The Boodogs disbanded back in 2002, but enjoy getting together occasionally to rock your fucking socks off!
Here's a rundown of who they are:
Yeah, well Andy decides about 1996 that he wants to front the Loudest Most Obnoxious band in the whole freakin' world. First he found Philip at the local college where Phil was busy flunking out of everything. Then he answered a flyer that Richard put up at the college, advertising his services as a guitar player wishing to go deaf playing loud rock 'n' roll. The first bass player disappeared and is probably a druid by now, so Andy recruited Booty, also a college student who, strangely enough, wasn't flunking classes. This is all between the whoring and booze and drug binges of course.......
The band was first called Toddler's Experiment. Screw that crap, the whole band ambushed Andy. Then we were Smack Dab for a while, until it was discovered that there's about 47 other bands with the same name. Richard noticed in a newspaper article that there is a Turkish delicacy called boodog, which is basically the guts of a goat or sheep stuffed into intestine and cooked with a blowtorch. Hence, The Boodogs. It was either that or Heinous Spleen (that's since been done by some guys in Minneapolis).
Andy is the energy, Richard is the temper, Booty gets things done, and Philip controls all vices for the band. As the rest of the band shed their vices, Philip was there to take up the reins. Mighty nice of him, wouldn't you say? Most of the songs on the first CD were written by some combination of Andy and Richard. If anything, Andy is a worrywart, Richard is nuts and should never be near a bottle of alcohol, Booty is rather quiet, and Philip's mood changes depending on whatever he has ingested prior to the gig.
