(the last song ever performed by Scouts Honor)
SCOUTS HONOR was a three-piece rock'n'roll explosion born out of Peoria, IL and later based out of Chicago. The band was made up of Jared Grabb on vocals and guitar, David Dobbs on drums, and Ernesto Castillo on bass and backing vocals at their time of breakup. They played bastardized heavy blues that earned them comparisons to The Melvins, Against Me!, Unsane, and Danzig, to name a few. SCOUTS HONOR shared the stage with such great performers as Hot Water Music, Dead To Me, Against All Authority, Glass And Ashes, Leftover Crack, Planes Mistaken For Stars, Minus The Bear, The Velvet Teen, These Arms Are Snakes, Spitalfield, Aloha, and Denison Witmer. In their 5 years as a band, they played 441 shows , including a tour in Germany and appearances at SXSW, CMJ, NXNE, Riot Fest, Valley Of The Vapors, and Gainesville Fest. They released 2 full-length albums, 3 7" records, and a split EP. THE BAND PLANS TO RELEASE A 3RD AND FINAL ALBUM IN LATE 2009.
