Worse music for worse people

About Me

There's this guy Mark. He plays guitar and writes the songs. He once broke his own hip so that he could wiggle and sway like most people can not. Cigar-Box Guitars Rule the day!
There's this other guy Cris. He plays drums and makes crazy faces while doing so. Unfortunately, this only serves to further the perception that he is from another country. Fear not, Homeland Security is keeping a close eye on him. He's been seen keeping company the likes of The Seven Shot Screamers and The Diner Divas, the rockin robins and the new sinners.. he's something, way to good for the vickroids, but he's here for now...
Shit, we can't forget Ryan. He's kinda new. He's also kinda... not always in the band? Harmonica, that's his instrument of choice for the Vickroids. He's a busy guy with the Vultures and several other projects, so he ain't always there when we play out (OK, he's rarely available). But if you catch a set with him on harp, you're getting the full Vickroids experience. So come to every show, you'll see him eventually...
