"Octopus is the only true neo-post grunge alternative indie original — a something you have never heard before type act, with real creative talent, drive, and energy — keeping it real in the music world . Their music speaks for itself, so be there to experience Octopus live. " ~ IQ's (Green Bay)
whats up fellas! Im really enjoying "don't you break this love" at the moment so stay fresh..Oh and we need to do another show..eventually! were workin on a lot of new material so it might be a minute..but keep movin forward..much love
We have our new members now, but training 'em up on our songs has been going slower than expected, what with some members' school schedules. We'll be up 'n ready by the end of the month. Thanks for checking in, and agreed, very soon we will emboss the picture of Wisconsin rock.
Thanks for the kindness - we're actually looking for shows in Eastern WI for the weekend of Dec. 4/5. Would IQ's be a good place to look around for that? Otherwise Milwaukee would be our preference being closer to Chicago. Let us know!
Thanks for the awesome show! Rave reviews all the way around! Let us know when you can come back! We would love to see you again soon! ~Be Well & Much Love!
Hey Guys! Thanks! It took forever to put together, but we just picked up the printed copies today and they look AWESOME! they're on 12x18 glossy paper. We'll be in wausau tomorrow, so if you guys want us to drop some off by you, just let us know! Then you can hang em where ever you want.
Hey Octopus! Thanks for the Friending! We all really dug your stuff last night. We're "in" for arranging some shows in the future. Unfortunately we're not going to make it to the Octopus/Poney show tonight (just got back to Eau Claire a little bit ago), but we'll see you folks again soon enough. Later folks.
Thanks for being our friend. We hope that you will visit and listen
often. Please consider picking up our new CD "Candy Coated Chaos." We
hope to hear from you very soon and have an AMAZING day!!
