the best way to describe the band is by this e mail written by a dear close friend a few weeks after the band officially started:
Here i am, sitting alone, sipping at a strong whiskey with mint and honey, when suddenly i realize he's done it again! Patrick beers has dragged anothe poor soul into the gaping hell-mouth of his sick and depraved insanity. and its his girlfriend, no less! we're all going to hell on this one, friends. where were we, how did we not see the signs and stop this terible thing from coming to pass? i can see it now, one night, late ,and very soon, they'll be at a show, when suddenly someone will stand up and start screaming aweful murder about swamp leeches and lawn gnomes attacking their genitals. then the crowd will join in, fueled and enraged by the smell of weakness and blood. before the night is over they'll have beat the bastard to death and put his head on a stick for the enjoyment of the crowd. this normally would not be a bad thing, but they will expect you to take part in the ritualistic cannibalism that will follow. i suggest going for the throat. it is soft and the easiest part of the body to digest. drummers always die and guitarists choke on vomit! you have been warned!!!!!!

Actually, you have been misinformed. I was going to go to Florence, but that was before i got a place in gilbert. that's right, i'm officially on my own again (Or will be in two weeks, also if you count having a roommate as on my own.) Regardless, come one come all. we'll drink some beers. oh! and also get some drinks.
p.s. i have heard through the grapevine, that there is a very real possibility of zany hang out time with you crazy californians. when will you be down, and what kind of intoxicants can you smuggle in your orifices? watch out for the sword, often they're sharp on both edges!!!
I am sorry that we did not get to film and would like to reschedule. If you can call my office and speak to my secretary Ms Anderson, I would love to set up another date.
Also, let us talk Arizona. Ah... arizona. Home of the Cactus Wren. Beautiful state. Lets go there. Let us get that wheel moving.
Your welcome,..thanks for the high flying entertainment..I am going to check out the public access videos of yours.
Yeah, I hope you give it a whirl. That is great song and i'm know you can really add to what is already there with your flare that is just so rockin' ..I can't wait if you do..
