Ah Cheers....  6 hours hours of pain.  Tell you what, how about everyone in our band just carries all of their gear to the gig on their backs from where they live (would be exceptionally bad for the guys in Miami) so then we are at least even in energy tonight? ... all though I still think Cheers takes more out of you! LOL!  See you tonight!

We hate asking our friends for things, but in light of the recent opportunities we need you to do 1 small thing for us.

We need you and everyone you know to vote for us for the Hard Rock Ambassadors of rock Battle of the Bands. We were selected as one of the top 5 bands in the country after winning 2 local shows and having the video compared to the other winning bands from around the country. There is one vote per email address. Just go here:

It means the world to have friends like you!

just say there's going to be one more time in either the distant or not so distant future that the triad of musical greats will reunite... a lie will work just fine :)

I, like Marisa, miss your dumb music, too. But I don't miss all the dumb bars you used to play in because I still go to them and listen to other dumb music. Although I'd be remiss if I said I enjoy it as much as when they were your dumb gigs.

Johnny Mac: I assume you mean me when you say you want to sleep with their manager (albeit former).
But let me say this: If you ejaculate prematurely like the last time, I promise it will be the LAST time I give you the opportunity.

I really appreciate your support and helping spread the word - everyone is welcome to add me to their friends list - Hope you are doing well and you have a great week! :-)

Help support our troops by visiting the Military Troops Calendar Myspace page (on my top friends), or my Myspace page and click the Paypal button. Proceeds go to the Fisher House, Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund and allow us to send the calendars to the troops serving overseas free of charge to thank them for their service to our country. Our goal is to send 17,000 overseas by the end of this month. Thank you for your support!

I'm going to "your old stomping grounds" for sh*ts and giggles tomorrow night. The music will be loud. The air will be smokey. The wings will be delicious. The drinks will be cheap (thank God).

But it will not be the same.

EMO!

Miss you guys.
