NEW VIDEO....Directed By ANTHONY SCARPA (Thanks Tom and Ryan!) ..
this show already happened............duh!TAOS is made up of: MELANIE MAKAIWI WEBBER(bass) who played guitar in the original line-up of Scarling., the first line-up of My Ruin, and also played guitar in her first band, Penny Dreadfuls, & she kicks more butt now with 2 strings less.

And happy to add our newest addition...JULIE HAYS(guitar). We are just getting to know our new girlie and will tell you all about her soon...but we do know that she shreds on the geetar!That's about it.......i don't think it makes a whole lot of sense to elaborate much more describing the band to you..... besides, we're on Myspace and you can hear a few of our songs. actually, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH...............xoxoxoxoxo TAOS
