None of the take ourselves all serious BS. emo kids hate it, Heshers love it. Living by the out of style motto of SEX DRUGS AND ROCK N ROLL The Sleestaks come in kick it out and leave a hell of a mess. The Sleestaks are regulars in the local scene supporting kick ass touring bands such as Hognose, Atomic Bitchwax, RPG, Honky,Dixie Witch, The Hangmen and other real rawkers.
