NEWS ARCHIVES 2005

December 19th 2005
Sorry for the delay in updates. Things have been quite busy. Now the holidays are upon us. I have added some new pictures to the Shut Up Marie gallery from our last gig. I also have some video that I am working on for the site. I recently received a DVD copy of a video I shot back in July for the band Death Follows a Shadow. So I will try and add a clip from that.

Shut Up Marie
will be performing live on the radio tonight KXLU (88.9FM). We also have a show upcoming this Thursday at AURA Nightclub in Studio City, CA. Neil Turbin's Deathriders will be playing on September 24th with Agent Steel and Helstar.

August 4th 2005
New pictures have been added to the Deathriders gallery from the Thrash Against Cancer show in San Francisco.

July 10th 2005
I recently joined forces with Neil Turbin (ex-Anthrax vocalist) and his band, Neil Turbin's Deathriders. We just played a show up in San Francisco at The Pound for the Thrash Against Cancer benefit headlined by Testament. It went pretty well and the crowd had a very good response. Even with the monitors and vocal mic fiasco for the first three songs. Once that got fixed I think we sounded pretty good. I only had three rehearsals with the guys before this show. The rest of the guys in the band are Beau Simpson -Guitar; Kurt James (Dr. Mastermind) - guitar and Mike Giordano (Cage) - bass. Great guys and I had a great time hanging with them after the show and watching the other bands. I look forward to playing some more shows with them. Some pictures have been added from the show.

This coming weekend I will be shooting a video for a project called Death Follows a Shadow. Cool stuff. Now I just need to learn the song in five days - oh no.

The show at the Vault350 was awesome. Pictures from the show have been added to the Shut Up Marie gallery. Adelphia cable was also at the show, along with KIIS-FM and LIVE magazine, and interviewed us for one of their local cable shows called The Scene. It will air on April 14th on Adelphia channel 10 at 8:00PM. We will also be featured on KLOS 95.5 FM radio Sunday April 10th between 11PM and Midnight.

March 14th 2005  *wanted*
I am currently looking for a drum tech. I need someone who wants to be a drum tech. The job would mostly consist of meeting me at the gig to unload and setup. Take care of any drum issues during the show. Then break down and load up. He/She should have their own transportation and be 21+ years old. There would be minimal pay involved to start. Please email me if you are interested.

March 3rd 2005
The new look has been finished and you are now looking at it. I hope you like it. If you find any problems with the site, please let me know. Thanks and enjoy. Steel Prophet has begun writing for the new CD. I will keep you posted on it's progress. Also, the new website is being designed and I got a look at it and it looks great. Hopefully it will be up in early to mid-April.
