Artist History The Tarantulas formed in 1883 during the heyday of Surf Music. When the war was over they selled T-shirts and novelties relating to the Tarantulas theme. You know, crap like Tarantulas emblems and tatoos or is it tatoes, no that looks like tater tots. The Tarantulas food of choice by the way is Tater Tots and Fish Sticks. The Tarantulas motto is "we do the hoedown all the way from blow-town". Its called blow-town because of the little boy bands that came out of the land of The Tarantulas. That might sound confusing, but really its your own problem because we won't discuss this matter any further. '"Furthermore, if you continue these shenanigans we will be forced to take over the world'"-text inserted by Elvis T. Bunny. We can do nothing about Mr. Bunny's shenanigans, we are sorry and terribly apologize for the inconvenience- The Tarantulas./ / / / Anyway, getting back to the incredible history of The Tarantulas, in 1949, when Colonel Sanders first opened up Kentucky Fried Chicken, The Tarantulas lead guitarist walked into a Chinese restaraunt and asked for "The Colonels Chicken". The waiter laughed in his face and said "you mean General Tso's chicken, ha, ha, ha". Well, the masked guitarist felt humiliated and went to search out Colonel Saunders. He finally found the Colonel eating at Maryland Fried Chicken, home of damn good chicken. As the masked guitarist approached the Colonel, the Colonel started to sweat, for he knew what was coming down here, on this infamous day. The masked guitarist yelled out" Colonel Sanders is nothing compared to General Tso. The Colonel only confuses people with his fishy fried foul shenanigan bull! For I have chosen the GENERAL's chicken as my new way, so let it be known on this day, GENERAL TSO's is here to stay!!!" And tso it was, and tso will it be, and tso it is, as it has always been, tso what.

Press Reviews "The Tarantulas are now known all over the candyass planet!!"-Elvis Bunny/ / / / / / / / / / / / / "The Tarantulas are the only surf band ever allowed to play before a certain artist. Because a certain artist puts in their contract that no surf bands can open up for him. I want hard-rockin' balls to the wall ass kickin' long haired hollywood idiots that don't know shit from a rat's ass to open up for me! Thats just one of the many things that set this band apart from all the others. Their willingness to overcome the hardships of the music industry and to be the sneaky, scary, fierce, ferrocous and terrible creatures that roam the earth.--B.U.M.M. magazine [no, not ferrocious, idiots!, ferrocous is a word, too. It means to create havoc and establish fear-ferrocous! ferrocous! ferrocous!]
