Watching TV and came upon the King Bong interview on The Daily. Apparently the first 100 people that show up for the gig at Steamers on Saturday get a copy of their new board game. I might check the gig out, although what I heard I didn't care for (perhaps it was just a bad song or something). But I did take a listen to a few of the tracks on their website, not bad from what I heard. In any case, pick up their new CD and SUPPORT LOCAL MUSIC!!!! - Fri, 30 Jan 2004 12:48am

Thanks for the support Griphin. Yeah, sound always a little iffy when miking a monitor but happy you'll come to see for yourself instead of judging after one airing. It's not just games either. 1st, 100 people take home full length c.d and a game plus more fun than one monkey can handle.! See you at the show...please come on up and introduce yourself. Cheers, SweetGrass!!! - Fri, 30 Jan 2004 8:05pm

You can check out the resourceses on the red band and click on Gamma Studios for a phone number.. Rick May runs them, totally decent guy, accomadating, affordable, flexible. Really funky, clean environment. Kitchen and bathrooms, storage available you can get into 24/7. We've been very happy with it!!! - Sat, 31 Jan 2004 2:36pm

Pardon me but Greenlaw Ave (by the way these stuuuuupid fucking pot innuendo names are getting boring) are NOT one of the best bands on the west coast! They simply are tripe drabble sent from some god awfully inspired "freaky funk flow" kingdom. Perhaps some ORIGINAL ideas would make them one of the best bands on the west coast.
And by the way thy Bong people, what the fuck do moneys have to do with over zealous, self rightous, stoners? Have you even stopped to think about the images you place on your posters or is it always just decided by a vote of "heh heh..that's cool maaan. heh heh"
To be fair, maybe I'm being too harsh but I just wonder if you ever THINK of these things.

Ummm... Wow Bearhead. Try to have some fun. Maybe even laugh a little. King Bong is you know, a little allusion to a large Monkey so umm there's the poster art ideas...as for your feelings about the bands, you can't love everything.
We had an awesome evening and thank all the people that came and danced and partied.. Thanks to Greenlaw Ave. who have been wicked friends to Bong and a special thanks to the Steamers gang for being so supportive of our c.d. release party. If you would like a C.D. of your very own e-mail us at [email protected] and check local stores soon! Thanks ya all! SweetGrass! - Sun, 1 Feb 2004 5:02pm

I like King Bong, but I'm not too sure about the incessant reference to Monkeys. Maybe I'm naive and just missing something. If you called me a monkey I'd think, "Fuck, I really don't like being called a monkey". Don't diss the extra chromosome, Bong. - Mon, 2 Feb 2004 6:51pm

It's really not all that hard to figure out.

King Kong = monkey
Bong = tool for stoners

King Bong = Stoned Monkeys

Any questions? - Mon, 2 Feb 2004 7:43pm

I think King Kong would freak right the fuck out and crush you and your bong if you called him a monkey. He is a gorilla. That would be like calling Stompin' Tom a Yankee. You can be a stoned monkey if you want to be, but I'm stoned as I write this and I feel nothing less than human and hungry. I'm going to go eat a banana. - Mon, 2 Feb 2004 10:10pm

Have you checked the amount of hair on the back of your hands lately? The missing link isn't so hard to find when you play in a bar until 2 AM. Just ask the guy who licked my neck when I was coming off the stage one night. Monkey? Man? Gorilla? That extra chromosome doesn't seem to do much. Thanks for the explanation Ty I understand it all much better now.

Oh God, I still don't get it. I didn't know being in a band would mean so much math! - Mon, 2 Feb 2004 11:31pm

Wait a minute...
King Bong is a reference to King Kong?!
Damn, if I had known that I would never have agreed to the name change.
I thought the whole monkey thing was making fun of Sticky Kola...
You guys in the band always keep me in the dark! - Tue, 3 Feb 2004 2:08pm
