Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We are the members from Institutionalized plus two members. We decided to leave the old name behind and start fresh with our new members and songs. The name sucks anyway. We recorded our first song in May 2002 and we're still going. Since then we've had 2 different bass players and overcome our differences and grown to love one another for our unique gifts. Everyone except Jay that is. He sucks.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We record all our songs live, and occasionally play at school functions (talent shows). In May 2003 we played the Red Lion as part of Homegrown Music Fest. It was full of crazy drunks. It was pretty damn cool.
