BIO:


Brought together by our love for Father Ted and various other things in the good year of 2004 all aged 13 we have been playin as our current line up for around 18months. After some trouble at the start of our attempt to unsuccesfully change rock n roll we have now managed to record some tracks and have begun to play some shows in aberdeen,most recently playing at Kef.

Influenced by a mix of the ramones,nirvana and random funk stuff Our music is based on guitar driven old skool punk riffs with puchy bass, the odd funky bass solo and errr drums... Lyrically we make up stuff as we go along(even live) and we probaly should make an attempt at learning the words but wheres the fun in that?????

Christian:(drums)
Genrally a complete tool who has an interesting/strange of humour,a drum kit,too many stick and a new joke to tell every day. He was one of our 2 origional members from the days when we were lucky if we even had a bassist but luckily has somehow stayed in the band dispite the constant evils of no organisation. Christian is now last in rehersal room olympics after failing to clear a mic stand at 1.5 m onto a couch. But despite losing he always takes part in the new sports he invents such as mic stand pole vault,high jump,hurdles and leap of drums.

Chris:(bass/vocals)
Also known as Big bird since christian decided he looked like the sesame street bird(which is true) chris has, in the space of 18 months bought,2 basses and about 37 and a half bass fx pedals and due to this you can see he is very enthusastic! sometimes too enthusiatic. Ussualy comes up with 7 riffs a day and writes loads of songs but never brings his notepad to rehersals. He is the peacekeeper of the crue and dosn't think many things are 'good ideas' i.e 'rehersal room olympics'!!

Ross:(guitar/vocals/ginger)
Has a guitar(3 infact apparently) a big new shiny amp and has written along with chris most of the songs we play. Ussualy gets chris aggrovated when he comes up with new 'ideas' along with chrstian to make rehersals more fun! such things as.....triple bass pedaling,couch diving,cymbal headsmacking,flaming cymbals,'lets play louder than the dudes next door' and mic lead skipping!!
