Like I said, who needs drums? Actually there is a punk band or 3 that practice down the row towards the back. Maybe there drummers might be into it... Where's that SQUID guy when you need him!!!

This is a Rockabilly, surf, roots country/western swing and tiki band being started by Lucky Designs (an awesome guitarist), Lucas Vigor on upright bass and Tiki Bong on steel guitar. It will be a hard-driving rockabilly style band playing originals and some covers, focusing on hot-rods, low brow art and tiki- we just need the prefect drummer to bring things to the next level. We are already scheduling gigs, and need someone fairly soon. We are advertising for the drummer in many places. This will be an exciting project, unlike anything else.

TM tiki mick Tiki Socialite SOCAL Joined: May 12, 2004 Posts: 4094	TM tiki mick Posted posted on Wed, Jul 9, 2008 4:28 PM I would love to have Squid. I already offered to father his child because he is so good! But sadly for me, the Tikiyaki orchestra nabbed him first! (damn that Jim for having great taste!) But the next best thing is to catch him live this Friday at Kona's with the Tikiyaki orchestra. Those boys are rapidly becoming my favorite tiki band! I am just glad I don't play exotica right now...I would not want to compete with them dudes!! (I would lose) I will stick with Rockabilly and Hawaiian.....for now!!!! But back to this project...we already do have gigs lined up, and they are good ones. Stayed tuned for some exciting music. Just leave your discerning taste at home! We just came for two things: Drinking beer and kicking ass!!

I play drums and this sounds like just the kind of project that I've been looking for out here in Tucson. I love drinking beer and kicking some surf rockabilly ass! Oh well, best of luck with your search. I can't wait to hear what happens. Maggie cheeky 1/2
