THE JABS

WE BROKE UP 9/24/05!!! We don't do shows anymore!

About Me

We've been together for a little over 2 1/2 years now. Based in Indianapolis, we're spreading the rock gospel all over the country. Armed with nothing more than a van, our equipment and the ability to rock yer balls off, we're comin' to take over what hasn't been rocked yet........We also hate cheesy bios.....Be sure to rate the songs after you take a listen. We need positive reinforcement to bring you more quality rock and roll.....
