Hmmmm complimentary bikinis ...

Rizzo, will you be recording the show ? I'd love to hear it thu '80s metal has a special place in my heart, even though I'm a '70s rocker at heart (playing '50s rock'n'roll freak)

Bump for my friend and...

Sorry I can't be there - we're playing in Stamford.

Good luck with the gig in the big city!

I threw out my back. How a 24 year old throws out his back is beyond me. The show must go on...

We are not, unfortunately. I would love to, but I do not have any tools to accomodate this.

Thank you for the bump, mate. Be safe on those wild Stamford streets.

Very cool bass ! I really can't make a MusicMan work, never had one in my paws that "did it" for me. But you seem to make quite the pair grin

Setlist / review?

Back to "24" for me !

Rammstein ? Interesting to say the least grin Ever since the mid '90s I have been bugging my friends to go see Rammstein live. Not a fan of their music but they put on quite a show ! I'll finally get to see them live in December. About 10 - 12 years of waiting will hopefully pay off.

Are you quitting the band / are you disbanding ?

Yes, we are going to disband after this show; booking issues, lack of income, childish behavior, amongst other things are the driving factors.

I am currently working on an originals project with the guitarist (yellow shirt/skull cap) that is more in the Progressiver vein (ala Symphony X, Dream Theater) (www.myspace.com/collegepoint). He posted some of the softer demos up there, more to come as we hit the studio.
