SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION ALERT: My Band, Roots of Creation, has just released our second full length album, titled "Rise Up!". It's awesome, obviously. It has special guests that some people here might actually know: Sam Kininger (Soulive), Gordon Stone (Phish, Moe., Strangefolk), and the horn sections from John Brown's Body/ Slightly Stoopid. SWEET!! I'll paste a good press release below, but for now you can check out the music at www.myspace.com/rootsofcreation www.rootsofcreation.com also exists, but is admiteddly less up to date... Northeast-based reggae rockers, ROOTS OF CREATION will be storming into town soon to lay down their scorching live set, and with a brand new album in tow. Titled Rise Up!, the album has been in the works since January of this year, and is ROCs second full length release. The album (recorded at Studio Metronome in Brookline, NH by Pete Peloquin, also known for his work with O.A.R, Govt Mule, Dropkick Murphys and more) features many songs that have been road tested up and down the east coast over the past year and a half, as well as a handful of brand new songs. The band will be showcasing a number of songs from Rise Up! throughout their live show, as well as other tunes written before and after the album. ROOTS OF CREATIONs sound incorporates elements of reggae, dub, dancehall, hip hop, and electronica, all set to a rock & roll backdrop. This translates wonderfully to a live setting, where the band is free to explore their compositions; sometimes finding themselves and their audience embarking on an improvisational journey to the upper atmosphere and back. Traits like this have the band finding acceptance in the reggae scene, as well as the jam band scene. At any given ROC show, youll find them stomping through fan favorites like Universal Soldier and the sing-a-long Rise Up, as well as creating crashing waves of space thunder with tunes like Proggae (Prog rock + reggae = Proggae!) and MooseDub. ROOTS OF CREATION have been described as, among other things, A Stegosaurus on Acid, Smooth as a Seamless Pair of Panties, and Like Bob Marley meets Black Sabbath. With descriptions like that, and an album featuring a multitude of special guests (Including Sam Kininger of Soulive, Gordon Stone, and the horn sections of John Browns Body and Slightly Stoopid), this is one show that is not to be missed!! Catch them on tour this fall in support of RISE UP!!

One college kid told us we sound "Like a stegasaurus on acid". Just this weekend another guy said that "he takes great pleasure in the low end". I'll let you guys take what you want from that one. (we play a lot of reggae, heavy on the bass) We get great, colorful comments like that all the time. We've started keeping a collection of them!

as long as this discussion is going on... I have an M100, chopped and in a nice case. I'm looking for a leslie. I have a 44w for a good price, will this work well with the m100? will it not be loud enough? i was figuring on adding a combo preamp into the mix as well
