ON HIATUS

The Band

Episode 55 was set up originally as a jamming band, between close friends. However in light of James and Sam original bands lack of motavation, and Matts obvious talent as a bassist they decided to form.

Members

Sam Boagey

(hey don't laugh) (guitarist, lyrics,vocals)

Sam plays the guitar, and is hyper original, his songs usually have 4 or 5 meanings behind them, the most obvious of them, sex. But very rarley will a song fully imply or use sex references.
:
note from me--songs normally have lodsa meaning as sed, depends how ur mind works (bar farmyard bill , thats just the same to evry one) but also a meaning for me. not all songs bout sex completly, lotsa refrences to stuff tho ;) when we get sum songs on here il put the lyrics up aswell so u can decide what there about! also, the songs mood and meaning ties in with the music so its not just random stuff that fits its all got meaning,And i was dead for like 10mins wen i was born so that shud explane most things.

Matt Richardson

(Vocals, Bass, Keyboard, lyrics, Guitar)

learnt how to play on sam's guitar for a month before he got his own bass, but a kickass bassist when you think he's only had his bass since crimbo time. Matt uses the well known phrase kiss- keep it simple stupid- but has unlimited creativity so is infact higly skilled. Matt is influenced by the bass players Mike Dirnt and Mark Hoppus. matt is like the mother figure of the band as he is most in controll!!! mainly cos james and sam are out controll most of the time, he can get away with anything!!!

James Canty or 'Gandalf' to sam when he's playing

(Drums)

vowed never to play drums for ages then decided to play on his brothers kit continuously for a month and its now been sold for his own kit (thats the way he works). he can just come up with cool drum bits on the spot and can out drum sam and matt with one hand :(. has way to much hair for a 15 year old, and also to much wrong with his body to be alive!! can make anyone crack up with laughter by saying anything.is just plain lazy exept when drumming.
