About Me

Bonus Plus formed in March 2005 under a clean table cloth in Trenton/Buffalo NY. It’s members included Fun incarnate, Mayor Grape, Aquarium, and Shock Rocker Cody Lutz who was kicked out of the band for saying the word "match" on stage. These three potential criminals are on a mission to bring metal to children of all ages and teach helpful life lessons through song, and hey, they’ll have a few laughs along the way if you don’t mind. They recorded a demo in 2005 titled, "The Barely Scrooge Demo" and hope to have a full length out the next time Disney comes out with a new computer animated film. In the spring of 2007 the band gave birth to a young man named King Walnut. He would eventually end up replacing Fun-Incarnate on drums, who went on to pursue his search for the Lost City of Marshmallows with late actor John Candy. The new line up went on to record a new Demo titled, "Children’s Metal". King Walnut’s superb drumming ability has enabled the band to expand musically and play later and later into night, sometimes playing a set as late as 2 in the morning! In the Fall of 2007 the band was overjoyed to find out they were voted, "Buffalo’s most in shape band" by the EPA. They continue to improve and entertain as a band with each performance, national exposure is only a Duck Tales episode away! The band believes in optimistic mayhem and once watched Robocop together during low-key party.***** Bonus Plus make silence obsolete! ******
