 Dickey Hands - (Houston, TX) If At the Drive-in and Pennywise had a baby, it would be Dickey Hands. Low end, choppy punk riffs, speed head drum beats, psycho screaming vocals, and a few Whoa-Whoas here and there make up this experimental punk rock madness. But where did it all come from? In late 2003, Fernando and Miguel of Jalambo Chispa ripped it up for five years in the Houston Indie/Screamo scene bringing in that Latin taste to the table. Fernando's live energy was not to be messed with. His loud, precise guitar sound pleased the ears of many. Miguel's haunting, and very high pitch screams blew the heads off everyone. But a few line up changes later, Jalambo Chispa was no more. Though, not before they rocked the stage with other H-Town bands like Trigger Minor. In 2006, Jason and three friends started Trigger Minor. Jason's drumming for Trigger Minor was the back bone for Dickey Hands beginning. His facial expressions made people laugh, but his singing along with the drumming made people watch. Speed and precision made up for Trigger Minor's off beat style as well as Dickey Hands more traditional punk beats. All the talents these three musicians brought to the table have now formed the likes of Dickey Hands, a force of power in Houston's mediocre Punk scene. This psychotic three piece band, consisting of Fernando on guitar/vocals, Miguel on vocals, and Jason on drums/vocals formed in late 2007. J.T. has recently been added to line up on bass guitar to finally give Dickey Hands that missing piece of the puzzle.

 Dogz On Parole- (Houston, TX) "One day, Rocker Jones; singer/trashy guitarist, was sitting on the curb having a cold Mountain Dew, pondering the life of his band and day dreaming about what may become of it...Thinking about the past memories of the clan, and wondering if he will ever find his dogz... He downed his Dew and looked up to see a troubled Tifferz, bass in one hand, and decapitated baby in the other hand... She said she was sick of society and want's to kill the noise of the voices in her head by pounding out rythems on her bass guitar. So he adopted the tormented girl and her bass... ...as the two delinquents ventured farther down the road, they decided to go to get some fish n' chips. They approached the counter,and the slender character, adorned with an eye-patch, parrot on the shoulder, and pirate hat, says, "Argh! You better take some bloody fish n chips before I hit you in the head with my shitty guitar and have my friggen bloody bird crap on your head!"...Right away, Rocker ripped the beligerant pirate out of the cheap fish shack by his collar and says I'm commendeering you to come with us and no time for a parle'. He says, "that's "Captain Twizzler" to you...Rocker Jonez replied back, I'll call you "Juice"! As the 3 were on the way back home, they decided to stop by the local grocery store to get some beverages...It was late...almost time for them to stop selling beer, but not too late. Each one of the troubled characters carried a case of beer, except, Rocker Jonez toating a case of his favorite Mountain Dew...almost to the cashier, Rocker looked down at the kid in the aisle stocking tampoons, and realized that it looked alot like his ex-wife...Holy crap!!! It was Rocker's illegitament son J. J....but on his tag it read Diamond J....It was him!!! His son of many rythems!!!...Drummer of Dogz... Together, the troubled gang formed Dogz on Parole. ...Sure...it may sound like a fictional story..but who the hell cares!!!
