   About The Nelsonics
You can't help but get moving when the Nelsonics take the stage. Their infectious sound combines influences ranging from 60s mod to surf rock into one soulful go-go groove. The Nelsonics formed in 2001, taking audiences by storm with their high-energy live show. The following summer, Tikitone Records released the band's "DEBUT LP", which received rave reviews for its blend of instrumental grooves, organ-based R&B, Latin rhythms, big beat hooks and reverb-drenched guitar. A 7" single in 2004 showed the Nelsonics in top form with 3 soulful blasts of irresistible rock: "Mission to Mod," "Go Go Motorscooter" and "Dousman Street." Now Available: the Nelsonics' second full-length release "RUINS OF ROME". Their latest effort features 8 vocal and 4 instrumental tracks for your dancing pleasure. The album offers a travelogue theme of exciting destinations around the world. Songs range from 60s soul to garage and pop. The guys switch off lead vocals and mix in instrumentals, making for a nice variety on this release. So, if you are looking for something fresh with a classic 1960s flair, check out the releases from the Nelsonics, fit for Vespa riders and go go dancers alike.

Florence, hey you updated your profile

sorry about that must have sent you the wrong link..
It's funny because I tried that one before, and it made me all mad because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like sw eepstakes and stuff instead of cash.

But anyways, the right site is

http://Nicola68628. blogspot. com

it's the one I am making $6 5 0 a week with putting in about 23 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm daydreaming.


once you sign in do the ones on the first page, they pay the most. I got paid like sevent five bucks today for about 20 minutes work:)
You'll see what I'm talking about when you get in there. Christina started taking them too and she's making $ 800 a we ek, it's making me so ma d because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's
making more than me.

hey me and Christine are getting ready to leave now, just give me a call or I'll catch you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your
membership.
