Chemical Ali

About Me

Two thousand and three was the year it all began, the birth, the muddy water, the contract with the devil, the power of the ass crack, the three of us getting together and making noise. We met girls, added more noise makers, danced around on stage in front of real people, hired the cello player because she had attractive friends, fired the tambourine player because he had secret designs to take over the band, fired the cello player because her attractive friends weren’t attracted to geeky rockers like us, hired the bass player and drummer, fired the bass player because he looked too much like Flea, fell in love under a moonlit sky with the drummer and his mesh shorts, hired the keyboard player, made pretty songs, hung carpet from the ceiling, recorded pretty songs while we simultaneously barbecued and drank beer, and smashed our first guitar (although not on stage and not on purpose, but rather in the living room and because of a Red Bull wedgy)…and on into 2004, where we are now. Josh sings, Ryan drums, Travis plays keys and tinkers with electronics, Scott plays bass and goes nuts on stage, Dave plays lead and I play rhythm. Together we are Chemical Ali, and this is not the end of our story... Check us out on Lawrence.com , RockKansas.com , and at PureVolume.com .embed allowScriptAccess="never"style='display:none'

Dogs are Moochers

For ages, dogs have done nothing but sit around and get free shit from people. Yeah, some of them have had to work in a kind of slavery, but most dogs don't do shit. I used to think it was mostly due...
