Our January 7th show at Kadan has been changed from a birthday party to a memorial benefit show. Riki who's birthday we were going to celebrate was shot and killed the other day in her home. We'd like to ask that you all come out to the show as that means more money for Riki's family to cover funeral costs.

We have just been added to the Avalon Tattoo 18th Anniversary Party at the Casbah. We've played it before and we're glad to be asked to come back and play again. Doors are open early so make sure you get there early as well. All the info is to the right.
May 31st, 2007 ..: DOWNLOADS :..
We have set up a "digital store" so you can buy our music online. Currently you can buy the 4 tracks on our myspace profile that are from the "Tales Of Rum And Whiskey" album as well as the entire first release we did. Remember the first album is with our old singer/guitarist Von Scott so it's a little different sound. The thing is it's no longer available in any other format but mp3. However, you can only get that as a full album and not individual tracks. It's cheaper that way for ya. Anyway, here is our online store or you can just go to our myspace profile to access it.
March 16th, 2007 ..: QUICK UPDATE :..
First off we added a show on the 26th of April at the Ken Club with our buddies The Love Me Nots. I also uploaded some new and old flyers from past shows. Lastly we sent in our application to play at the San Diego County Fair. We'll let you know if anything happens with that.
