The Damned Thing

About Me



The Damned Thing is from the town of Silo right on the Florida-Texas border. They currently reside in Volusia County, FL. They play hard-ass-country-western-swamp-punk-rockabilly. They drink more than is good for them. They are sloppy and disheveled and usually have spit running down their chins. They are admired by men and coveted by women. They consume more corn liquor than any other band known to man.
