Expect to hear fun party rock!! We love all the best rock & hits from delicious 80's cheese to today's good stuff!! Bon Jovi's Who Says You Can't Go Home to Motley Crue's Home Sweet Home, I Want You To Want Me to Mr. Brightside, American Idiot to Don't Stop Believing; Buttercup? Yesh! Come On Eileen? If you insist! We're all over the place, and just want do another shot with the crowd...
Our fun-luvin' band was conceived by James Quigley(keyboards/vox) to be the House Band for Peggy O'Neill's at Keyspan Park in Coney Island.
He recruited his friends and Peggys regulars Sean on guitar and vocals, Janice on lead vocals, and Brian on drums. Bass is aptly being handled by sound man Fred till furthur notice!
The catch: All members must love playing live music and be rather thirsty...The bastard!!
So we threw together a few practices and
wha-La! We were born.
We play a wide variety of rock & party songs everyone luvs(unless you're an unlikeable slug).
If it makes you wanna sing, dance, or exclaim,
"Randy Pants!!", we wanna play it!
After about 2 1/2 years Janice became a mommy and decided to focus on her beautiful bundle o' joy; We wish her well!!
-So we searched high and low and now feature the vocal prowess of Adriana!!
You may remember her from Strange Daze and Firing Blind!
We have been met with enthusiasm from friends old and new and look forward to many more late evenings with you!(That wasn't supposed to rhyme)
