Old Joystick video resurfaced!

Some all ya all might remember the Joystick Generation. We began a musical quest in 2000 and to bring back some memories - here is videographic proof that we rocked out with some of the best! From 2001 we bring you "Leah," "Picture On Your Shelf," and "Fake Plastic America!"

Ska show!

More bands to be added to the roster
by the Music Industry Club

In ska news... last night Matt and I had the pleasure of being guest on Ray's Radio show - Sunday Night Procrastination! What a blast that was. The show aired at Midnight untill two AM and we hung out with Ray, Shay, and the Twins.

Mad props to all who listened and called in - Kris Parker, Billy Doran, Matt B, Glenn, and the caller from the Fashion Show. I hope that she found the website alright and was able to download "Keep it Coming Love".

In the mean time keep it Locked... WONY 90.9

SHOWS
We have two shows lined up... one is a tenitive, we are trying to find out if all we all can make it or not. It will be posted up as soon as it is confirmed. There is definate date for May 6th at the Waterfront. We've got about 8 different people in our band for this one. Special Sauce Cassidy will be appearing on vocals and hopefully Shay will be making a guest apperence with us.

Joystick Generation is coming to and just as we're getting our momentum flowing. In the words of Kurt Cobain "Its better to burn out than too fade away." Keeping it strong we'll always change our members like we do our underware - every few months.

Peace out cub scouts,
Tweak & Gang!

Thanks to all who came out for the music video. After a long nite of filming we had just one take. It should be enough to finish the music video. Both the recording and music video of "Bad Day's" will be done wednesday the 23rd!

Drummer

The Asian Sensation has his hands full- he's pimping full time at the WONY radio station. Listen to his show Tuesday 2-4pm on 90.9fm or online http://organizations.oneonta.edu/WONY

Just for kicks Angelo will be filling in on drums.

Filming Music Video
myspace.com/joystickgeneration

If no news is good news, then we've screwed. Monday night we finished tracking for a studio version of "Bad Day's" Kris Parker produced and filled in on drums for this session. We also had the Audio Arts IV group engineer.

With that we're filming a music video. The second stage of filming takes place at Joey's house. We need about twenty people at this filming if you'd like to be in the video show up to 5 Burch tonight. 8:30pm. Free drinks will go quick so get there ASAP!

Cheers,
Tweak!
