Charlie Brown gets a goddamn punch in the mouth...

About Me

Is it a waste of MySpace's bandwidth to make a page for a band that's not even playing anymore? Let me answer that question with another question. Why don't you just shut up?
Anyways, jerk, Charlie Brown Gets a Valentine played from 1997-2004, released two full-length records (Commencement on Wyndel Records, and Dismissed on Whoa Oh records), a couple 7"s and a split cd. We toured a bunch and such. It was a good time.
Jon Moser, who has a beautiful beard, played bass and did most of the singing. He now lives in New Haven, CT and plays in a great band called The A.V. Club. I bet he secretly wishes he was still playing with me, though.
Lucas Carscadden played guitar and sung a little. He may be the greatest man to have ever lived. Funny, sexy, stylish, sweet, good and kind, his only flaw is that maybe he cares too much. He currently resides in the Washington, DC area, where he tells everyone that will listen that he has a law degree, plays in A Study in Her, and definitely is not the one writing these descriptions. Definitely not.
Costas Nakassis, or "The Cos-man", or "Cozattax", or "Costas No-Costas" played drums and made up nicknames for himself from 2000-2004. He gets naked a lot, but somehow it doesn't make everyone uncomfortable. That's a talent, buddy. Can you do that? Costas lives in Philadelphia, where he writes, like, eight A Study in Her songs a day.
Also, Matt Fishel played drums from 1997-2000. He had red hair, and his paintings could be described as Hopper-esque. I'm not sure what he's doing now, but I think it involves recording.
So, anyway, there are some mp3s and such. For now, it's just stuff from our full-length records, but maybe later I'll find some stuff that no one's heard, and put that up there. Then you'll be sorry you didn't go to the CBGaV myspace page, won't you? Won't you, people that aren't reading this?
