Seriously try to check out The F Bombers if you can. It's Clay (From Lower Class Brats) newest band. Female gravelly vocals streetpunk.http://www.myspace.com/thefbombers

And their van just blew up the other day, they had to cancel most of their current tour, and lost everything they owned. All equipment and everything. They basically lived out of the bus since they were on tour about 9 months out of the year :(

They saw smoke coming from under the hood, so they started to pull over to the side of the road, as they were pulling over it blew up. Thankfully everybody escaped mostly unharmed, which is obviously the most important part. Someone up there was looking out for em!
Not sure exactly what caused it, but it did originate from under the hood. They had their bass, and guitar beside them, so they grabbed those and bailed, but a cashbox, all their merch, their brand new 7" drums, cabs, heads, you name it all went up and everything literally looks like a giant ashtray was emptied.

We're really trying hard to get em back on the road asap. I suggested that they cancel the whole tour, but those guys are fucking troopers!, I cancelled the first 10 days, and they were positive that they could somehow borrow some equipment and and a car and make it to the remaining like 40 shows, not a smart idea, but if they aren't on the road they aren't happy.

Not trying to sound like a charity case or anything, but if anyone has thought about buying their new 7" now is a great time!, their full length is on I tunes as well. Great records. Their label is just donating every sale of their label debut 7 to them.

Anyway, they are great friends of mine, and super nice guys. Check out their myspace or something and if you like em, buy an album if you want.

They are 100% going to be at Fest, I think their label is flying em down, unless somehow they manage to get a van as quickly as they think they will....

Anyway... I am looking forward to Suicide Machines!, I saw them with Propagandhi many years ago. Great show, miss those guys

me and kelly had a quick sit down with the band list (so far) the other day, and of all the bands who had songs or links to songs up that were previously unknown to us, we got to about B and figured the following were pretty sweet and worth checking out:

1994!
Annabel
Big Kids.

gonna keep listening through 'em all, hopefully more profiles will get updated too.
