Press Reviews Pulse Magazine - April 6, 2000 - "Palooka has a tendency to do what they feel, whichmakes pigeon-holing their act like trying to predictthe weather without knowing which way the wind is blowing. Spontaneity and improvisation are a large part of Palooka's recipe for booty moving and musical ecstacy...Palooka feeds off the energy in a room and a good audience will reap the rewards of long driven jams." - Steve Remus
