Captain Gallagher

About Me


Four guitar players met one day in Denton, circa 2005, and decided it would be a good idea to start a band. After turning down the idea of forming a "Guitar Orchestra", they decided to draw straws on who got to play guitar. Tyler got the long one, so they made him play drums with it. Pablo got the short one, so he only gets 4 strings on his guitar. Stephen and Tarun played rock-paper-scissors for the final round... Stephen threw 'rock', which was clearly the most appropriate choice in this situation, so he won. Tarun threw 'scissors', which is also sign-language for "I'll be the singer, guys".
These 4 humanoids went on to create songs about combustible gasses, highrise condos, Eastern spices, dwarves, sub-atomic particles, Caribbean isles, schizophrenia, trees, bicycles, and other such rubbish.
Check out our album, The Adventures of Pockrus Page. Home-made all the way, on sale for $5.
