    By the way... I was asked about a song I wrote called Take A Chance...
    
    It's rocker, but since 2EZ doesn't do it (yet), we don't know what
    might happen... I think it's bitchin' !

    Coop,
    	You got SOME nerve !!  We already have 4 garbage topics (2,
    99, 126, and 129) and now we have 5.  Wasted disk space.  You guys
    think you need, better yet deserve a forum in which to get out and
    BLOW your own horns ???  OK, Jeff - GK and Charvel *&^%$ rooool,
    OK, fifths and roots make the player, you're a one man stage show,
    every womans worst nightmare and best dream rolled into one.
    Jerry (scary ???) Marshall and VanHalen period. You're so good you
    can stuff your precious Kramer up your *&^%$ and play hammerons
    with your prostrate !! BFW (BIG *&^% WOW)  And Steve, oh never mind,
    you don't get in to it like the bighead brothers do, maybe you
    have a prayer.  And who really gives a ^%$# about your demo tape?
    Nothing but warm air comes from the South anyway.  If you guys are
    so great, why hasn't Monsters Of Rock asked you to be so kind as
    to let some bands like Scorps and VanHalen open up for YOU ??  And
    do you think we give a fat monkey's ^%$ what new songs you learn?
    Think again !  WORM II sounds like a good place to have dead meat.
    Thank God for the "next unseen" key, if I end up in 138. I know
    what to do.  YOU bag it " Mr. Boo-Boo", you too "Rebel without a 
    purpose", we got better things to do.

    Anybody look at the back cover of Guitar World this month???
    
    
    Yngwie sez "REAL men play REAL Marshall's!"
    
    Guess that leaves out Coop. He plays wimpy GK's.
    
    Hey Coop, get a grip (no, not on that, on life)!
    
    Besides, Coop doesn't even like Harley's?!

    Jerry doesn't have a REAL Marshall... It's actually a 1979 Peavy
    Mace with the Marshall logo painted on it !  Real Marshalls have
    TUBES !

    Sheeessshhh... Y'all are to much

    re: Jerry
    
    You didn't have to put yourself down, dude.  There are PLENTY of
    us out here to do that FOR ya...
    
    Ok, Coop, Whit, Mr S.  Since most of us havn't had the opportunity
    to actually HEAR 2EZ, and therefore aren't in a position to put
    ya down properly.  Tell us what's so great about your band.
    
    gh

    Well, as far as being great, I dunno about that.  I will say that
    we work really well together, don't fight, we're all on the same
    track...Each of us has our weak points, and our forte's...and we
    all know what the others limits are.
    
    Pete, talk to Steve (He's the artist) about our logo, he's been working
    on one for at least a year now, and the only thing I've seen is some
    scribbled thing on the back of his phone book ! 
    
    It was kinda like a big tongue slobbering all over the 2EZ name.
    
    The nuke idea sounds quite good for your bands name...
    
    jc

    RE: a few back .....
    
    	OK, maybe an explanation is in order.  The last band I was in had
    a BIG following locally and we were always slugging it out with
    these 3 other bands, playing the same bars, doing the same tunes,
    etc.  We all played this biker bar called the AMVETS club, where
    they had a graffiti wall in the dressing room for the bands to display
    their artist (or autistic ...) talents.  Our sound man was a real
    good artist and he did this 6' x 4' mural of Dawn Vendetta (real
    dumb name IMO) on the wall complete with the typical flames and
    blood drips, dragons, the whole trip.  Now it was customary to write
    "sucks" under any bands name that was on the wall and I didn't want
    to see this thing defaced, SO, I got some spray paint and wrote
    "sucks" underneath it myself .... it was never bothered in 2 years !!!
    	So that was my line of thought, go ahead and get it out of the
    way.  What I wrote for the most part was things I had already heard
    in the conference, some in jest, some in total seriousness.  That's
    all, Scary hasn't lost his mind (IMO).  So you folks have at it.

    Larry (the WORM) wanted to have WORM II earlier in the summer than
    he did last year, which this is BUT, last Sunday it was 101 with
    NO breeze whatsoever - now would it be fun playing outside in that
    kind of weather .... of course it would.  
    
    We played a concert thing with some other bands promoting a new
    music store in the area earlier this summer and sunburns were enjoyed
    by all.  Surprisingly the crowd waited it out, 2EZ was the FINAL
    act, BFW.

    	All I can say is that jealousy will get you guys nowhere, I

    	come, all in due time! ;')
    
    	And if I could I would draw our logo (which Jeff and Jerry 
    	haven't seen yet). It is somethin' to be seen and not dis-

    *** LET IT BE KNOWN THAT ON 07/18/88 AT APPOXIMATELY 20:00, JEFF
    COOPER BROKE A "D" STRING ***  
    	
    It's about time Coop, ya quit wimpin' around and started playing
    like a pro - like MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !
    
    
    				Mr Scary II

    Crimeny!  How do ya break a *(&&^ "D" string??!???
    
    Was he swinging from it like a rope?

    
    Hey, D strings are no big deal.
    
    Bach when I wuz a Les Poaul man, and wuz tryin to do whammy bay
    tricks on a paul w/no whammy, I used to break D strings, A's, Low
    E's, High E's, etc etc  but, point was I broke more D and A strings
    than I did B or High E strings.
    
    

    That's ALL I break, nothin' but "D"'s.  I think I have a rough spot
    on Mr. Rose that wears away at the strings after numerous dives
    and slaps - what's a poor D supposed to do ???
    
    
    				Mr Scary II

    You guys must be a lot rougher on your axes than I am.  I've never
    broken a wound string.  Lots of Es & Bs, a few Gs.  Seems like I've
    been breakin a lotta strings trying guitars out in stores lately.
    That's pretty embarrasing.
    
    gh

I could probably count on one hand the number of strings I have broken.
Every six months or so, a high-E string will let go on me, but that's
about it. (A note - I kept my last set of strings on for about a year.
I love the sound of older strings as opposed to new ones.) Maybe I don't
break them 'cause I don't use a whammy bar, but I do tend to bend the
hell out of them. But they just don't break on me!

cat

         Well, as Jerry will atest, in the year that he's been with our
         band, he has never seen me break a string.  Never. I hope it'll
         never happen again either.  I hate re-stringing guitars.
         Especially one with those cursed trem units that require you
         cutting the ball off.
         
         I apologize to the world for commiting this sin...
         
         jc

         
    I've broken every string on my guitar except for a low E, and I
    use a whammy. (I use it with taste though !!).
    
    I generally keep a couple spare sets of strings lying about the
    house, but you can bet your bottom dollar that I'll break the one
    I have no spare for, just as I start to get the hang of a new solo.
                       
    Life a bitch, then you marry one.....
                       
    -Tony              

    See, the trick I use, since I break megastrings is I wind up all
    I can on the tuners.  That way when I break one, I just cut it at
    the Rose (since that's where it ALWAYS breaks) slide it down, and
    lock it in place.  Ask Coop, I can break a string and be restrung,
    hit the tuner, and be back playing before he can get back with a
    beer - practice makes perfect.

    I know how easy he gets distracted, you should have seen him at
    the concert last night.  It's a good thing that looking doesn't
    leave marks because there would have been some irate parents and
    boyfriends for sure !  If I broke a string at a bar, I'd probably
    have time to change all of 'em, and wax Scary Toy #2 (that's right,
    guitars are people too, they must have names !).  When he introduces
    the band he says "We're 2EZ, we hope you are too !"   That's my

    with Larry a little while ago and reminded him that 2 ladies were

    	Bring your camera, that's right, photo's WILL be permitted.
    There will probably be some momentos from the party that won't be
    suitable for your scrap book !  Just remember - if the guitars "seem"
    too loud (a popular audio illusion with drummers and other
    non-musicians) it's because we're playing outside and the sound
    travels funny in the great outdoors.  If we played in the woods
    and no one was around to hear us, would we make noise .... don't
    be ridiculous !

    Which do you REALLY think would ne harder to do ... take a guitar

    a steel belted condom (that's what a drum head looks like to me)?
    
    Steve's right, he does work for a living but I do too - I work at
    not getting caught in notes all day, so far so good.  Looks like
    WORM II may be a bit overcast, 40% chance of showers, BUT we'll
    just have to see.  Looks like there should be 100+ folks there,
    so we need nice weather, wouldn't want THAT many people in the house.
    
    
    
    
    
    				Mr Scary II

    So you're probably asking yourself, "I wonder how WORM II went ?".
    Well maybe you're not but here's how it went, BFW ....
    
    Saturday morning I had to be at work at 5:30, it was drizzling then.
    As the day went on the rain slacked off but the skies were still
    threatening.  I was ready to call off playing, I could just see
    our brand new mixer covered in water, no thanks.  But by about 1,
    the clouds had given way to some sunshine amd things were looking
    much better.  Scary did an attitude check and we loaded up at went
    to Larry's.  When we got there there was already a good crowd, this
    was about 3.  Some were already into some volleyball, the burgers
    were on the grill and Larry had a tiny boom-box for entertainment.
    The first order of business was to get the PA set up and get the
    tape deck pumping through there !  OPERATION:Mindcrime anyone ???
    We started about 6, sounded fair (but only if you were blitzed ..).
    Honestly, we stunk IMO.  Playing outside always sounds rough but
    my wife, who tells me straight good or bad, had her nose turned
    up after the first set and I said "You think that's bad, you shoulda
    heard it up there."  Our sound man is pretty new so he was
    experimenting some but we really didn't give him much to work with
    (garbage in/garbage out).  We took a break and came back around
    6:30 I think.  This set had a few bright moments but it had it's
    share of troubles too.  Like during 1 song I was all rared back
    to blast a Scary lead then, no sound.  I looked around and Jeff
    had come over to bang heads with me and got tangled up in my cords
    as he left - pulled the cord right out of my EQ pedal !!!  Look
    Ma, NO Lead .... oh well, WTF.  By now everyone had enough refreshment
    in them to where their hand/eye/brain functions were almost
    nonexistent.  I was more tired from working late the night before
    and Saturday too, but we all were suffereing one way or another.
    We got through that set MUCH better, much better.  My wifes nose
    had returned to it's normal state so we must have done better. 
    The crowd said we did - but they were polluted, so did it really
    matter ???  Oh yeah, during "Born To Be Wild" in that set, the party
    got to see what WORM II was all about - that's right, Larry did
    his world famous WORM, on his back flooping around like an epileptic
    under a strobe light !!!  And the crowd loved it !!!  So after the
    break we come back for a 2EZ "Greatest Hits" set, or in other words,
    "We're gonna play a bunch of our favorites and a bunch of easy oldies."
    That was moving pretty good until Mauldin's finest (da cop's) showed
    up ... 2 hours earlier than last year .... maybe my Marshall does
    carry better !!  They said they had had a bunch of complaints and
    that people needed to moe their cars to Larry's side of the street.
    There were cars stuck everywhere as it was !  A lot of folks just
    left.  We wanted to play some more 'cause EVERYONE was having a
    good time now, people were actually dancing in the dirt !  But better
    judgement told us to call it a day.  Everyone was pretty shot by
    then anyway.  The cops (had 3 or 4 cars) seemed like they would
    never leave.  Everyone broke of into little groups chit-chatting and
    then things finally broke up for good.  We tore down our stuff and
    I was back at the Scaryhut at 10:30 !  I was a good party, all things
    considered .................
    
    
    				Mr Scary II

    Well, speaking for myself, *I* was not polluted and I thought the
    band did a pretty good job considering. The crowd, however were
    definetly under the influence of some kind of substance and alot
    of them didn't *really* appreciate the band they were hearin'! 
    
    Well, I thought you guys did a fine job! Your covers sounded like
    what they were supposed to sound like, not like some bands that
    get out there and make like "wanna-bee" rockers. Roger has a good
    voice. You sounded great with "The Rain Song". I've still got it
    playing in my head.

    Steve has an accent...[jus' kidden, Steve, you do! hee-hee!]
    
    The guitarists were awesome! [I love guitar anyway, but even if
    you didn't you would've after hearing them]
    
    The first set was not so bad, At first you couldn't hear Roger too
    good, and the guitars were loud, but they fixed that quick enough.
    People started to dance after, I think the second set.
    
    Yeah, I saw the Worm II alright, all through the party I kept saying
    to myself, "I can't believe I flew down here to see some guy slam
    dance the ground!!" ;') It was a sight I will not soon forget!
    
    It was definetly a bash! My Dew's were gone before the second set,
    I had two, some little snot-nose had the third, and didn't even
    finish it!! Can't win, it's either your beer, your coolers, your
    druggs, or your DEW!!!! ;') :')
    
    Rae? What have *YOU* got to say about the little Headbanging Ball?
    
    [This should be good]
    
    -=Renee=|>
    who-doesn't-want-to-hear-another-Y'all-or-Reckon-as-long-as-I-live!!!

    
Okay Renee here goes (should have done this yesterday but, I was catching
up on work, yes I do work).

Rae's review of the Worm.  Like Renee *I* wasn't polluted, I was
somewhere in between.  I appreciated the band I was hearing.

I thought you guys did a great job even if I did miss Somebody Save Me,
the one song I had waited all weekend to hear.

Roger has a great voice once the sound stuff was straightened out and
you could hear him it was an awesome show.  The first set was
good.  During the second set a few started to dance...The urge hit
Renee and I but we never did get up...Why was that Renee???

I was looking forward to the third set but the locals showed up and I
left.  I wanted to hear alot of the songs they were going to do. Well
maybe next year.

If any of you get a chance to check out 2EZ...DO IT!!!!!!

Rae

    Who the heck is Roger?  I thot that Jerry was still singing?  Does
    this mean you boys finally found that long sought lead vocalist?
    
    gh

    Roger is the bass player .... he sings most of the originals ...
    Scary sings (?) most of the covers.  Still looking for someone to
    sing for us ...............

RE: The reviews...

Thank you ladies, that was very nice to hear...I guess musicians are their
own best critics, cuz Jerry and I both thought 2EZ sucked out the ass. 
It surpirses me, cuz no matter how bad we seem to sound TO US, everybody
loves 2EZ.

My feelings were that we partied more than we played.  Too much more.  Some
un-named member(s) of 2EZ had a little to smoke, and IMO, drugs screw up your
brain... especially pot, cuz your memory is the first thing to go, and you
forget changes and stuff...  We blew a few changes, and fumbled a few, but
no one seemed the wiser.  I guess one of the most important things to be
good at in a band is to know how to recover from a flub, without screwing
up things more !

Anyway, like I said,  Thanks ladies.  It was a real pleasure to have you
as guests, and your welcome anytime...

RE: .104 <If I never here another y'all>

Sheeeshh !  If I never here another one of these choice slogans, it'll be
too soon...:

"SO ?"  
"Well, I'm just sayin'"
"YO !"
"Been to Wista lately ?"
"Shut The f*** up !"

etc....etc....etc....etc....

;^)

    We practice MUCH louder than when we perform, which is a bad habit
    to get used to, 'cause you get used to crankin' and have to put
    the silencers on to play out .... oh well.  Yo coop, sinve the
    "drummer" seems to think 2 volume knobs will solve ALL his problems,
    I say we go down to Phil's a procure a pair.  While we're down there
    let's price some midi drum machines - I hear they don't complain
    much ..... agagagagagaga   (Steve, you know we're only kidding here..
    .... Phil's doesn't carry drum machines, agagaggaga, no really Steve,
    you know me and Jeff can't afford a drum machine, agagagaga, no
    really Steve, Jeff and Scary couldn't get used to playing to a constant
    tempo, agagaggaga, no really, all honesty aside, agagagaga ).

    Slight change in the line up...

    Jerry Has decided to leave 2EZ to explore other ventures in music.
    There is, by no means, any hard feelings on either side of the fence.
    2EZ will continue on as a three peice until such a time as another
    guitar player presents himself.  He'll be missed, but always welcome (I
    mean he's not dead or anything).  In fact, he will be expected to run
    sound for us at our next gig. 	;^)
    
    Interested guitarists should feel free to send demo tapes with The
    solos from 'Exicter' (Iron Maiden), Suicide Solution (live version),
    and of course, the intro to "Ez Cum EZ Go" to me.     ;^) (Pun not
    intended!)  Sheeesh !  I just like that tunzall !
    
    I'm sure Jerry will speak his peice too, right ?
    
    Go Scary !
    
    jc

    Yeah, 2EZ suffered some growing pains, and s**t happens.  Don't
    worry guys, hot shot guitarists grow on trees here.  The only problem
    you may have is taking the Scary-replacement back and forth from
    gigs 'cause he isn't old enough to drive !  Don't worry, your sound
    will be covered ... provided you give me *something* to work with.
    
    * include agaga.txt (14864 blocks)
    
    2EZ - may they got forth and multiply ! (that's your cue Jeff ...)
    
    
    			Mr Scary II

    Stay tuned...
    
    2EZ has found a couple of gentlemen (?) to augment the 2 powerful,
    2 Rad ... 2EZ

    We got a axe man who is studying theory, and a vocalist who wants
    to be Don Dokken/Geoff Tate.

    Coming soon, 2EZ hits the road on their long awaited 'Bite My Nads
    Tour - 1989'
    
    jc

    Uh, I'm kinda flattered ......
    
    	..... it took 2 guys to replace me !!!
    
    All seriousness aside (?), you boize hurry up and get your fecal
    matter in an orderly sequence .... I have itchy potentiometer  
    fingers !!!
    
    ... oh yeah, if the new kid wants to borrow my Marshall so you guys
    can "sound" heavy metal let me know .... agagagaga's as needed.
    
    
    			     Mr Scary II

    Well, actually Jerry I don't think he likes marshall's since he
    heard my GK !  He came in to the house talkin' Laney, Carvin, Marshall
    etc...Then I fired up my shoe-box amp....
    
    Agagagagagagagagagagaaaaaaa....

    jc

    I agree with ya to a degree, the GK "house mouse" model you have
    is GREAT for amplifying an air guitar while you're jumping all over
    your furniture in your BVD's banging your head to the stereo.  But
    alas, unless you do all your gigs in your living room you're SOL.
    Maybe you could get the new kid to buy a GeeK and then you could
    change the name of the band from 2EZ to 2shoeboxes !  Consider your
    chain jerked....:^)	  :^)	:^)

    Okay !  Alright !
    
    I'm workin' on it !  I don't even have a mix of it myself.
    
    We've been spending all of our time breakin' in the new kid.
    
    The kid, (Greg Boiani, btw) is awesome.  He's green, but he's a
    hot player.  If only I can get him to stop playin' Yngwie sh*t all
    the time !

    ;^)
    jc

    Count me in for a demo tape as well.

    Yo Coop, bring me a tape when you come out here.
    Peeeerrrrrllllleeeeaaasssseee
    
    
    the devil dog
    

    Okay !  Okay !  But first I (we) have to finish it !
    
    Yeah, he plays Yngwie, Anthrax, Motorhead and all sorts of nasty
    stuff...
    
    I'm like "No, NO !  We're a damn 'poser' band for gawd sake !!  Cut
    that sh*t out !"
    
    Kid's got the gnads to say I'm a poser.  He's nutz.
    
    jc

    Well, just because I play all my leads with my foot on the bass
    drum... or the axe grounded on my hip...Well...
      
    jc

    I think I'll steal the new kid and form Racer X part II, the sequel,
    Scary's Revenge ..... agagaga !!!!
    
    btw, Coop's right - the new kid is hot !  Your "new" singer sucks
    however ..........
    
    
    				Scary

    Correct.  He's a good singer, but is attitude sucks.
    
    He was history before he started IMO...

    I hate to say I told ya so BUT ...... and if ya need any help firing

    Howie is history... (actually, I was humoring Roger the whole time)

    It's really a shame about this guy - he sounds a LOT like Dio, a
    LOT.  BUT (and everybody's got one, he speaks with his ...) he's
    just not compatable with most of our species.  He needs a job where
    he's working with the deaf .... we already showed him a little sign

    OK!
    
    	Throughout this conferance I keep seeing 2EZ.
    	What I want to know is:
    
    		a) Who are they?
    		b) Are they any good? ( honesty will be appreciated)
    		c) What kind of Discography have they? ( if any )
    
    	If any of the mods just happen to members of this infamous band,
    	how about sending me the info on VMS mail.( Better still send
    	me a tape, and I will pass it on to the local HM radio show)
    
    	I am honestly not being cheeky, but we would like to hear more.

    I'll send ya some stuff.
    
    jc

    Please help welcome Brian McRee to 2EZ.
    
    Brian will be singing lead with us.  He's got a good
    Dokken/Tesla/Maiden voice, so he ought to fit in with the crew pretty
    well.  He also has an extremely twisted, perverted, and sick mind,
    so he ought to get along very well with a certain guitarist...
    
    jc 

    
    
    	Yea, I gotta agree, Brian will fit in just fine and his voice
    	is just fine also. 
    
    	So beware everybody, 2EZ is back with a Rock-n-Roll Hunger
    	Attack, and we're gonna take a bite outa everybody!

    	Hollywood.............cuz that's the way, uh-huh uh-huh,
    	                      I like it, uh-huh uh-huh!

    			      Does any body know where that line came
    		   	      from?  ;')
    
    	 

    Well, the time has come !
    
    Anyone who wishes to obtain a copy of the "2EZ - Raise The Stakes"
    demo tape should send me mail (you might have the intelligence to scope
    out the address above!).  I finally sat down tonight, and remixed
    a demo that 2EZ put together over a year ago.
    
    NOTE: !!!!
    
    This is the 2EZ that everyone has gotten to know over the tube.
    The lineup is:
    
    Steve Whitby (aka- Hollywood)	Drums
    Roger Talley (Non-Deccie)		Bass
    Jerry White (aka- Mr. Scary II)	Lead Guitar
    Jeff Cooper (aka- Hey-you, Coop, jc)Lead Guitar
    
    We all do the vocals.
    
    Okay, well the tape contains 6, 2EZ originals9 that are copyrighted
    (so don't get any ideas) and was recorded at Laurel Tree Studio's
    in Simpsonville, SC (aka - my dining room).  Keep in mind that we
    didn't have much equipent to play with, so it's basically "live".
    
    Sound quality wise, it's not bad at all (thanks to Mr. Dolby, Mr.
    4-track and Mr. E. Q Lizer).  Mr. Scary II and I got together, and 
    made a few copies tonight.  Limited Quantity !!!!  Don't D*ck around!  
    Now is the time to react !
    
    It's old, but it's not bad for a 4-trak unit.  I might also add,
    that the NEW AND IMPROVED 2EZ is even better, so stay tuned !

    jc

                BTW, what sort of music is 2EZ?
                
                - Rob says "Use MX90's"
                
                

    
    
    	
    	re:-1
    
    	what kind of music is 2EZ?
    
    	Well, it's a little disco with some latin jazz and with the
    	added mixture of reggae/punk/funk...........sheeeeeeesh!
    
    	WHAT KIND OF MUSIC DO YOU THINK, GEEEEEZ!
    	
    	Rob, this is a Heavy Metal/Rock-n-Roll type conference, right.
    	then would'nt it stand to assume we play Heavy Metal/Rock-n-Roll
    	type music......geeeezzzzz!
    
    	
    	Relax Rob, I'm just bashin' ya', this is Rothberg Bash Day
    	is'nt it?  :')
    
    	If you want a list or something just ask, but we do alot
    	of (as Jeff likes to say) commercial Metal, most of it
    	being originals.
    
    	DOES THIS ANSWER YOUR !@#$%^&*(  QUESTION?  SHEEESH! ;')
    
    	Hollywood.....................I like the idea of having
    				      a daily or weekly bash. 
    				      it's get's the blood 
    				      circulating in the morning!
    

                Just wondering.    Didn't  know  if it was poseur
                metal or progressive  metal  or speed metal, etc.
                Sounds interesting.  I  like  Dokken  and some of
                the other bands you've mentioned.
                
                - Rob
                
                

    Rob,
    
    According to the latest voyuers of 2EZ practices, I'm the only poseur
    in the band...See, I'm not a great guitarist, so I make up for it
    by being a total pose-animal.. Ya know, like head-bang 
    extraordinair, jump around, up and down...lick my guitar, stand
    on Steve's Bass drum, smack his cymbals and generally be a wild
    man ?!?
    
    Thats me !
    
    jc
    
    

    

    Yeah, like with two new guys, we've been going over the same tunes
    that Roger, Steve, and I have been playin' for a long time...

    Believe me when I say it takes a LOT of practice to be a poseur
    star like Jeff Pilson, and still be able to play !  Thats what
    practice is for, and it keeps me sane after 6 takes at a tune that
    I've already played 100000 times ! Ya know ?
    
    jc

    
    	Yea...but do you wear spandex????
    
    Bk
    

    Sometimes...
    
    My latest outfit will be black and red spandex pants, shredded T-shirt,
    black spandex shirt that comes down below my knees (complete with
    fringes and bangles, ala Cinderella) and knee high fringed mocs... 
    
    And don't forget the 3000 leather studded belts...
    
    jc (who loves to dress the part after wearin' a tie all week !)

    
    
    	Yea, Jeff's a real poser alright, but it would help if
    	he did it with rythum....currently he looks like (this
    	is one of Jeff's favorite saying's) a monkey trying to 
    	screw a football! ....... and get this, the guitar is 
    	the monkey and Jeff the football.....agagagagagagagagaga
    	agagagagagagagagagagagagaagagagaaggggagaggagagagagagag!!!
    
    	Just bustin' ya' Jeff, keep it up, cuz' ya' know what 
    	they say...........Practice makes pefect!
    
    	Hollywood...................who is the real poser of 2EZ
    				    ;')
    

    Steve needs to have his head examined !
    
    The best pose Steve ever did while playing is when the seat post
    on his drummer throne poked thru the seat and de-flowered the poor
    youth...
    
    Shoulda seen THAT heavy metal face !  It was kinda like this:
    
    8^0          And sounded like:    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOW!
    
    Seriously Steve, learn how to twirl your stix !
    
    jc 

    
    
    	OK, Back to Jeff's reply..........hmmmmmmmm!
    
    	For everybody's information, I do twirl stix to an extent
    	I'm not trying to be a flashy/showoff drummer but if that's
    	what it looks like when I'm playin, well then, so be it!
    
    	I just play the way I feel, which 99.9 pecent of the time
    	is either good, great or fantastic!
    
    	agagagagagagagagagagagagagagagagagagaagagagagaagagaga!
    
    
    	By the way this is gonna be the only reply I do today cuz'
    
    	IT'S MY VACATION TIME AND I'M GETTIN THE HELL OUTA DODGE
    	AND WON'T BE BACK TILL THE 5TH OF DECEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!
    
    
    	So all you Metal Heads can work your asses off and I'll
    	be suckin' down some cold cactus juice out west!!!!!!!!
    
    	Hollywood......................KEEP IT LIVE, PEOPLES!
    	
    	and I'll see ya' in a couple...............weeks!
    

    But the way he drops them, Jeff....it's so...so...hmmmm....maybe
    some stick-um would work ?  ;^)  
    
    				2EZ is Bitchin !
    
    If ya haven't let Jeff know ya want a copy of the demo tape GET
    MOVIN !  It's a must for the discriminating HM fan.  
    
    I had the distinct pleasure of hearing 2EZ LIVE this past Friday.
    Rehersal was a hard rocking, head bangin, tear the walls down time!
    The new boize in the band (Greg - guitar, Brian - Vocals) will soon
    be ready to help 2EZ rock the walls down at the local Greenville
    area clubs !    
    
    I was also treated to a a special guest appearence by Mr. Scary,
    who joined 2EZ for a set of wild Judas Priest and 2EZ originals.
    
    				"2EZ - Raise the Stakes" 

    This is a tape not to be missed !  It's hard driving edge shows
    the range and talent of 2EZ.  I haven't picked a favorite song from
    the tape yet.  They are all great. 
    
    From "Rain Song" to "Her Love" the tape rocks !  
    
    Yep, I be impressed with 2EZ.....wicked way cool band ! ! 
    
    Hey, Jeff, how 'bout some more of those Colorado Motherf**** ...they
    are de-licious ! !     
    
        
    Vicki (who is still recovering from a wild rockin weekend ! )            

    I must agree with Vicki about the "new and improved" 2EZ, the boize 
    ROCK !!! All the ingredients are there for a profitable band, it's
    just a matter of time (not much ...) and they'll be road-ready, provided
    I'm running sound !  And I thank evryone for their comments about
    the "Raise The Stakes" demo, God that's a good lead on the title
    track !
    
    
    				Scary
    
    Oh yeah, for all those concerned, after seeing Jeff's "outfit" last

    	Also that DEMO is the gnadz... I love that tune Little girl...love
    that git intro...  
    
    	Excellent mixing job on the tape too.  Very well done... if
    I didn't know any better I'd think I was listening to a tape copied
    off an album...great sound!

    it..you'll love it.  HEY!!!!  WHERE THE FU*K IS MY COPY!!!????
    
    BK
    

    Just have to go on record as saying:
    
    Marshall Rooolzzzzzz !
    
    
    This is Coop's latest set up:
    
    guitar--->marshall50w----(lineout)----DDL----|---marhsall50w
                                                 |
                                                 |---GK

    See, ya gotta come out of the line out on the first marshall into
    the DDL input, and out of the MIXED output (DDL) into the other
    Marshall, and out of the DRY output into the GK...
    
    It's the GNADS !
    
    jc (who is PUMPED up !)

    You forgot one minor detail .... coming out of the speaker jacks,
    your set-up should look as follows ...
    
    
   DDL --> mixed ---> Marshall ----> 4 4x12 cabs (celestions)
    |------> dry ---------> GK ----> 50 gal. trash can, generic liner
                               (nothing heavy going in here anyway)
                            
    Are you talking the new 150 watters, or what ?
    
    
    				Scary
    		     (Itsabouttimeyouwisedup !)
                     

    BTW - I might note that the awesome lead done by Scary (aka- Jerry)
    on the title track to Raise The Stakes demo was amplified by the 
    shoe-box sized Gallien Krueger...
    
    jc
    (Who still loves his GK)

    Yo Coop - me doing that lead was like Mario Andretti winning the
    Indy 500 on a moped .... I guess my talent rose above my handicaps.
    
    And something else that's a bit strange, remember when I set your
    new toys up at practice ... remember the look on your face when
    I jacked up the guitars (namely YOURS) through the PA ... get off
    the volume thing will ya ?  
    
    
    				Scary

    
    	Well, I have to thank Buck for loaning me your previous demo 
    tape  of  2EZ (`Raise the Stakes') and interject that youse guys 
    isn't bad !  Although  I  could probably use a little insight as 
    to  what  the words are to the songs, since I can't make `em all
    out. :^)  Actually, make that 75% unrecognized. :^)  Keep up the
    good work guys !  Can't wait for the new demo ! 
    
    METALord"_just_bustin'_ya'_n@ds_!

    Yeah, I thought the vocals were pretty clear...
    
    But if ya want the lyrics, just let me know.
    
    It's safe to say that we (2ez) have played those tunes quite a bit.
    
    So whats your fav ?

    I like Rain song, little teaser, and some other E minor rumbling
    the best.
    
    FYI, I have almost all the tunes worked out, so we can jam em in
    the near future!

    E minor rumbling = Raise The Stakes.  In reply to a few back, YES
    these tunes were practiced "a few" times so we knew the words pretty
    well.  Coop did a great job re-mixing that tape.  I had a copy and
    then I heard his and, well, he hasn't got his back yet !

    hey jeff, i just got off the phone with a jjeff cooper, he had a
    southern accent! he was pioneer tho''
    
    
    
    yea, and wheres my tape huh?
                  

    Hey folks!  I finally have in my possession, a copy of the coveted 2EZ
    demo tape, "Raise the Stakes". Having listened to it several times now,
    I am convinced that this item really does exist. Eat your little
    hearts out!
    
    I bet you will all be interested in a few comments (everyone has to be
    a critic, huh). Overall, I thought it was very good!  I really like the
    songs, they are well written, arranged and performed.  You can bet that
    I'll keep listening to this one for some time! 
    
    Here's my synopsis of the six songs.

    The Rain Song - I really liked the intro.  Also the arpeggiation
    throughout is a nice touch, I noticed this in several of the songs. It
    keeps it from getting too full. I liked the solo too, understated, but
    fits well into the song. 

    Rockin' in Reality - Very good lead tone, really aggressive. Killer
    attack on the solo section. One slight nit, the ending wasn't real
    clean.  There was a big dropout in the left channel on my tape towards
    the end, I thought I popped an eardrum or something. Scared me to
    death! 
    
    Little Girl - Overall a good song

    Raise the Stakes - that GK built in chorus was a little obvious on this
    one (not necessarily bad).  The end of the solo (with the repeating
    tremelo bombs..) walks on the next vocal line.  The final note clashes
    with the note from the delay giving an out of tune feel, drag too
    because it was really a nice touch. 

    Little Teaser - Very nice intro, cool ominous sound. There were some
    background vocals near the end that were really out of tune. 

    Her Love - Great ballad!  The lead lines are very pretty, have a lot of
    feeling in them.  The main hook sounds like a cross between Fade to
    Black (Metallica) and Run to You (Brian Adams).  Consider that as a
    complement, as I like both of those songs.  It not such an obvious
    thing, so it doesn't sound like a rip off. 

    So to summarize...I really enjoyed the demo.  I thought that the
    playing was excellent and the songs solid.  Effects were a bit over
    used, exp. the flanger/chorus.  Too much for my taste, especially on
    the vocals. Overall, I liked the mix too, well done gentlemen.

    I borrowed Buck's demo back when I showed in November.  So. . .
    same demo huh ?  Well. . .maybe  I'll eventually receive my own 
    copy  so Buck can have his back. . .but until then, I hope he's
    forgotten about it ! :^)

    day (and weekends if* u feel like it) until he send everyone the
    tape that he promised everyone else.

    I thought my vocals sounded GREAT on that tape, probably my finest
    hour !!!

    The more I listen to this tape, the more that constant flange on
    the vocals irritates me.  It's a good demo, but kill that flange.

    RE: Jerry
    
    Pfft.  Killer vocals. 'Specially on the cover we did of "Satch Boogie"
    
    RE: Greg
    Actually it's a chorus...
    
    I tend to agree, but at the time, it was nifty...
    "I dunno, I was very drunk at the time..."

    ;^)
    
    Ya know, we used Jim Morrisons trick of recording in the garage
    for that reverb effect on some of those tunes <vocally that is>.
    
    RE: .284
    
    Greg, we didn't use any GK chorus 'cept on The Rain Song.
    
    re: "Very good lead tone"
    
    Yeah, thats GK allright !
    
    ;^)
    

    I used the same "tone" on all the lead tracks I did but when I listen
    to 'em they all sound just a tad different ... ghosts in the machine,
    drunks at the console ...

    So I say, yeah.  Well the EAC (Employee Activies Committee) is holding
    a talent show and we want y'all to participate.  
    
    The thought of playing "Breakin' The Law" and "One" in front of all 
    the nice people in DEC's cafeteria turns me on.  Even the plant
    manager is up for it.  This could be fun !

    To each his own - Imagine this:
    
    A cafeteria (note: a place where food is served ...) full of Bible
    belters and suckers in their 3 piece polyester duds.  After a few
    comedy skits and "Puttin' On The Hits" routines, out comes "GSO
    Dudes From Hell" accompanied with flash pots and fog machines. 
    At the first note all the hanging plants land in the middle of the
    tables, splashing low fat yogurt all over the little tea toting
    ladies and their high-necked long hemmed dresses.  The flash pots
    go off - safety steps in, "Sorry boys, you know there is a No Smoking
    policy in here ...".  Then we break into some Metallica and facilities
    shuts the entire plant down because it sounds like the power sub
    station out back is slowly melting into the red clay.
    
    This would be a big burden to bear - the plant shut down and all
    of those people out of work, little babies starving in the street
    because their parents lost their homes, because of 1 band.  I think
    I'll just commit suicide now .... OK, where's a Debbie Gibson 8-track,

    Yo Pip !  This is a *little* more detailed version of the 2EZ saga.
    The names remain the same because no one was innocent !
    
    
    	1 - Jeff joins "Just Us", then the name changes to 2EZ.
	2 - Scary gets "axed" from Dawn Vendetta because his likes
	    are too heavy.  Scary starts running sound for 2EZ.
	3 - "Stray" gets removed from 2EZ, hard to say why.  ;^)
	4 - Scary joins 2EZ.  Poser, say hello to Speedster.
	5 - Howie tries to sing for 2EZ.  No go, Scary fires him.
	6 - All band members try singing, we need a singer, BAD.
	7 - Mark tries out singing, Scary tells him no.
	8 - Some other guy auditions to sing, knows a lot of AC/DC so
            he says - never comes back.
	9 - Howie begs Scary to let him back in band, sings "Holy Diver"
            over the phone.   Scary talks very rudely to Howie.
       10 - Roger gives Howie another chance.  Scary gets an attitude.
            Howie never comes back.  Scary loses attitude.
       11 - 2EZ makes the legendary "Raise The Stakes" demo.  Everyone in 
	    the notesfile wants a copy.
       12 - 2EZ plays a number of assorted living rooms, basements, front
            porches, and 1 club.  Steve and Roger get in Moon City Cats.
       13 - Scary leaves 2EZ, musical differences, or was that diarhea ?
       14 - Greg takes Scary's place (and then some ...) Still lots of 
            requests for the 2EZ demo.  Jeff comes over to the Scaryhut 
            with the master, makes 8-10 copies.  Heaven only knows where 
	    they went after that. 
       15 - Brian comes to sing.  Greg practices ...
       16 - Brian leaves to go to NC one weekend, never comes back, Greg
            still practices ...
       17 - Greg looses interest, needs more practice anyway.  Roger quits,
	    might as well since Family Court got all his gear ...
       18 - Scary says WTF, moves back in.  Still, lots of requests for 2EZ
            demo's.  Scary says "I'll make 'em and send 'em out !".  Gets 
	    names and addresses of interested metalheads.  Gets tapes ready 
            to mail but never quite makes it to the post office.
       19 - No bass player, no singer, no fun ...
       20 - Jeff and Scary move on to start all over again ...
       21 - Jeff and Scary find bass player (guitar player from Scary's old
            band Dawn Vendetta. My how things "come around" ...) and drummer at 
            Digital.
       22 - New band looses rehearsal hall.
       23 - Scary makes new set lists .... and waits.
       24 - Scary accidently records a Rick Astley concert over the "Raise 
	    The Stakes" master.  Gets p*ssed 'cuz the concert wasn't in 
	    stereo.
       25 - So who would like a copy of Rick Astley in mono ?

    You left out:
    
    	WORM I, WORM II		(I still don't know what they are)
    	The word 'F*CK'		(Seems to be well associated with 2EZ)
    	
    and nobody has mentioned Hollywood yet!!!!!  But then again, he's
    a drummer!!  I'm only joking!!!
    
    Agagagagaaaa!                  
    
    Why was my note set-hidden?
    
    ;^)
    
    Pip

    Yo Pipster !
    
    I can't figure out why you got hidden ... I saw it before the axe
    fell, didn't bother me.
    
    Worm I and II defined:  A backyard party (well 2 actually) where
    the owner of the house got quite plastered and flopped around on
    his back in the dirt like a WORM on hot pavement.  Ya had to be there I
    guess.
    
    The word f*ck defined:  What can I say, we had some f*ckin' rough
    times !  Some good ones too though ...
    
    Hollywood defined:  Back shadow ... don't give him a hard time 'cuz
    he's a drummer.  Really he's a frustrated guitar player, that's
    what leads people to take up drums anyway ... 8^)
    
    Drummers - -  please note the "smile" above.  ( I know these guys)
    
    
    				Just 2 Scary ...
      			    (Jeff's the EZ one ...)

    So who are/were 2EZ at the moment?
    
    	Vox:	Bryan?
    	Guit:	Scary
    	Guit:	Jeff
    	Drums:	Steve
    	Bass:	?????
    
    Am I right?
    
    Pip

    2EZ is dead ... at the moment and FOREVER !!!  May it rest in pieces.
    
    Steve and Roger are in The Moon City Cats .....
    
    Scary and Jeff are in a new endeavor which is un-named at 
    present ....
    
    Bryan is in North Carolina .....
    
    ... and WHO's on first.
    
    
    				Scary
    

    Yeah, it's like this:
    
    Scary		(Lead Guit - Most vocals)
    
    J (still EZ) C  	(Lead Guit - some vocals, does vicious Hetfield
   			 imitation after gargling with razor blades
   			 and pj ;^)

    Butch		(Bass - Ex-guit player who was desperate for
   			 a band)
    
    Todd		(Drummer extraordinair)

    We need a place to practice because our present host got married.
    Anyone have a garage we can use where the neighbors won't call the
    damn Mayor ?

    Hey Jeff ....

    So everyone waiting for a 2EZ tape"Raise the Stakes"
    is now sucking pond scum?????
    
    

    I wouldn't put it quite like that, but I believe Jerry means that
    he's made the tapes and just needs to go to the post office.
    
    Jerry, what say ye ?

    You didn't *really* record over my master did ya ?
    

    Bitchin' dude!  Send out a coupla copies of that Rick Astley stuff!
    I can't, like, live without it.
    
    gh

    
    
    Is he the dude that sings like a combination foghorn/loudspeaker/fork
    up the butt?

    Naw...that's Coop!  Listen to "Little Teaser..." off the 2EZ demo.

    Fork you dude.

    Can't Listen to it,till I get It!!
    

    
    At least Scary didn't sit on the master this time!!!
    
    Pip

    Yeah, he recorded over it !
    
    Sheeesh !

    Well, we came up with a very appropriate name...
    
    It's...
    
    "Shattered Dreamz"

    Stay tuned for more exciting details.
    
    jc

    And for all of you folks that kindly waited for Scary to get off
    his dead a$$ and send them a copy of the "Raise The Stakes" demo,
    they're in the mail !!!   See, I had to go buy some more blank tapes
    and ...
    
    ..... it sure is hard finding blank 8-tracks these days ...
    
    
    
    				Scary 

    Agagagagagaaaaa...
    
    Yeah, and he didn't really record over the master either...
    
    Whew !
    
    jc (who was NOT gonna remix that dead piece of meat again !)

    Yo!
    
    I think its about time I ask what all this Shattered Dreamz stuff
    is about?  I see its the title of a new note/.????
    
    All I personally can thin of is that ugly motherf***** on eMpTy_V
    sining that wimpy tune "you're nuthin but shattered dreams, shattered
    dreams...."
    
    
    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    
    Buck with memories from hell!

    Shattered Dreamz is:
    
    'Scary' 		- Lead Guitar, vocals
    'Coop'		- Lead Guitar, vocals
    'Butch'		- Bass Guitar, vocals
    'Todd'		- Drums (Lars Ulrich clone)  ;^)
    
    We've worked up a list of four sets of some jammin' tunz to learn,
    and hopefully, everyone will stay put long enough to get us giggin'
    again.

    We'll be A LOT heavier than 2EZ was.  We'll be aiming for the 
    MTV/Classic Metal/Metallica type audience.  Originals will be something
    folks will have to think about while they listen.

    Actually, it'll be an all processed Marshall stage... Butch has got a 
    Marshall Bass rig and rack, Jerry's got his two and a rack, I've got
    two and a rack...   Yipes !
    
    jc

    Yep - the only thing left of 2EZ ..... is the "Z" at the end ...
    and it's a little one !  We're looking at mid to late summer before we 
    even attempt a gig.  The song list we're working on is some pretty 
    intense stuff, like tunes by:
    
    			Metallica (3 and counting...)
    			Queensryche
    			Tesla
    			Judas Priest
    			Anthrax
    			Helloween
    			Ratt
    			Boston
    			Ozzy Osbourne
    			Ronnie James Dio
    
    			... and so on ....
    
    Plus, like Coop said, the originals will be "heavy mental", and
    the word "baby" will NOT appear in any of them.  Yes sir, we're
    gonna Shatter some Dreamz !!!!!!!
    
    
    				Scary

    Thats right.  No baby sh*t here...
    
    4 sets of rip your gnads off metal.  Thats all.

    Agagagagag...
    
    Thanks (!) Jerry.  I knew you'd have to say that.
    
    Anyone wishing to see a REAL posuer needs to come see me.  I have
    a pic of Jerry (aka - Scary) with complete makeup (including that
    eye lash stuff-yucko) in fake leather britches, and purple leopard
    skin spandex shirt !

    DOES THIS MEAN THERE'S A TAPE IN THE POST!!!!!??????
    
    
    Let me know coz I'm on training at the moment and won't be home
    until next week....
    
    Bonzo

    Here's an interesting tidbit...
    
    Mr. Scary graciously replaced my copy of the 2EZ demo which was
    stolen and in the process gave me a little added value, in the form
    of two extra songs extracted from a tape of one of their old practice
    sessions.
    
    The songs are called "Best Seat in the House" and "Take a Chance",
    and I've seen mention of both of them (maybe even lyrics...) in
    here before.
    
    Just to comment on the two tunes, while the recording quality is
    fairly poor, the songs are good.  On a par with the material on
    the rest of the demo.
    
    "Best Seat" seems like a fun rocking tune!  They seemed to be enjoying
    playing it.  The vocals were buried in the mix and sounded like they
    were recorded through a fuzz box (a cheap one at that).  That's not the
    fault of the singer or the band, just a bad recording. Steve
    (Hollywood) Whitby sings on this one. 
    
    "Take a Chance" is better (recording wise), as you can actually hear
    the vocals.  Overall it's kind of muddy sounding and unfortunately it's
    cut off by the end of the tape on my copy.  It's a good song, pretty
    catchy.  There's this really cool little lick happening in the
    background during the chorus that I especially liked.  I can't seem to
    get it outta my head.  This one's also a fun, rocking tune. I
    understand that our own Jeff Cooper wrote and sings on this one. 
                                             
    Thanks Jerry!  Good addition to the tape.

    	Why thank you Greg, It's definitly a fun song to do. And as
    	for my vocals, well, let me just say that that was the only
    	song I sang, for obvious reasons I guess............ 
    
    	<insert Sam Kinnison voice here>
    
    	CUZ' I CAN'T FRICKIN' SING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    
    	;') agagagagaga!
    
    	Yea, I think we were getting better and better with our original
    	stuff, but things came to a halt so we'll just have to wait
	for the reunion world tour of 2EZ, keep your eyes peeled and
    	your ears waxed for upcoming info.....agagagagagagaga !  ;')
    
    
    	Hollywood......................1ana2ana3ana4ana.......
    

    I think one of the four members would have to get killed before
    we could draw a crowd .... wait a minute... Steve, you're a good
    artist... YOU draw a crowd !   And if that doesn't work, get every
    one in the cafeteria to lay down on a BIG piece of paper and you
    can trace a crowd .... hey just a thought ...
    
    
    
    				Scary ....

    Thanks for the re-buff Greg.  
    
    That was actually the same recorder at the same practice...  I just
    have a bull-horn voice and tended to get a better mix than Hollywood.
    Take A Chance is as old as the hills too.  I think I wrote that
    5 years ago !  I can even remember the lyrics most of the time !
    

    
    Jerry, when I said 'put on some make-up and a skirt' for a reference,
    I was *only* joking!!!

    but Scary will be tied up (if I'm lucky ..) all weekend !  Trading
    Shattered Dreamz for muffled screams .... ahhhhh ...
    
    
    
    			Scary (1 down, a lifetime to go, yeah !!!)

    
    
    	You guys can always come hear the Moon City Cat's  play!
    
    	Which by the way was referred to as "atheist gospel" music,
    	tonite at practice and for some reason it seems to fit...
    	agagagagagaga!
    
    	It's definitly not Heavy Metal but it sure is a good time and
    	good jammin. Basically it's just good beer drinking and party
    	time music.
    
    	Hollywood...................y'all come back now, ya'hear!
    

    So, what's the scam with you dudes anyway?

    We need a bass player ... a place to practice ... and some local
    clubs that want to hear metal.  In other words ... all feet planted
    firmly in midair ... again !

    There should be a note in here somewhere.  They will be working on
    a demo sometime after christmas.
