PANORAMIC ROCK: Influences from U2 to Radiohead to Pink Floyd aligning the band w/ Manchester Orchestra, Longwave, Joy Formidable, Kodaline & Turin Breaks
We were playing our farewell show together a year ago this evening on November 19th, 2021. We had the pleasure of checking out @decadentnation's album release show last night and snagged this photo. We miss you guys!
(1998) This Twilight Festival was interesting. I, Mat, had us set up in front of the wrong storefront! Ha! The organizers came around and told us, so we quickly moved to the correct location. Love AJ's seat! :)
(Circa 1997) We found ourselves w/o a bassist for a few years in the mid-90s. In 1997, Mat had the opportunity to go on the road with British blues guitarist, Robin Trower, as his tour manager. While he was on the road, Amy learned to play the bass!
(Sept 27, 2012 - Midland Theatre in KC, MO) We have had the pleasure of opening for several artists over the years including Plain White Ts, Zwan with Billy Corgan, Robin Trower, Gravity Kills, and SLASH, pictured here. This may have been our biggest show in 30 years.
One of the things we loved about the Twilight Festivals in Columbia, MO were all the new people we got to meet. So many folks became familiar with our music as they ran across us for the first time. Here, we met some exchange students from Japan.

Our friend, Bob Riley, took us into the big time with SIX tracks of recording on a Sansui cassette recorder. Here, we are in Troy's brother's spare bedroom. Kent was so generous with his house over the years. At one point we took over the dining room. (Circa '93-'96?)
