About Me

Dave and Scott started Slappin Grama when they were in High School. Dave played bass and Scott played drums. They got Dan to play guitar. We put out one tape, then stopped playing. Dave and Scott started Slappin Grama up five or so years later. Scott still played drums, but now Dave was playing guitar. Elmon joined up and played bass. Since then we've put out a few self released cd's. One time in high school, Dan couldn't make a show, so a fellow named Richard Murillo rocked the guitar. Then another time, Scott couldn't make it, so some cat named Brian Dale played drums. When we started playing again, we tried to get this dude named John to play bass. He didn't work out. I've still got some cd's left. They're the "Saves the Day"/"Good, Bad, Ugly" packages that we were passing out at our last show. They're pretty good, and they come with a sticker and a patch. If you'd like these items, I'd advise you to get in touch. The post office charges me two bucks (actually, it's $1.98) to ship these, but if you ask nicely, I might let that slide. If you're curious about what songs are on the cd's, go to the website that doesn't get updated anymore. There's a link somewhere on this page.

We was robbed!

I came home from work on Thursday to find my back gate opened. Upon further inspection, our back door and side window were also opened. Knowing we don't usually leave our house wide open in the middle...

We are staying in Arkansas.

So anyways, a few weeks/months ago, it was announced that Verizon Wireless would be purchasing Alltel (aka, where my wifey works). This gave us essentially until the new year to find a new job for Sar...

Graceland

We hopped in the car a week or two ago and headed to Memphis to visit the king. When we got to Elvis' house, we asked to see the man himself, but they said he wasn't feeling well that day and instead ...

The funniest thing I've seen today (so far)

While driving to work this morning, the car in front of me sported a bumper sticker that read as follows: "I'm black, but I'm not a criminal!" Classic.

Yesterday a huge limb fell out of a tree and onto our deck. Luckily, no one was injured, and the deck is okay, but something had to be done with the vegetation that now crowded our otherwise comfortab...

The end of the salad days...

Thats right, the salad days are over. As many people may or may not know, for the last year I've been living the dream of no work and all play in Arkansas. This will sadly be coming to an end, as i st...

Fuck Arkansas!

Since we've been here, we've watched people be beaten and Sarah's car die with no notice. Today was an all new adventure, as some dipshit thought it would be a good idea to pull right out in front of&...
