Here in The Pacific’s rehearsal room they believe in ghosts.
Heroes hang from the walls, Lennon, the Gallaghers, Ashcroft, Ian Curtis, Harrison, and Townshend keep watchful eyes. The voices of all who passed through Marley’s gate reverberate through the night colored with cigarettes, pints and shiny tequila guns….and they leave writings on the wall. Faces immortalized in still frames, in times through the times. There have been a thousand nights past here of tales grown so tall…and a hundred thousand more ready to be born into a time capsule that puts the sign posts down for the next generation to see the path.
Downtown Los Angeles, amongst a maze of white and grey and anonymous rooms with brown doors behind which The Pacific have toiled the songs, spoiled the wrongs and created a place where everyone belongs, if even for just a night.
Inspired by the classics….
Kinks, Who, La’s, Stone Roses, Oasis, Marley
Aspiring with the moderns….
The Coral, Glasvegas, Sergeant, The View
Retiring the has-beens…it’s time to get it made.
With a new release in hand, “Smoke & Mirrors,” (Intravenous Records 2008) recorded by Mark Rains and Roger Gisborne, The Pacific are set to embark on the twisted road with regional West Coast tour dates in the Fall and Winter of 2008….and a 2009 US Tour with featured dates at the 2009 SXSW music festival. The Pacific is also planning a summer 2009 UK tour.

I will take this time then to say THANK YOU! 4 years ago I caught The Pacific's set at Zen Sushi. After that set I became friends with four (plus some) great individuals. Thank you Pacific for the help, guidance and most of all for the friendship that you have provided. I sincerely feel sad to know that there will not be another Pacific show. I'm happy that I was at one of you final shows, it was a fun, memorable night. The friendship with each and everyone of you will continue beyond the end of The Pacific, as we all know. Mike, Curt, Sam as long as I can afford it one round of Stellas and New Castles are on me the way it's always has been. I've always enjoy the company of good people and you guys are definitely good people.
Whatever direction each of you decides to take take it knowing that you have my full encouragement and that I will be willing to help in anyway possible that I can.
