From the Swamps of Virginia, the M-80s were born in an era of terrible hair bands and the dawn of the Seattle grunge scene. Nevertheless, the band remained true to their call, playing some of the best garage punk music ever recorded. Raw power and emotion echoed in every chord struck and every verse sung. Killer shows of intense forces culminating in a true sound of rock n roll in its purest form. Rock n roll that made you shake your ass and move your feet, and continue the party into the next afternoon. A band that rehearsed constantly to perform their magic in venues such as the Kings head Inn and Friar Tucks. The M-80s remain an outstanding moment in musical excellence and execution. This page is devoted to my good friends Dewitt Katherman and Chris Korbet, as well as the band. Please e-mail pics of the band, flyers, videos, or anything related to the M-80s
Hey friend! A couple of weeks ago GaragePunk.com endorsed Senator Barack Obama for president. This video by Larry Lessig (founder of Creative Commons and a proponent of reduced legal restrictions on c0pyright, trademark and radio frequency spectrum) does a great job of explaining the important differences between Obama and Clinton, so please watch it. We hope you will agree with us and support Barack Obama in the upcoming Virginia Primary on Tuesday, February 12.
Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton for 20+ years is not change. Real change will come with Obama. Can we initiate that change? Yes We Can!
