    Artist History
    Finally! The demo is done and people like it. we like it most days but we can't wait to record a full length project. Paul's got some great songs. I played with him for three years in the Beatifics and never knew he had the songs and that real rock voice (hell, I didn't even know he played guitar). I guess I should have paid more attention to the Pigeonholes back in the day. After the two of us split from the Beatifics (artistic differences, right?) and had a year off to concentrate on marginal day jobs, we knew we had to rock again. I knew I could play guitar, but I had to finish up the songs I had been carrying around for a few years. So in a flurry of pen strokes we had a set but no band. We were jamming with our good friend Andrew on drums and a few different bass players when Andrew moved to LA and re-formed Peachfuzz (the Peachfuzz Reformation Act of 1999). Good thing our old friend Heath was in town. We had known him from various Sioux Falls bands like violet and the Mark Romanowski Explosion. Who'd have thought that the day he came to jam with us he would bring with him our new drummer? Nate was a pal of Heath's from Sioux Falls who had been in 12 1/2 Charlies. He was living in Minneapolis providing rock solid drumming to the sound (and mental anguish to the members) of Hi-Test. We practiced for a few hours and played at a party that night. We really would have rocked the house if the cops hadn't shown up halfway through our second song. Here we are a year later with a $500 demo cd, a dozen missed opportunities, and actually a few shows booked this summer. If most small businesses go bust within a year, this smallest of ventures is a tenacious one. Without further adieu I present for your approval four new tunes from Betty Drake. Sincerely, Andy voc and gtr 06/18/01
