What do they say about GANG?
"What'll you uncover if you dig a hole to China? GANG's "Rat Poison" has the answer. But you've gotta think in metaphors. And listen closely. And understand Italian. That's a lot of work, and every time I get close to the answer, I'm too busy dancing my ass off to care."
~~ City Paper (Philadelphia), 11/07
"The album packs enough energy to power the outfield lights of Citizen's Bank Park through the twilight hours of a fifteen-inning game."
~~ The Triange (Drexel University), 10/07
"Their tales of astronauts and bridges that went "blah blah blah" all sounded heavenly."
~~ Philadelphia Inquirer, 09/07
"Rat Poison should have been the theme to Rocky Balboa- 10 out of 10."
~~CD Times (UK), 04/07
"GANG is part science class, part art project, part dance party."
~~City Paper (Philadelphia), 03/07
"Between unpretentious production and sexy-silly bon mots, GANG deliver a hyper, horny dance floor summons you'll actually want to obey."
~~Philadelphia Weekly, 03/07
"Ok, it's simple. GANG's music, and "Past, Present, Future" in particular, is what Klaus Nomi would have sounded like if he was a 4 piece band, featuring 2 blonde haired girls, 1 brunette and a dude guy on drums."
~~Walrus Music Blog, 12/07
GANG /gang/ n. 1 a band of persons associating, esp. for criminal purposes. A band pursuing antisocial purposes. 2 set of workers, slaves, or prisoners. 3. A band interested in jams, fashion, and community. v. 1 to group, pack, mob. 2 join together, join forces, unite. 3 conspire or plot against, unite or unify against, join forces against.......
Band members Jaclyn McGraw and Amanda Damron decided to form a musical collaboration when they realized that they sounded like no other. Their blend of hip hop, rock and roll, craziness, wild attitude and bangin style come together in ways that make people stare in confusion, smile, and then bust out laughing in a good-spirited nature.
"Most bands are gangs. Whether it's a metal group or pop rock, whatever, you get that gang mentality. But for those of us who went back further, gangs were the MOB. The gang was not what anybody aspired to." ~~Bob Dylan, Sept. '06

It's the very first episode of INTERGALACTIC and it's the first thing me and Morgan have ever acted in. It's a work in progress. I learn as I go. It's a great start though. We had a lot of fun and will be putting more stuff out soon. Maybe next time we'll have a script.
I fucking find it HILARIOUS!!!! I'm so proud of how bad it sucks. I hate introductions... I can't just start killing people. Maybe next time... maybe next time.
