Bandwidth Monsters Heroin Addicted Peaceniks Basically Lost in America. Watch us PLAY Naked as SEX machines with guitars!
The Bandwidth Monsters (BWM) were formed in 1991. BWM just got back from a tour of Mexico having played in numerous dive bars in Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Chiapas, Los Cabos, Guadalajara, and Mexico City from 1991-2002. We came back to Chicago from Mexico after our drummer Raul was offered a job on a popular Mexican soap opera (he's the good looking gay guy going after both Miriam and Carlos..figure it out). During our extended tour we played in Helsinki Finland also and were notorious there as an ABBA look alike band. We now play what comes naturally. Scott Fraser and Dave Daker are the primary song writers.

Story behind the song
I was reading about Robert E. Lee and his horse Traveler. I decided to write a song about the positive elements of Lee. My focus is having Lee look back upon what the South has become today. It is about Southern Pride that all Southerners feel regardless of color.
