About The Deserters

"They’re a crazy, creative, combustible mix, these Deserters … and you can’t take your eyes off them. When plugged in, they simply demand your attention. And you don’t have to be another musician to share in the idea that this band matters. Nah, it’s obvious. It has 'it'. Talent. An idiosyncratic look. And a glorious sound that’s its alone." --Sauce Magazine. "Made up of members of such local bands as the Commons and Fred's Variety Group, the Deserters have quite the rock & roll pedigree." --Riverfront Times. "[The Deserters are] an amalgamation of six local musicians, five of them songwriters. The group emphasizes a rough-hewn, peculiar strain of rock 'n' roll, with influences stretching all over the map — and, for that matter, dating back a couple decades. On a given night, the band may find a strange, elusive groove that makes you wonder how far it can take it." --St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

anna	Jul 2 2008 6:35 PM a shout out to nathan~ I shout out proud loud momma don’t cry now- you’re boys gone and we couldn’t tell where he came from. he tried a gun he tried a noose he tried to sum it up -he was telling the truth – just inches just minutes away from your watchful eye – did you flinch for a minute when he started to die he snuck to the shed poured gasoline on his head ripped a lighter from his pocket to ignite the tropic sockets electric and chard – he caught fire like a choir with a spirit that no flame could resist but he never planned to let you get near it. Baby blue up in flames there was no shame. there was no game he was always the same- the world and it’s ways were not meant for a magnet of suffer or faggot on top of a superconductor Trying to prove that reality exists was a jagged and fagile and random risk Maybe he knew more than we could grasp maybe he new his mind wouldn’t last His body burnt candle at both ends right in your face – Case study learnt to handle the oath spent life in four places . mind a disease that can’t tell what it chases when identity loops people’s faces fists loosing fingers till you your burnt baby’s waist was a hollowed out log from a campfire song inspired the trees to catch fire anchors – you see smell your son for many years later the leaves on the trees lit up background as traitors. how that all happened only you know .. I want to ask what it was like to see him go but I think that’s something you’d rather I die never having to try to justify in my mind.

Zed Naught	Apr 30 2008 8:45 PM This weekend marks the 112th anniversary of The Haymarket Affair! On May 3rd, 1886, police in Chicago killed a number of striking workers, On May 4th, the workers organized in a peaceful gathering. Once again, the police disrupted the gathering, this time the workers fought back. After the streets were cleared, a number of workers and police lay dead, and many more injured. 8 men were arrested and charged with inciting a riot and the throwing of a bomb. Despite the overwhelming evidence that these men were innocent, they were sentenced to imprisonment and even death, to be carried out by the state, simply for being anarchists. This Saturday, May 3rd, we recall this event and celebrate the struggle of the working class @ Picasso's Coffee House, 101 N Main St. Saint Charles, MO 63301 12:00 noon, with a parade for workers solidarity and a day of music by The Tillers, www. myspace. com/thetillersthree Ian Fischer, http://www. myspace. com/ianfishermusic Ryan Spearman, www. myspace. com/tatercooks and the introduction of Holy!Holy!Holy! admission is 2 used books you enjoyed everyone leaves with a book they didn't bring and the remaining books go to Books2Prisoners. Also, sticks&stones books, an anarchist book source will be opening to the public for the first time! Finally a truly leftist books source in Saint Charles!

St.Luniverse video	Apr 27 2008 8:46 PM REPOST THIS!!! help keep original music wedsndays going!! charlack pub needs at least 2 more bands for this wednsday april 30th,or he will have to cancel the show...this will be his second in a row that he has to cancel & if this happens,then original music wednsdays are over if youre a local music fan these are free shows that you can come to every other wednsday & see 3 or 4 bands for free so theres no reason not to get out & see some live music if youre a band,then this is a win win for you because you get a PAYING gig in the middle of the week where there isnt alot of other competing shows,at a new place youve probably never played before so you have the potential to make new fans,this venue /promoter buys local bands cds,tells the crowd to buy them as well & they play them over the speaker system in the bar for the regular patrons & this bar may be small but it does get packed up with probably a hundred people & on a wednsday night thats a hell of a crowd also for playing the charlack pub you get special deals on videos...you can either get one or two songs free(they pay me so you dont have to)or you can get a half hour set for only $10 & they will use your video to promote you so you get free promotion as well you cant beat it!!! help the stl music scene by helping those that are busting their ass to help you!!! get ahold of jason at myspace. com/liveatthecharlackpub
