That's great news about the new CD. I have both of your previous CD's and they are really excellent. No one can double pick like you guys.

I seem to recall reading that there was a personnel change at some point. Will the new CD have the same style as the first two or have a new tangent?

Good luck.

Thanks Paul! Glad you like the first two.
Joe's been with us for about 3 or 4 years now.
It'll be similar, but more high-energy and edgier. It sounds more like what we actually sound like live. Joe also has a slightly edgier sound than George did, which I think is cool!
Every thing is done and recorded, we're just waiting on artwork, mastering etc...

Thanks for the notice. IOTA is a great place to see bands. I saw Los Straitjackets play there a couple of years back. If I'm in town that weekend (or not bombarded with work like every weekend this summer), I will definitely try to attend.

I am going to make every effort to be there.

I was just at Iota a few weeks ago to watch some friends of mine play, great venue..... AND they have Yuengling on tap. What more could you ask for?
