The Love Drags

About Me


The Love Drags exist in a world of their own... when bands wrote good songs & put on great shows. When things were more fun & way more simple. They live in the pages of "Women" & "On The Road". They live on T. Rex 45's & Southern Comfort. They behave like rock & roll stars because they feel they've already paid their dues. They're steeped in tradition & feel that they have no peers. They make their own way & their own rules.They're adorned in thrift store clothes & scars. They stumble through life with a drunken swagger as they glimpse out from the cigarette smoke. They''ll take your money or your souls, maybe even both. They're careless, reckless & loveless... they are The Love Drags.
