MICHAEL RUBIN - 2 dozen harmonicas, shout harmonies, sight reading. DO NOT call him Mike. his harmonica can cut you in half. he's an amazing teacher, the perfect straight man in the theatrical sense, and can do that stomache rolly bellydancer thing.

   About SICKS PACK
Sick's Pack is a group of several of my favorite Austin musicians. The majority of our music is original, in styles ranging from ragtime to blues to gypsy jazz to bluegrass to funk to metal to classical to punk to what ever. We are a predominantly accoustic band, and the live show is high energy speed country or dark limric driven dixieland. The great thing about this current line up of pickers is they can really set a mood, like they're method acting thru the songs to convey it's feel visually, tonally, and spiritually. And they're hilarious and strange. I couldn't do this without them." - Sick I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Would you be offended if Janet and I came to one of your Flip gigs, but just sat there and did homework? I mean, is that rude? Otherwise we stay home and do homework. Of course I have to ask myself, can I actually come to one of your shows and SIT and DO homework? And then the question would be, if I couldn't focus on my homework would you be offended if we left in the middle of it and went over to Billy's brew'n'que to do homework over some brews?!!

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

Promotional Video(My Girl From The South Sea Isles)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
