The Presidential Targets

Vote Them Out!
.. --WE HOPE YOU LIKE OUR SLIDE SHOW AND BUSH ANIMATION! Then it comes to our slide show, we say, "A pretty face will sell a produce, but an ugly face will make you never forget it!" So enjoy the cool slide show. As for the animation... This was done by Paul (Targets vocal-guy and animator) and Keith (friend and video-guy for the Targets) Both will be making naked pyramids in a cell on Guantanamo Bay, very soon!!!! ------NOW FOR THE HISTORY OF THE BAND.... This band began as a political vehicle for the rantings of the misguided minds of two wayward Wallingford, Connecticut yoots. As the years went on and the body count rose, the band felt that it was easier to catch flies with shit than it was to catch them with sugar. So, shit it was and a lot of shit it became. Members came and went, underwear changed, and the band played on. At the start of the 90's the Targets released an LP called, "Songs From The Shower." The songs "I Killed My Boss" "Blame It On Alcohol" and "You're Boyfriend's An Asshole" were played in heavy rotation on the college stations. --In the mid-90's the band played CT, NY and MA a lot. It was at this time when the Targets invented "Slob Rock" ...It's music for the ugly ...which, YOU are! It's a fact that fashion models make horrible musicians! And remember to "Say No to drugs, and Yes to donuts!" Also at this time, the Targets were growing in popularity and soon had a following...and what a lovely couple they were. The Targets also released a few CD's on their own... ("Doll Head" & "If You Are What You Eat") It was a nice thing to do and it almost got them laid. Some of the songs at that time: "Trailer Trash Queen" "Toilet" "Eating The Old Grey Mouse" Some say, The Targets are a real-life Spinal Tap ...Others say, Richard Simmons slept with half the band. But nobody can say, The Targets don't flush the toilet after going to the bathroom. They're very clean! --July 2001, the Targets released the video/DVD "TargetTV" This landed the band in hot water and a lot of ass-kissing had to be done just to keep three band members out of jail. The days that followed were filled with lawyers, donuts and learning to square dance. The case was thrown out of court when it was realized that there was no prison in the world that could hold The Presidential Targets! --In the year 2005 the band signed with (up & coming) Rat Rock Records and recorded the CD, "Keeping The Dream Alive" (You can see artwork from the CD on the, More photos page) Some of the songs on the disc... "I Married My Fist" "Dirty Magazine" and the song that has become Wallingford's anthem...."Rehab" --In 2006 the Targets have been talking to a couple of big-name companies that might sponsor an east-coast tour for them in 2007. The companies... "The International House of Pancakes" and "Drake's Ring Dings" are very interested! ..... Slob Rock attacks at dawn! --In 2008 The Targets are no longer on the Rat Rock Record label. With all the show-case gigs and big-city-one-night-gigs, it was just too much time on the road for the band... They wanted more studio time. Now, with several "new" songs ready to record, The Targets are looking for a new cool record company.-----To hear cuts from the new CD go to Cdbaby.... http://cdbaby.com/cd/presidentialtargets .....We're also on iTunes! The link is being worked on right now, but I'll put it in very soon. ....Also, there's a documentary being made about The Presidential Targets.
