Out of 8,000 bands in a national competition to go on tour with Motley Crue, WATERSTREET made it to the final 6 to audition in front of the Crue at a sold out Whisky A Go Go show on Nov 10, 2008...along with The Key Club in L.A., Milwaukee Summerfest, Taste of Chicago, Summer Camp Music Festival, opening slots for Tantric, Blue Oyster Cult, Gin Blossoms and Gregg Rollie & the Santana Band.
WATERSTREET’s recent successes are the result of an original sound that rocks everything else on the scene. All young members were raised on the greats of rock and roll, and went on to attend the top music schools in the nation. With two front men lead guitarists, a driving rhythm section, and an arsenal of original music, WATERSTREET is the real deal at a live performance.
Originally formed by the two front-men lead guitarists, Evan Hand and Joe Shadid, WATERSTREET has evolved into a 4-piece rock band with bassist, Mike Crusen, and drummer, Rob Gould. Their popularity in the midwest is growing at a rapid rate. The years of writing music and playing gigs has set WATERSTREET apart from many other bands their age. WATERSTREET fans run the gamut, from expert musicians to the most novice music fan. The band’s youth is key in connecting with a teen audience, while their knowledge of music attracts an older crowd who is impressed with the group’s classic sound. No matter where they perform, a person will never see an unenthusiastic live show by WATERSTREET.
The band worked with Grammy-nominated producer Rick Barnes at Rax Trax studios in Chicago, IL and recorded their new release "Meant For Thrills." With lots of hard work and support from everyone, the album is now complete and was released on 12/01/07.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
