Usually: Bob New: pedal steel, occasional banjo, surprise vocals and between-song banter.
Rarely: Brian Rutledge: trumpet and melodica; Matt Hutton: electric guitar; Peet Painful: electric guitar, electric razor and an endless array of sonic toys.
Influences
Unfortunate circumstances and missed opportunities. Long bicycle rides and big meals. Endless, pointless conversations. The music my friends make.
Thanks for finding some room in your heart for a yodeling banjo player. Yours Cordially, Curtis P. Eller =========== "Wirewalkers & Assassins" the new CD by Curtis Eller's American Circus Order it online here: Curtis Eller's American Circus www. curtiseller. com

You guys, I've been told I need to do a better job of promotimg my band, so I'm trying my hand at ye olde myspace spamming... Have you ever been friends with a myspace spammer? Have you ever woken up next to a myspace spammer? I figure in the future we'll all probably be robots anyway, so I'm cool with it...

Milo Jones - http://www.myspace.com/mistermilojones Indescribably amazing.
The Honored Guests - http://www.myspace.com/thehonoredguests This will be one of MAYBE two times a year you'll get to see these guys around these parts. They're from Chapel Hill, NC and can't be missed.
This is also our last show for a while until we actually, no really... finish our next album (songs from which will be played on Thursday).
Thanks for making room for some washboard-fueled vaudevillian ragtime/jugband blues and hillbilly swing madness in your space!

Hello Sam, What a nice, laid back feel your music has. Now I just wanna go lay in the hammock and sip a martini for the rest of the day. Thanks for finding us! Billy Carl & Ruby
