Misery Date. We've all had one, but that has nothing to do with anything that we're really about. All things considered, the name came from a cartoon that Tanner and Jesse used to enjoy. They started the band and quickly picked up Erin because a lead violinist is way easier to find on a campus than a lead guitarist, and Erin's just as good as any guitarist. Plus, it makes the group unique. Next came the band's first drummer, Cam, who quit and made way for Jeremy, Erin's classmate. Jeremy joined a polka band and sorta ran out of time for us, so we had to let him go. Next we've found Jon Frazer. He was in Erebus, who kick ass, but during the summer driving problems had us on the search again; Now here we are at Shawn Borcovan the guy we knew for a while before we found out he was a drummer. Some time later, Shawn literally quit after a show, crazy because we'd always joked about it and then he actually went and did it. Tanner didn't realize he wasn't kidding until much later. Now, we've got Danny Hendrickson, the drummer from the former Rare Breed, and we're off and kicking puppies again.
As far as the music goes, we just try to give something to the audience that's fun and catchy. The styles tend to range from pop punk to an emo feel at times. Song topics can include anything from real life issues that people can relate with to what life as the anti-christ would be like, and anywhere in between. Normally I'd put a line here about how we're not endorsing the devil, which we're not, but I just realized that I don't care if I step on toes. Go ahead and hate us if you like. The rest of you, line up behind us because we're going to take you places you've never been, we think.
