Help Line

About Me


Help Line makes songs that are really, really, really good. They are so good that people cry when they play them. When people aren't crying they're usually fighting over them, buying them drinks, or chasing them. Yeaaaah.....it's a tough life for Help Line. Sometimes it gets hard being so popular. But they're used to it. They never can get enough of signing autographs, endorsing products or collaborating with other "famous" people. They have come to accept these crazy days as the life they were born to live, and hopefully you can become a part of it too. So add them, leave comments, and keep coming back to hear their vault of ridiculously good music! Try and keep the "lol's" and smiley faces to a minimum though. Cool? Cool. This is Help Line.

The lists below are always changing.
The Thank You List(you gotta earn it, we don't give handouts):
-Chris "Paco" Anderson, he's the only truly supportive roomie
-Colleen, Kristen & Alicia
-Donny Courtney for bumping our tunes
-San Jose People
-Fruity Loops
-Christina, Jenni & Robyn for letting us practice in their really long narrow garage
-The people who sold us guitars
-The world wide web
-Joel Ford's Headphones
-Marilyn Monroe
The No Thank You List(be nice and good things will happen):
-Joel Ford for asking when he gets to lay down his vocals
-Travis Nanchy for being a step dad (quote: Limit your times coming in and out of the room while I'm sleeping)
-Greg for calling Chris a "clown"
-George Hays for mocking Jeff's game and then signing off Gmail
The "We couldn't have done it without you" List(never changing):
-The families of Chris and Jeff
-Steve Kosoris for introducing Fruity Loops version 3.0 to Jeff
-Bill Gates
-Gold-digging sluts
