Hello Ladies and Gents,
It's been a long time since I've written any news on the band. Sometimes life starts going faster than you can get a hold of it, but I caught my breath for a minute to fill you all in. Read carefully because there's a lot of cool information you might be into.
We got our original band back sans Blare Bitch and it feels good to be all in the same room again!
We've been lucky enough to have a lot of talented players come through our studio doors to support and play with us until we got the fit that sticks the best!
Our much loved Johnny Volatile is home again after taking some time off to make the loot and now support us. He's rich - so he's a little snobby now but still Volatile. Johnny and I are the main writers of the band so we already have some new tunes waiting to be recorded.
*So Come and Record Us All You Recorders!*
Actually, I'm lying a little. Johnny is not rich and still has to work long hours but is fitting us into his hectic life because we are family.
Another interesting tidbit is Casey Chaos from Amen is looking into producing some songs of ours. If you don't know who he is, you really need to be educated in Punk Rock. He's one of my favorite people so if you haven't checked him out yet, do so now!

Lucky for us, we've been sharing a room with a really cool band called "Leda Atomica". The funny thing about us and sharing our lockout is we always end up playing in each other's projects.
Our drummer, Chase Manhattan, is playing drums with them and Angeleda Atomica, the singer/guitar player of Leda Atomica is singing backups and playing bass with us!
They're rock-n-roll and you can check them out here:

We're really excited to get back on the road again.
We're really excited to kick all your asses again!
**So Promoters, Bookers, Clubs and Bands - Holla At US!**
I have always been blessed with knowing some bad ass chicks. Corey Parks is one of them and a most talented woman. You might know her from her bass playing, fire breathing days in Nashville Pussy or playing stand-up bass in Charley Horse. The Die Hunns are one of my favorite bands of hers with her husband - the infamous Duane Peters. She's been making Camp Freddy extra special with her cameo appearances lately.
Well, now I help sew her couture punk rock designs. Everyone needs to buy one of her jackets, belts, bags, etc. There is something for everyone - men and women.
You can check out and order an original Viva Le Rock outfit from her page:

Being in a rock/punk rock band can really make you crazy so I think it's important for you all to know that Chase and I have been doing this new thing that's been helping our heads. You may have a Dharma Punx group like this in your area so be on the lookout. It's a Buddhist meditation society called "Against the Stream".
You can learn about them more here:

And whatever happened to Blare you wonder? Well, she went back to her original bands - a concoction of Betty Blowtorch, Blare Bitch Project and other ingredients.
They're called SuckerStar / PsychoStar - you can check them out here:

Whew!
I told you there was a lot going on! So digest all of that and I'll be writing more soon!
LOVE!
Mia X
