The Interlopers

Good Evening, We Are The Interlopers.

About Me

The Interlopers are a band from Portland, Oregon. They play rock & roll songs that are inspired by all the music they've ever loved, filtered through their own personal perspective. They have no illusion of 'success' or a 'career in the Music Industry.' They do what they do because they enjoy it. Dan plays the drums, Dave plays the guitar, Barret plays the bass and sings the songs. ATTENTION MYSPACE USERS: DO NOT FUCKING SPAM US! BANDS WHO SPAM ARE JOCK DOUCHEBAGS WHO CAN'T PLAY SPORTS. LEARN HOW TO THROW A SPIRAL AND LEAVE US THE FUCK ALONE! You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !

Success/Failure

It seems that one of the overwhelming themes I've been experiencing or hearing about lately involves the definition of 'success.'  I've heard people discussing it in various forms, whether it be paren...

Sex

Random musings on sex today . . .* It sucks when you're not having sex regularly.  I believe it's an everyday need and desire, like eating or breathing or sleeping.  To deny it is delusional.  People ...

Road Trip

Is there anything more American than road-tripping down an interstate highway on a national holiday?  I think not.  The body of Americana that is encompassed in such an occurrence is almost unparallel...

Never Mind

I wrote a short story a minute ago entitled "Hooters and the Blow-Job: A Revenge Parable."  After I wrote it, I decided it was probably too disgusting to post on Myspace.  I did it anyway, and then I ...

Country Music in the 21st Century Sucks

Your Identity Crisises

Pick a genre, pick a uniform, pick a connect-the-dots belief system; you'll be fine.  Art is the bastard child of convenience for you; it's a damn good thing your lack of soul renders you sterile.  To...

Feminism In the 21st Century (?)

     I was very lucky to be exposed to feminism in my teenage years.  Lucky in that I was a teenager in the early nineties, and exciting examples of feminism abounded.  Being into punk rock and living...
