Music:

Member Since: 9/21/2004
Band Website: temporarily out of commish
Band Members: Lots and lots of people.

Bulldogs, Chihuahuas, Pyreneese, and canary birds. Geese. Goats, and delicious pies. Ice cold beer, piping hot coffee, and well-brewed tea. Pusser's Rum. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. All that and a decent BBQ doesn't hurt, either. MAL VIENTO!
Sounds Like: Something you'll probably get drunk listening to.
