....Other influences would be....evel knivel...the transporter...christopher lee..stephen king...my Family* and Friends* ;)))... ....AND.....
*THE GIRL IN THE RED PINTO !!!!!...

OKAY, THAT'S A FEW INFLUENCES TO PONDER
I MAY HAVE MISSED A HUNDRED OR SO........!!!!!!!!!!
......THE INSPIRATIONS.......ARE A DIFFERENT LIST......AND........
........YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE*......... AND I THANK YOU FOREVER AND LOVE YOU ALL*......AS ALWAYS.;-) RR*
Sounds Like: ALL OF THE ABOVE...........NOT !!!!!!!!!!!!...HELL.......I DON'T KNOW....WE WRITE WHATEVER WE FEEL LIKE.....WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS....JUST THINK.....THE INFLUENCES I LISTED ABOVE....ARE MINE.....I DIDN'T EVEN INCLUDE TODD'S......AMONG HIS DRUMMING INFLUENCES....WOULD BE..SIMON PHILLIPS AND ANSLEY DUNBAR AND PETER CRISS AND RINGO STARR AND ANY OF THE DOUBLE-KICKERS FROM THE 80'S THRASH 'EM UP DAYS.....
....CLUSTERLUCK.......FITS FOR US.....AS OUR BAND NAME.....BECAUSE IT REALLY IS SUCH A CLUSTER.....THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT....THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE THE HEAVY STUFF.....SHY AWAY FROM THE STUFF THAT'S NOT.....AND....THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE ONE OF THE BEAT SONGS OR THE PIANO TUNES.....LOOK DOWN AT THE METAL STUFF..
..ETC...ETC...ETC....THEY SAY YOU CAN'T PLEASE EVERYBODY.. ..BUT...HEY..MUSIC MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND ANYWAYS..AND THERE'S SUCH A QUANTITY OF IT..AND IN SO MANY DIFFERENT GENRES...THAT.....WE USUALLY GET.....THE SAME TYPE OF REVIEW FROM THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN HANDED ALL 9 CD'S....."I LISTEN TO THE PURPLE ONE...THAT ONE WAS GOOD"......OR...."I LIKE THE ONE WITH THE OLD VULCAN STUFF ON IT..I CAN'T GET THAT ONE OUT OF MY CD PLAYER...YOU GUYS SHOULD'A BEEN
STARS"..*(.note..that quote was from one of our old soundmen..lol).OR..... ....."I LIKED THE BLACK & WHITE ONE....IT'S GOOD FOR DRIVING"....."ALL THE NEW STUFF ON INSTANT SINNER IS COOL EXCEPT FOR THE STUPID SONG ABOUT YOUR BOSS"......"..REALLY..I THOUGHT THE BEST SONG ON THERE WAS THE SONG ABOUT YOUR DRUNKEN, COKED-OUT BOSS" ???????????? ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????? SOOOOOOO.....????????
IT'S HARD NOT TO FIT IN ONE PARTICULAR GENRE.....AND BE APPRECIATED FOR IT. I TEND TO APPRECIATE ANYBODY..DOING ANYTHING, MUSICALLY.......IF THEY'RE DOING ANYTHING...TO ME...THEY'RE AT LEAST TRYING...AND...MUSIC....IS MUSIC...THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING FOR EVERYBODY'S TASTES....SIMPLY....."MUSIC MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND"....that type thing ;).
......THAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM FOR THE MUSICIANS...WHO LIKE MUSIC.....IN GENERAL......AS A WHOLE.......WE'VE ACTUALLY RECORDED 9 ALBUMS THE PAST 3 YEARS.......AND NO......THEY ARE NOT GREAT PRODUCTIONS.....THEY'RE FROM THE TRIAL AND ERROR METHOD OF TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO WORK THE GEAR......AND NIETHER OF US ARE ENGINEERS...BY ANY MEANS.......ACTUALLY.....I BITCH ALL THE TIME....CUZ THE DRUMS ARE TOO LOUD....BUT.......TODD MIXES MOST OF THE STUFF.....SO...IT'S UNDERSTANDABLE......IF A DEAF DRUMMER DOES THE MIX...THEN...THE DRUMS ARE TOO LOUD.......IF I MIXED IT......MY BASS WOULD BE TOO LOUD.....OR MY VOCALS WOULD BE UP MORE......
.......OR I WOULD FORGET THE HI-HAT !!!!.....CUZ I JUST PLAIN FORGOT TO BRING IT BACK UP AND WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION.....AND THEN TODD WALKS IN THE DOOR AND SAYS......"WHERE'S THE HI-HAT ??"
.......BUT WE'RE LEARNING.......
.......AND WE'RE HAVING FUN...........
.......WE FINALLY GET TO WRITE......ALWAYS BEING THE BASS PLAYER AND DRUMMER IN OUR PAST BANDS........NEARLY 20 YEARS OF THEM PLAYING TOGETHER.......AND YES......THAT DOES MAKE FOR A ..."SO TIGHT IT SQUEAKS" ...RHYTHM SECTION.......
........BUT WE WERE ALWAYS.......THOSE OTHER GUYS......AND....WE BOTH WRITE SO MUCH......TODD IS A MANIAC WITH THE TUNES...AND I'LL WRITE A SONG A DAY IT SEEMS..LYRICALLY.......*NOT REALLY.....SEEMS LIKE IT THOUGH.........I DO HAVE NEARLY 3000 SONGS AND / OR POEMS......SO....EVEN IN PAST PROJECTS.....IF I WASN'T THE MUSIC WRITER....NOT THAT I CAN'T.....IT'S JUST......NEVER FITS ANYTHING.....HA
.....OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT........???????........BUT.....THE GUYS WOULD STILL MOST LIKELY USE MY LYRICS......SO THAT WOULD BE NICE...
....SOMEONE THE OTHER DAY SAID WE SOUNDED LIKE "SONIC YOUTH"....
....AND..ASHAMED TO SAY...I NEVER HEARD THEM PREVIOUSLY..THAT I KNEW OF....PROBABLY DID..JUST...DIDN'T KNOW WHO IT WAS...HAD CERTAINLY HEARD OF THEM....BUT...I HAD TO SEEK OUT SOME SONIC YOUTH..AND .....I DIDN'T GET THE COMPARISON ???..THEN SOMEONE ELSE SAID IT TOO ??soooo ?????
.......AND THEN SOMEONE SAYS WE SOUND LIKE...."THE SOUNDTRACK FROM A QUENTIN TARANTINO FLICK".....THEN I HEAR METALLICA...THEN PUDDLE OF NIRVANA...THEN OLD MAIDEN....SOMEONE SITE HOPS AND THEY MENTION SIMPLE MINDS OR INXS...OR ELTON JOHN OR OZZY...OR ALICE IN CHAINS...OR ALICE COOPER...
SO.......REALLY.......WE CAN'T SINGLE OUT ANYTHING OR ANYONE THAT WE SOUND LIKE..
...........HOPE TO GET IT TOGETHER HERE SOON........MAKIN THE SITE LOOK BETTER....
..........THANKS FOR THE PATIENCE........COME BACK TO VISIT.......
........METAL.....ROCK.....ALT STUFF....PIANO DIDDYS.....DANCEBEATSTUFF... ...MUSHY LITTLE LOVE SONGS..AND..SONGS OF HATE AND HORROR... ....OR....NEW WAVE......OR...PUNK ROCK...OR...JAZZY STUFF.......OR........
.........MUSIC..........IN GENERAL....PLEASE COME BACK...!!!!!!!
....I WILL TAKE REQUESTS FROM ......."FRIENDS"......TO SEND WHAT'S UP THEIR ALLEY TO THEM ...VIA REG-MAIL......
