   About the king hen
I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 erik met garrett but neither of them played anything. erik met dave thru garrett and by that time garrett had started to play. erik started to play a little later. Seeing how erik dave and garrett hardly like the same kind of music they thought it best to start playing together and form a band. nobody wanted to sing so erik did. tim came along during all this and played too. dave left for a bit and tim took over the throne, and all though he was nowhere near as good as dave. tim, garrett and erik kept on. something happened when dave left and erik, garrett, and tim got knocked up and out popped the king hen. later dave wanted to come back after he heard the new mating calls of the king hen and we let him because well, he’s pretty damn good. we played and played and went mobile for the first time and then tim left because his girlfriend made him. then garrett left because he was tired or his fingers hurt who knows. then it was only erik and dave. erik and dave dated with other people trying to find a match and found aaron. aaron wasn’t what they were initially looking for but aaron seemed nice and was into it. garret came back a little later and we made him pay us to join up again. I bought a new camera then. There are four of us. We are legal to drink bourbon. We are from Portland, Oregon. Drums, bass, guitars, vocals, that’s what we do. We are all over the place like prepubescent junior high kids trying to get laid. We hardly ever agree on anything, it’s amazing we get anything done at all. We will entertain you like your favorite pasta dish. Day jobs are dumb, help us quit ours.

wow, a band that has and fugazi, and sonic youth, and the jesus lizard, and mclusky as influences... that just has to be good!

'too far to tell, too far to return' is probably one of my favourite songs for the moment.
