Band/artist history
band History.. Our first practice ever was march 28th 2003. We played liz's end of school party on may 29th I belive. We played horribly there. Recorded a Cd in july. Then on november 7th we auditioned for the talent show, that was a disaster. Nov 8th 2003 WE played liz's 16th b day party. That was hella good. coffe house December 16th 2003...... quaff was good hahaha. JANUARY 16th 2004!!!!! ABBA JAVA HOUSE !!!!! AT the time it seemed great but compared to how we are now it was no big deal, and the band played oh so very well, hahaha Kudos to Dan for his drum solo! ...... Since then, We played Shelbys party on February 27th, That was okay i suppose, no1 really payed much attention to us except for hey ya, and maybe death, but thats okay cuz we got paid quite well for it, thanks shelby! SO then we packed up and left her party at 1130-midnight and headed over to the high school and played at the dance marthon from 1-2 all though the sound check took 20 minutes so really we only had 40 minutes or so. BUT WOW THAT WAS SUCH AN INCREDIBLE SHOW, The band played AMAZINGLY, The crowd was JUST UNBELIEVEABLE, the stage was fine, the sound guy was good, It was a GREAT GREAT SHOW im sure none of us will ever forget it. Rocktober fest 2004, Not to cool. The the monitors were really way off on sound but through the mains we didn't sound as bad. All summed up, it wasn't as bad as it could have been, but it could have been much better. Eric birthday party, prettty rockin time. jordan remebered the words to hotel, it wasn't too bad I'd say. The crowd coulda been a bit more enthusiasctic but you can't always get what you want. all night basket ball . A disaster. for a while there were 6 band members and 5 people watching, but then on the last song a bunch of people and it was one hell of a great time and one hell of a good show. It might have been the funnest show we've played yet cuz it was so easy going. But wow, once the people came it got SOOOOOO fun thanks to all who showed up for that you really made it fun! ROCKFEST 04. NEW YEARS EVE BATTLE OF THE BANDS WAS FREAKIN FUN. COULDN"T BELIVE WE WON. Still Can't belive we won. Freakin sweet show, beautiful day. Dance marathon 05. Again freakin fun. Awesome crowd even at 330 in the morning or when ever we played. JOrdan remembered the words to hotel california, even if had forgotten them, the crowd was singing along the whole time. One of the top 3 crowds that we've ever had with out a doubt. Grier International School For Girls April 2, 2005 Crowd was innnnnnnnnsane honestly it was the time of our lives to play for a crowd like that. Thanks to Grenada for making the trip out there with us and sharing the night. Thanks to Grier for having us and thanks to the crazy unforgetable crowd. Abba Java House May 6th 05'. Pretty Decent good turn out, people really liked Scotty doesn't know I'd say all in all it was good, just technical problems but hoffs did a good job on sound again! Battle of the bands 05 Fun time! We god third pandemic was 2nd and lemonsoul obviously was 1st. third is definetly a success in my book because almost everyband there was great. Definetly an honor to get third place out of so many good bands. Idiosyncracy: Just a reminder of why we love to be in a band. Great time except for broken strings and tuning issues but thats our fault and I don't think a whole lot of people noticed at the time. But fun crowd beautiful weather, over all it was pretty good, definetly a fun time!

Your musical influences
We started out as a 'ska' band but we really just play what ever we want because theres 6 different people in the band and we don't like the same stuff so our sound is a combination of musical styles. I'd say it ranges from Jordans reggae influence to taylors zepplin influence with ska and grateful dead and lots of others mixed in. No country though.
What equipment do you use?
Heres a list of what we are all in the band to play, because if you came to one of our shows you might not know who is supposed to play what. Lee-Guitar Zach-Saxophone Will-Bass Dan-Drums Taylor-Trumpet Jordan-Keyboard
Anything else?
Nope
