About Me

Who Are We?Well, that’s a good question! I guess the most accurate definition would be that we are five guys who passionately enjoy entertaining people through music. I can go on and tell you that we’re all seasoned musicians who have played in a variety of different bands since our early teens, but I’d rather focus on what it is we’re doing now.Chris and I (Darik) after trying our luck with the local metal band Freebeer (covering bands like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, etc.,) decided to change our direction, our name and our premise. It’s now, if never before, all about doing this for two reasons; To have a good time and drink lot’s of goddamn beer! Why? Well, basically because we believe that when people go out, they want to forget about work, school and all the other BS that goes on in their lives. We want our audience to be able to sing along with the songs they grew up with and be around people who are fun.Darik and the funbags is a coming together of all these things and our goal is to continue to dig deep into our twisted, creative and playfully eccentric minds to create this kind of atmosphere. And of course if all that fails, we all just get drunk and pray for the best. Nevertheless, it’s always a good time! If people walk away saying "I can’t believe I had that great of a time!" then we feel we’ve done our job! If you’ve been to any of our shows then you know why it’s been working so well. It’s undoubtedly because of the people we call "funbaggers".What’s a funbagger? Well, that would be those who partake in the madness week to week, leaving their inhibitions at home, free to dance, sing and get crazy with no fear of criticism. If you see one of these people, say hi, buy them a drink, take off each others clothes, what have you but do something because they just might change your life, they most definitely have changed ours!
