Sounds Like "...The Coma Lilies managed to take the unfettered minds on epic instrumental journeys with a diverse cast of characters. Sometimes it was a scary journey—like that one night you got lost in Golden Gate Park and got chased by a crazy vampire lady. Other times it was a silly journey—like that time you were on Market Street and that homeless guy let you try out his spaceship bicycle. At their best, The Coma Lilies sound like Tool doing an interpretation of Prokofiev’s “Peter and the Wolf.” It’s pretty damn cool. Seriously." -SFWeekly.com

The Coma Lilies have been a band since 2002. The Coma Lilies are not the same band they were when they started. Chris Votek was the bass player before Brian replaced him in June of 2004. The band went on a two month national tour from March to May of 2006, they have toured California many times, and the pacific northwest. The Coma Lilies have two CD's available for purchase, their self titled album released in March of 2004, and their more recent EP, Memento Mori, released in March of 2006. Both are available on iTunes and cdbaby.com. The Coma Lilies live in Sonoma County, California. Someday that will change.

Legalize It!




Tom Ammaniano (state assemblyman from San Francisco) just introduced a
bill into the state assembly to tax and regulate marijuana as we do
alcohol -- i.e., it would be legalized, taxed, and regulated. Like
alcohol, sales would be limited to folks over 21, penalties would be in
place for dui, sale to minors, etc. in other words, it sounds like the
right approach. The bill's official number is AB390, and more info will probably be available soon at www. norml. org and www. mpp. org.




If you have a minute, call and/or email your state assembly person and
Senator to encourage them to support the bill. You can look up their
contact info online based on your zip code:
http://www. legislature. ca. gov/port-zipsearch. html.




Feel free to pass this along. The bill is fighting an uphill battle
against a vast legacy of misguided and uninformed policy, and it will
only have a chance of passing if people speak up in favor.




This bill will provide California with one billion dollars of revenue each year (each ounce is taxed $50)




Do your part to help LEGALIZE IT!
