Mail's Sick Bass (post by Mail and CR)


Just the other day Mail was suprised on his birthday with a sick tobbaco sunburst deluxe edition 5 string full size bass (woah.). It sounds much better than his old Squire. It seems Mail and CR both started out with Squires. Maybe when we get big we'll throw a few bucks in Fender's way. Well Daxters back from camping but C. Bonham isn't back from vacation yet. CR had a sleepover with Mail and now we are playing guitar hero.

My old bass only had 16 frets the new one has...24!! We also watched This Is Spinal Tap. Its a wicked funny movie about a band thats touring the U.S. to release their new album called smell the glove. CR also gave me the white album and if you don't know what the white album is then ask yourself who the BEATLES were! And if you don't know that you need to Get A Life. Rock the Casbah

Incredible Website

CR found an awesome merch website for band tees. It's amazing. It's called Retro Factory and we put the adress on the links. It has classic rock, punk, alternative, indie, popular, and rap music plus movies, tv and videogames merchandise! Only bad thing is it takes about 5-7 days to ship. Apparently it's a Yahoo! website. Don't waste time on amazon, go to Retro Factory. This band has to start competing in some battle of the Bands! It's not as easy to get gigs because we don't play stupid covers. Covers bands always get gigs because the hosts of the party want to be on the safe side. It's stupid but oh well. Mail's birthday is coming up soon so we are gonna take a trip to guitar center. Also guitar center is having a HUGE clearance sale on Labor Day. Be there.

What Does "Mind the Gap" Mean?


Mind the Gap is heard in many places. The most obvious is probably the british guy saying "mind the gap" over the loudspeakers while people step out of the London subway (or the "T") and onto the platform. Most people don't know that it's also a very pure buddhist (and sort of hippie) term reffering to a void in time. Then again it could just be some boy with a big black gap in his teeth telling somebody to just ignore it. We don't even know how many meanings there are out there and were in the band so if you know something please comment and tell us. Also, we don't know how but keep a lookout for a band called "Sinus Rythm". The drummer is C. Bonham's cousin.

China (post by CR)

I'm in China having fun. My family, our friends and I have been here for 2 weeks already so I'm really starting to miss the band and my guitar... The bands here aren't that great but there are supposedly a few good ones. Well at least I got to post. Tommorow I'm in Tibet so no more internet. I can't wait to get back and see how many cobwebs have built up in the band room since I was last there. C. Bonham and his family are gone until school starts again so I"ll be the one posting until everybody gets back.
