About Me

It was a long time ago in downtown Colorado Springs where the idea of this band started. It was late that dark and stormy night and there were two men who sat in a black car not thinking at all. If they had been thinking they would not have started a band because neither of them played musical instruments. They called the band SPABOTS and only 7 people know of its meaning. The band started as two and then grew to 6. It then went down to 5 and then to 4 where it stayed for a while. The four members were: Ben, Ben, Robbie, and Eli. Their last names were lost years ago along with their luggage which was accidentally sent to Batswana in an unfortunate miscommunication with the Canadian Airport. After a while of playing they dropped down to three members when Robbie quit. So they got Spenser Mcintyretonson VIXIIV to play for them. And so currently he's in the band, but he's only a temporary fix and they will have to continue on as a trio as they go to different states this summer on a smal tour of the US. They have demo CDs with an elephant on it. It's pretty cool.
