind of people too People who, smile at you And each time we roam, Chicago is Calling us home, Chicago is One town that won't let you down It's our kind of town Our kind of town Chicago is our kind of razzmatazz And it has, all that jazz And each time we leave, Chicago is Tuggin' our sleeve, Chicago is The Wrigley Building, Chicago is The Chicago Cubbies, Chicago is One town that won't let you down It's our kind of town
BRYCE	Feb 26 2006 12:49 AM Since I am here in Montana, I can't see these guys, it's harsh, really harsh!-John Lee is my idol as far as playing guitar is concerned!-Long live soul miner!
butterFace	Feb 19 2006 4:25 PM john lee...the best drinking buddy a guy could ever ask for!
