Did I mention we’re looking for a bass player?


01 Aug

Wait for it…

We’re recording a complete CD, 12 to 15 songs. And wouldn’t you know it? We are looking for another bass player. We’re like spinal tap… only… not. The same only different. So the search is on! Again! Help us help you to help us.
SEXUAL CHOCOLATE!

April 30

For those of you planning on checking us out at Rockit Room… STOP! Show has been canceled. Apparently the owner knew the women Jimmy killed, and the fact that Confusion Said wrote a song detailing the act only infuriated him.
But, May 1st is still on for Sacramento.

No More Java Cafe

So they heard Confusion Said was coming and flew into a state of panic!
Not really sure what happened there, but not a problem. Confusion Said, “Go up the road to Placerville. There you will find the Cosmic Cafe, and on Friday February 19th, there you will play.”

In Mourning

She cheered proudly with a smile, “Pants on the ground! Pants on the ground! Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground!” Steve stood with clinched fists and a grind to his teeth as a deep, sleeping rage had overcome him, flooding his brain with violent tendencies. A rage that had not seen [...]

Pete is Okay

So a couple of weeks ago Pete tried the “Live Wire” trick and caught fire. Apparently he was standing too close to the generator and sparked his hand ablaze. Don’t worry though. Pete is a trooper. Like Steve said, “Just rub some dirt on it, you’ll be okay.”
Up Next- December 13th at The Necropolis in [...]
