Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
we all met in flagstaff and started playing on july 29th, 2004... under a blue moon. for 2 weeks double rainbows could be seen over our rehearsal space. we started playing out at that point as "2 Hours of Bliss" but have just recently changed back to Blame Jesus... we have self released 4 cds of our music, 3 live recordings and one studio improv and should soon be releasing our first 2 disc set as Blame Jesus, featuring live and studio recordings... please check our website for more info
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
our cradle, flagstaff, AZ @ various venues... sedona, AZ about once a month @ random acts of coffee. we love playing live! special moments? most recently, our guitarist went outside and passed out in a tree for our entire third set.
