"A band making some SERIOUS noise, Brooklyn's Bugs in the Dark have no time for sleepy-eyed, middle of the road, groan along, pseudo-rock anthems - they're too busy delivering ferocious, sweaty punk, fueled by sledgehammer drums and mean dueling guitars. Highly Recommended for fans of classic power-punk trios such as the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Sleater Kinney."

My band, Wicked Jezabel is playing tonight (May 16th)
at Tommy's Place in Manassas, Va (just outside of DC). Come party to classic rock and 80's music!

Yeah what a great initiative! Girl drummers should support each other since we are so few! Just a shame that you people live so far away.. we need more members!
