The Best Band Ever. Really. That's the only way to describe it.
From the dark depths of Vermont come The Devil Makes Three. Orphan siblings from Manitoba, Cooper, Lucia and Pete were taken in by a family of marmot farmers in Southern VT. Weary of the marmot farming life, the tight knit trio began singing songs of life in the old country, and eventually ran away to join a travelling medicine show. The group honed their technical skills for eight years, until in 2002 decided to quit the travelling show and strike out on their own. They rose to fame rapidly in Scandinavia where they were treated as gods, but their longing for chicken noodle soup and fine lederhosen soon brought them to California where they have lived in a cave for the past three years.
Unfortunately I won't be able to see you guys in Boston tonight,but I am sending down representatives in my absence.I saw you last time and you kicked my ass.Till next time.
Wish you guys were gonna make it out to AZ this go around, but that's okay...catch you the next time. Your music fills my soul with sunshine and rainbows and dolphins and orgasms...all that good stuff! Take care on tour and find some fun in between.
Ive seen you a few times live now...one time traveled from Portland Oregon (where we live) to Truckee California to see you play. Was VERY sad that I had to miss your last Portland Show on Oct 23rd. Im sure it was a good one and had I not had surgery that day it would have been my 11 year old daughters first concert. We all LOVE you! Hope to see you back in Portland soon!
I have been trying to see you guys in Humboldt for two and a half fucking years! Who knew my chance would come in Bozeman, Montucky (which was fabulous, I had such a great time). I'm gonna try and make all the shows up here, come play closer to Shelby or Great Falls and I'll get most of my prison to come see you!
THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH for adding the GR show!! While you are going up against Bassnectar tomorrow night, I know you will have a wonderful turn-out as I have very quickly tried spreading the word!! I was begging you guys to come out here and LOOKIEEEEE yahoooooooo!!! See you tomorrow night!!!
you guys were amazing at the filling station in bozeman!!!! my friend and i almost lost our jobs to get down there to see ya! we have waited almost three years to see you!! thanks for the great show!! loves
the show was great. sorry the crown got so rowdy. I got hit a few times in the face. I promise not all of Portland are such jackasses. Again you guys were fantastic.!
So very very excited to see you guys perform this Friday. I am bringing a posse with me as to make sure that the debauchery will reign supreme. Ah, the anticipation!!!
