    No way!  You guys have a band called that too?  There's a local band
    from Pueblo, CO called Wicked Wayz that plays(ed?) around here
    sometimes.  They were on the same bill as Friz's old band at least a
    couple of times.

    No offense to 'em, 'cause they seemed like they were trying hard, but I
    have a hard time imaging them getting signed.  I guess stranger things
    have happened...

    	You know, all this "Wicked Wayz Bashing" was somewhat amusing for
        the first week or so, and the "Mine Lounge" jokes were hilarious the	
        first 35000 times, but it's all getting old.
    
    	Bob Mercier is the only one in here who could even justify all
    	the ribbing that he's done, being the only one with a real future 
        [or at least a start] in the music business.  All the rest
    	of you are basically wanna-be's who haven't quite made it yet,
    	for one reason or another.
    
    	So give it a rest, Greg.  Thank you.

    Dear_Buck.
    If Wicked_Wayz were here to Defend Them_Selfs,It would be another
    Matter.
    
    GTI is the only one in here who could justify all the ribbin thats
    done here,bein the only one with a real future in MOD_erizem.
    All the rest of you are basically Wanna_Doo_Bee's who haven't quite
    made it yet,for one reason or A_Nother.

    Well, at the risk of getting this topic back on track, I got a demo ep
    of this band (not the ones discussed in the previosuly few notes, the
    UK ones) and the tape is AMAZING. They sound very similar to Steel
    Heart, even the vocalist. They're signed to something like HFC records
    (don't know who they are) and they're due to start recording an album
    in the next couple months.
    
    And, if anyone should find themselves in the position of giving a
    flying toss amongst all this bickering, I got an audition with them next 
    Tuesday.
