They are currently playing music from this CD, some ska covers, and new music recently written at venues all around Colorado.

5.0 out of 5 stars Respect The Desires of Your Youth, August 15, 2005
By Evan Hale (Up in the hills of Colorado) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This band rocks not only are they from Colorado but they play ska. Not an easy genre to play. I respect this band for what it is they do. If you think you can do better let me here it and if I like it I might not tell you to shut the hell up...

1.0 out of 5 stars Just a quick thought, May 18, 2004
By Kati keadle (Boulder, CO) - See all my reviews
I like all kinds of music. This was one of the first things I didn't like, at all. I am in a band that just started, and we're not very well known. But I would rather be in this band and not be known and still be able to play quality music instead of playing music that really should be redone. The effort is shown guys, but it seems like if you're looking to get a record deal, you should probably try not to drown in a puddle of punk/ska that can be mistaken for any garage band acrossed america.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rock star Review, March 22, 2004
By Renee Lowe "figismom" (Sanfrancisco,Ca.USA) - See all my reviews
Man I'm usally pretty open with music and I'm a big rock star in Metallica. I Orderd this CD and it sucked Balls. The Singer sounds like he his singing with a plugged up nose. This site should have lost its popularity after it being sold on here. Man this CD needs to be slated and the band needs to go to an end.
Well my best advice to the band stop!
