WELCOME! TO RECEIVE UPDATES ON THE BAND AND SHOW DATES VIA EMAIL, PLEASE SIGN UP FOR OUR MAILING LIST. IT'S FAST, EASY, AND FUN...O.K...MAYBE NOT FUN, BUT IT'S FAST AND EASY. KIND OF LIKE OUR DRUMMER, JACK. From the ashes of Vancouver's Hog Fuel and Twelve Bolt, comes the hard rock meets alternative sound of Floorboard.
Band/artist history
Formed in the summer of '04. Jack "the hammer" Boyanton (drums) is one of those hated California transplants. Russ "the razor" Olmstead, the youngest of the trio, came out of the womb with a guitar in hand, but put it down almost immediately and didn't pick it back up until the day before yesterday, which makes him something of a phenom. Chris "Hairy" Mann grew up under the toxic cloud of the Camas Mill and while not quite brain-dead, he spends most practices --and the better part of most shows-- working on a ten year old crossword puzzle. As for the latest member, singer Jerry, we don't know anything about him. He just showed up one day and picked up a mic and won't go away. He has kicked all of our asses so we can't make him.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We have played Porky's Pub, Portsmouth, Ash Street, Sabala's, Arnada Cafe, Satyricon...
Your musical influences
Alternative Rock (Bad Brains, Queens of the Stone Age, Nirvana) Metal (Melvins, Black Sabbath,Iron Maiden) Classic Rock (Rush, Neil Young, Pink Floyd) 80's (the Cure, Duran Duran, the Police)
What equipment do you use?
Whatever isn't broken.
Anything else?
Jerry likes his women big. Chris fences every weekend with Bruce Dickinson. Russ is preparing a trumpet solo for our cover of "Eye of the Tiger." Jack has a personal collection of over three hundred cymbals.
