Frustrated by a 'holiday' full of rampant commercialism and anxiety created by unreasonable expectations, Red of Dirty and the Derelicts, and Khaos of the Piss Ups (formerly Jaded Jinas), wanted to do something 'special' for Christmas. The Scrooges were born in Red's Garage Recording Studio in December 05, where they recorded a four song EP of borrowed tunes just in time for that so called holiday.
UPDATE 11/30/06:
So.... due to family concerns, band members leaving town, and various broken bones and injuries, The Scrooges have had to hang up their hats this year as far as live performances go. We are working in the studio to bring you some more songs for the Xmas season this year, and some will be posted here soon, so check back. Oh yeah, a fine BAH HUMBUG to you too!!!
UPDATE 12/07/06
The Scrooges have been asked to make a special appearance at a "Destroy Christmas" show at Limerick Junction (formerly The Brickyard) on December 23. Seems we'll be teaming up with Dirty and the Derelicts (go figure) to play some of our songs at this glorious anti christmas event!! More details soon.....
UPDATE 12/22/06
The new songs are finally done, and some are posted here for your listening enjoyment. "Jingle Hell" was written by our late friend Eddy Anarchy. We had to edit it a little bit unfortunately, but it is still pretty much as he wrote it. We have decided to combine last years songs with this years for a new CD release called 'BAH HUMBUG!'. We will have some for sale at the show Saturday nite, and you can request them through us here on myspace, just message us and we can work out details. As for the show, we've got Dirty and Blake from 'Dirty and the Derelicts' filling out the group for our one performance this year. We'll be stealing a little bit of set time from the Derelicts, and bringing some HUMBUG down on ya for the holiday season. SEE YA THERE!!
