While the rest of all y'all are worrying about the price of gas, finals week, etc, the slackestra is taking it easy, diggin surf wax, cold brews, cold water, and hot sands. Don't knock it till you've tried it!

In an age of economic decline, international tension, disease, ethnic instability, and an overall lack of direction, the clarion call of the Slackestra ("Just Take it Easy") has never been more timely.
NO OTHER BAND has this motto. Every other myspace band out there is trying to get signed, sell you their record, be famous, and on and on...how tiring. Hell, even "Bob" Dobbs wants your money.
We say "Forget that Stuff." That ain't slack. We're self-funded and completely independent of The Man-- Now THAT'S Slack!

...........an tagen wie diesen, wenn der abend sich langsam und still über die frühsommerliche erde legt, höre ich den wind deinen namen flüstern, dann stehe ich ruhig da und blicke scheinbar weit, bis zum horizont, aber ich nehme ihn nicht wahr, denn alles was ich sehe ist dein bild in meinen augen, das einzige was ich dann spüre ist diese tiefe sehnsucht nach deiner nähe, die leidenschaft und die wärme die uns vereint und ich strecke im geiste meine hand aus, vorsichtig und voller liebe - ich weiss, am ende wird alles gut, denn das herz vergisst nie.................................................................... ....................................................................On days like these, when the evening lies, slow and still over the early summer earth, I hear your name, whispered on the wind. then i stand still and look out wide to the horizon but I don't believe it because all that I see is a picture of you in my eyes The only thing I feel is this deep longing to be near you, the passion and the warmth that binds us and I stretch my hand out, carefully and with love - I know that everything will turn out good in the end, because the heart never forgets ..
REMEMBER YOUR MOTHER on Sunday May 10, 2009. If you would like to do something nice for your mother this year, consider throwing her a party...and give her flowers, cake and presents. She is your one and only mother. Love her above all others.
