So as some of you have heard our S.U.47's original drummer and long time friend
Chet Kukuk has parted ways with us...
   To set the record straight his departure was not on bad terms and though it comes with great sadness to me and the rest of the band we sent him off to sew his wild oats and wish him the best of luck...
 But as they say "the show must go on" and WE WILL BE BACK in 2010!!!
 If you are interested in trying out for S.U.47 please drop us a line!!!

S.U.47 has big plans for 2009!!! first and foremost the confusion of last years supposed 2nd album's release has come full circle and the band  is intending on re-recording this entire LP...This means that a few of the songs they have been written since last year will apear on this when we all gets wrapped up sometime this spring!!!! We are currently busy booking more shows and hope to worm our way into more of the bigger gigs like 2008's shows with TIME AGAIN ,EVERYBODY  OUT!, FLATFOOT 56, WEDNESDAY NIGHT HEREOS, LOWER CLASS BRATS, STREET BRATS, JUICEHEAD,as well as this January's Show with THE TOSSERS.

We had a great time in 2008 and plan to make this year even better, more songs,more all ages shows, more internet radio play, more  venues, and there is even talk of a small tour this summer!!!!        Thanks to all of you who stood by us through the last 3 years and we plan to pay you back in 2009!!!
