SOMETIMES I DOUBT YOUR COMMITMENT 2 SPARKLE MOTION

About Me

Rivercity Streets, the band, came to be on September 23, in the year of your lord 2005. The story goes thusly, Willis Kyle and I(tatum) have been friends since kidergarten. We grew up on the shady side of town with no one to fend for us but ourselves. In and out of orphanages for 18 years, we sold locks of our hair to survive. Willis having the man mane that he does, started selling his beard hair at age 11. He was the main source of our income until Kyle and I could grow beards. Since those days we've held down a variety of quirky jobs such as, billboard peeler, shoe shiner, tightrope walker, mechanical bull engineer, high-rise window washer, coal miners, horse whisperer, manager at Denny's, manager at IHOP, busboy on an oceanliner cruise, chippendales dancer. Plus more. After we realized those jobs just weren't fulfilling enough in all aspects, we decided to take up unenployment until we found something that we had a passion for. And so we've come to find out that Kyle has a passion for being a hostess at restaraunts(Salvino's in Corona), Willis has a passion for receiving money from the government(he's 1/2 American Indian) and I have a passion for Architectual design(I'm freelance right now). Once we had a steady source of income, we all went to guitar center and bought instruments and a p.a. We then rented out a storage unit right next to the drive in cinema, being how we all love movies, to practice playing music. We've been together for about six months now and we've never been happier in our personal and professional lives. We are currently writing and recording our own songs and playing local gigs, but were going to expand very soon. So that's our story in a nutshell, I hope it painted some sort of picture for everyone to admire and/or love. We love almost all of you! Stay in touch...xxoo

**THIS JUST IN FOLKS**

apparently a boy was found living in the field behind Food 4 Less, exhibiting were-wolf-like behavior. When authorities approached him he bit the head off of a social worker, then teleported into the rock and roll band Rivercity Streets, whom he apparantly did not bite the heads off of only for the fact that they fed him tacos from Del Taco and a Jones soda, which is now his regular diet, when reached for questioning, the band said that they've decided to keep the teleporting teen wolf in the band, since he had taught them the cunning art of howling, and teleporting. They have since taught him to speak and wail hot licks on the guitar. And they dubbed him...Richie: The Chotch Face Killah. When asked how he had learn to teleport he simply said, "its all in the hips." A mystery, an enigma, a puzzle wrapped in a riddle, what we do know is that Richie: The Chotch Face Killah, is here to stay, he's here to stay dammit!!Yo! If you'd like to know more about us as a band and as individuals feel free to AIM Tatum@ tatumstrange ...and Willis@ santeo97 ...we will answer all of your questions and/or just shoot the shit with you. Shooting shits, that's just wrong, but oh so right...just kidding(no I'm not).
