Funderstorm is the first band to ride AND play a full show on a L.A. bicycle ride. We are known for hosting underground ride-shows in secret places, and playing shows throughout the scene that birthed us, the Midnight Ridazz/CRANK Mob Night-time Bicycle Party-Ride Scene. Our shows are known for having unquantifiable energy released over the top of a sonic attack from a fiery assortment of dance punches and crowd-involvement. The energy forms an atmosphere of potluck fun, where one can shoot fireworks and it wouldnt be unexpected. Last weekend a couple was having sex during the show and nobody noticed! Its on tape! :)
In Summer 2008, we were the first bicycle band to tour West Coast to East Coast- Venice, CA to NYC. The tour was self-supported (no car/auto followed) and totalled 5,200 over 3 months, and played a total of 21 shows of all sorts. We had so many amazing friends help us, we can't say enough about the L.A. friends and new friends we have/made. Thanks again!
We'll try to keep this page updated, but we're also on Facebook!

k, hostel and nathan are down. just need a date in october. a friday or saturday. lemme know what day/date works for you and it's on. lookin' forward to your arrival in new jersey/york.
Brad, you didn't tell me you knew Nathan Whipple! We're old pals, like since I was ten, and have been hangin in NY since he moved up. He said he's workin on getting shows for you in the eastern cities. The hostel is down to host one here in brooklyn. Wanna do that, with one of Nathan's acts?
I'm gonna start talking to people about show spaces for y'all in NY, brooklyn especially. The loftstel has a spacious backyard, and we could get lets of people here--international style. I'll try to set that up too. I'll be in touch with dates and places and you can let me know if you want to do it.
I miss you guys so much my throat tenses and my eyelids blush.
I read your blog today, though, and am glad you have time to share a little. Every little word conveys hope. Keep writing, and I'll figure out how to join you at some point, along the way!
MUCH LOVE, Michele
btw, b-rad, doing a Midnight Ridazz ride in Boise next week!
