"Doing nothing is not a waste of time"

About Me

Since 1998 we’ve played in some apartments, in bars, near rivers, in gardens, in mountains, in cars, in a church, in few theaters, in an attic, in the hood...Our only disagreement is about how much the vocals should be reverberated. We’ve only cut two records during the last nine years, maybe we’ll do another one ’til the end of the year. There’s no hidden message when you’re playing the songs backward. Maybe we love you. ..This profile was edited with Thomas’ myspace editor™ V2.5
