This guy said it best... so here it is!

Powerful foursome from Springfield, IL, N.I.L.8 debuted in 1989 with their first vinyl record featuring "Last Flash of Paisley Pastel" and "Too Loud," followed by the self-produced Six Inch Extension in 1991. Led by brothers Jeff Williams and Bruce Williams, the band signed up to Fundamental Records before issuing Hallelujah I'm Gonna Kill Myself in 1993. N.I.L.8 started getting involved in the U.S. hardcore punk field, performing intense live shows with songs mainly based on social issues. 1995's Eunuch became their first Fuse Records release, followed by the reissue of Hallelujah I'm Gonna Kiss Myself in 1996 and Doug a year later.

Do you think there is any place for Zombie Sluts at a 4th of July BBQ? And what if Illinois livestock suddenly decided to seek revenge on the farmhands who harass them??? LOL, that would be amusing to watch.

Have a great weekend...

Question: How to removed baked on duct tape residue from a t-shirt?

Answer: Hairspray. Just a guess, you need to get on your bike and peddle down to the dollar store...get a 99 cent bottle (aerosol does work best) of Aqua Net or whatever is cheap. Saturate the sticky stuff and wash the tee. I washed the one I have in warm...that could be a bad idea on some of the merch but hairspray usually still works in cold. You might have to do it more then once then.

Waste not, want not...try it and that pooch??? Unscrewed!!!

I LOVE fixable problems...fuck yeah!

Your art is gonna be in Chicago? That's exciting and fun. I probably should worry about where I'm going in Bloomington before I worry about where I'm going in June though...i try to remember before a roadtrip that addresses are good...my whole I'll get there somehow thing doesn't always work out so well...I oughta go find that.

Looking forward to the show...much love!
