Vic Tims-Lead Vocals/Guitar: Born in the back seat of Greyhound X-Class Starcruiser Transit rollin' down highway 1,000,041 on the Andromeda Expressway, Tims was raised by his hippie parents following various bands like Xmorph, SsHdank BaaTru, and The Grateful Dead around the galactic concert circuit, picking up guitar along the way from greats like Zemorth137 of Xmorph, the incomperable SsHdank BaaTru (7 fingers on each hand, hardly fair to us normal humanoids), The Deads Jerry Garcia, Floyds Syd Barrett, and numerous other space truckers. Tims is ummm, vacationing on your planet while his lawyers settle a, shall we say, little discrepency with the Intergalactic Revenue Service. His main rig is an Epiphone Flamecat semi-hollow body guitar through a Laney Pro Tube 100 amp and Marshall 4 X 12, but uses alotta other stuff too.
Dan Wall-Lead Guitar/Vocals: Ohio born guitarist who started playing at age 19 when biggest influences included Keith Richards, Angus and Malcolm Young (AC/DC), and Ted Nugent. For many years Dan slugged it out in local bands in New York. After moving to AZ, in '96 Dan joined One Foot In The Grave (onefoot.com) "The Worlds Oldest Punk Rock Band"! Played bass in a classic rock band 24K, recording one CD entitled "Gold Rush". Played bass in metal band Redheaded Stepchylde, recording a self-titled debut CD while opening for bands like Kings X, UFO, Metalchurch and Drowning Pool. Dan's main guitar is a Gibson Les Paul Standard through a Line 6 100 watt head and Vox 4 X 12 cab, but he has several guitars.
D.Tease-Lead Bass: Conceived at Stanford University Medical Center, Forged in Detroit Rock City. Got first Bass (Wanted to be Gene). Started Kiss cover band (He was Gene). Sucked with Makeup (Not Gene enuff). 1980. Yes there really is a Kalamazoo. Tempered in Cramped Smoky Basements across the Midwest (please hit head here). Amazing shows with BlackFlag, Minutemen, Butthole Surfers. Got Bass outta closet. Basemental music for films. Fed with Raw Power, Strychnine, and Maximum Rock And Roll, Baked in the Desert, Ready to Explode. D. plays Washburn Bantam Basses (Steinberger L2 copy) and Ampeg! Ampeg! Ampeg! gear. Effects provided by the Acme Co.
T.I.T.S.-Lead Drums: The Incredible Terry Silveus! What’s with the name? Lovin the Ta-Tas? Clever Nickname? Both? Ask him and find out ladies! Born in 1970 thanks to a Black Sabbath concert and lots of substance abuse, Rock and Roll is in his blood. Major influences are 80’s Glam (Crue!), 70’s Metal and Punk (Stoner Rock Forever!). Bottom line he likes it fast and crunchy. TITS has lived and played in Chicago, LA ( Hollywood, Big Hair, Makeup, Unnatural Fabrics), Flagstaff and Phoenix. Now he is home on deRange with tHe ReLiCs. He plays a Tama Star Classic Birch kit and Zildjian Cymbals. (And a bad ass snare he stole from his High School Marching Band). He drinks too much. He wants to see you at a show and make you a fan. Rock On!!
Influences
Angst, boredom and garage rock. The raw power of the Stooges, the punishing roar of Motorhead, the heroin-fueled riffs of Johnny Thunders, the nihilistic fury of The Dead Boys, Pistols, Damned and Sham... oh yes kiddies, here we have all of your classic punk and pre-punk favorites and more, most not played live on any stage in 30 years, simply waiting to BLOW THE ACCUMULATED GREY MATTER RIGHT OUTA YER HEAD!!!! WE WERE THERE MUTHAFUKKA'S!!!
Just have to say I get a warm happy (for me) feeling when I see the bands we are sharing a stage with over the next few weeks, KiCk(fuckin)AsS. And the next time some hater whines about the FeniX scene.. just slap 'em. Yup, "Slap a Hater Today" is gonna be my new motto!
Debut CD "High and Lonesome" available (cheap). Six original ReLiCs tracks, fistfuls of maximum rocknroll and sum dirty WestSiide style. Catch a show and ask for yours! ThankX to Derrick at FC Digital Studio for gettin it done. Njoy!, tHe ReLiCs.

Ohhh don't call him a professor, he hates that. "I didn't go to school for 12 years to be called Mr. or Professor DAMNIT!" blah blah blah. all those genius types are all alike. Yes he will be there, just getting back from a psychology symposium in Prague in time for a little practice. He had published an article on pre-adolescent psychotherapy techniques using 12' x 18' pieces of colored cardboard with various images. Something about visual and aural stimuli verses tradition techniques. way over my head but he wanted to present his findings. He will be in attendance.
Very welcome and thank you for the add. And i will holler when i get to town. I be glad to get out of this fucked up weather up here. hope to be there soon. Stay Sick Heath (sick fuck)
