Check out new video for Aug 16th show!

About Me

To be spoken in the voice of the guy who does the narration for Hollywood movie trailers…. “In a world… plagued by pop tart singers and spoon fed flavors of the week, where real music has been banished to the darkest and silent corners of the globe. Where the magazines and corporate machines tell you what’s pretty, why you’re fat and how to be skinny. Over run by radio dumbness, innocent people everywhere are mindlessly forced to listen to the same 25 songs day after day. But in the shadows, hope remains. One band races against time, down endless highways and 2 lanes, from the basement of a motel 6 to the rooftop of the Ritz, to save the very soul of Rock-N-Roll and find the meaning of life, in the Upside of Envy.Starring: Melissa Montgomery, Nathan Meckel, Rick Tuason & Travis Vignon. Together they are, “Upside of Envy” action force.“In stereos everywhere” 2008 This band is rated ER, for every rocker."Dirty Laundry" Upside of Envy
