What ever drummers do.
We are stringing up our guitars, taping up our fingers, getting deep tissue massages from Swedish cheerleaders and polishing our drum sticks (or whatever it is drummers do to prepare). Tomorrow we will be playing a show at The House Of Blues in Anaheim. It is looking like it will be a really good show. We have been given plethora (so what I got a thesaurus…don’t act like you...

How does a 'Dare' Valentine?
No. There were no chocolates. Champagne was not poured. Far from the ‘romance’ that is promised with Valentines day, the air smelled of nicotine and metal.The only desire in anyone’s heart was the burning uncertainty of the degree to which our mixes would rock. And BAM! Just like an arrow through the heart shot by a small boy with wings, our eyes opened. The song had...

First post, a day late.
If you have been to a “Dare” show within the last 3 to 6 months, you may have noticed that: 1. We bring the rock wherever and whenever we can, and 2. A couple of the songs we play are not on “Duped”.
