The Rocketeers!!!

Post by Reist »

Jeff Henderson, Big Crouton, Brendan Schmidt and myself are doing new musics under a new name! We were previously known as Dr. Spectacular's Power Circus (and entered the fight for Made To Be Played), but we now go under the moniker - "The Rocketeers". Here's all the websites you currently need to get caught up on the happenings of our new band.

Official Website
Bandcamp (with music)
Promo vid for our first show! Featuring The Rocketeers, Lauren Mann, and Chris from The Dead Hands.

Check it out! We're hoping to have an EP out by the concert in March.

Due to the massive amount of positive feedback in this thread, I only can assume you guys want more news regarding The Rocketeers!

A few weeks ago we met up with a local guy named Brock Mitchell who runs a program called Shot at the Dark. He videos artists performing acoustic sets in interesting locations around Calgary, and we did a little ditty at a diner named Nelly's downtown. It's the first video over at http://calgaryisawesome.com/

I'm playing with a knife and a sucker, so naturally I can't bust out my for real drum chops. And I look like a douche. But it was crazy fun, and I'd do it again in a second.

I like the name. It reminded me of Disco Rocket Belt.

We just sent away the EP for printing, but you guys can hear (or buy) the tracks here - http://rocketeers.bandcamp.com/

Jeff Travis Henderson, Big Crouton and me are involved - the first two's musical endeavors have been well-received at SF, so you guys might like the tunes.
