You Are A Weapon (2006-2009)

About Me


The boys of You Are A Weapon would like to extend our sincerest thanks to everyone who was a part of our "Lives". To our families, thank you for the support and love you showed us. You gave of your homes, finances and personal sanity to help us see this thing through. To our friends - we can never give back the money you spent coming out to watch us, but know that there were many times we all sat together and gave thanks for you. It was the support of those around us that kept us going when things got bad - your hand claps and sing alongs were our personal victories. To the promoters who put money and time on the line for us - thank you. Your dedication to making local music heard is awesome.
To those who enjoyed our music, shared it with others, bought a shirt or picked up a CD - know that we got so excited just thinking that other people cared enough to buy our junk and listen to our noise.
The past few years have been some of the most fun times we've ever had. Our last big hope is that you listen past the music and grab on to the message - You are a weapon, you are a war.
See Yaaw'll around!
Joel, Brandon, Matt, Aaron and Jordan
