   About The Whomping Willows (SUMMER TOUR 6/30 to 8/31!!)
"you've got a new fan in my 2 year old Jake. He's currently tearing around the living room laughing his head off yelling "guitar rock!". I paused the CD to answer the phone and he shot me one of the dirtiest looks I've ever seen and screeched until I put it back on." -Russ

Corporate record labels and promotion companies are LAME! If you work for one of these establishments, please do not contact me and offer me your services. I'm not interested! : D
