I'M JUST GONNA MAKE THIS QUICK BECAUSE I DON'T REMEMBER TOO MUCH ABOUT IT. THE FIRST LINEUP WAS ME (DYLAN) ON DRUMS, AL ON BASS, AND OUR FRIEND LYLE ON GUITAR. WE PLAYED OUR FIRST SHOW AFTER OUR FIRST "PRACTICE", AND THAT WAS JUST ABOUT ALL WE ACCOMPLISHED. LET'S JUST SAY WE HAD CREATIVE DIFFERENCES.
THE NEXT ATTEMPT WAS ME ON GUITAR, AL ON BASS, AND ERIC FROM THE DIRTY NEEDLES ON DRUMS. I THINK I MET ERIC AT A HOUSE PARTY OR SOMETHING, AND ASKED HIM IF HE WANTED TO START AN ANGRY SAMOANS COVER BAND. AFTER A FEW DRUNKEN ATTEMPTS, WE DECIDED WE COULDN'T PLAY THE SONGS VERY WELL. WE NEEDED OUR OWN SONGS...AND A SINGER.
THIS IS WHERE ASHTREY COMES INTO THE PICTURE. AL HAD KNOWN HIM FROM THE COBALT, AND THOUGHT HE WOULD BE A GOOD ADDITION TO THE "BAND".
A FEW HUNDRED BEERS LATER, WE HAVE THE LADY KILLERS YOU ALL KNOW AND LOVE TO HATE.
We're here to help artists and arts organizations reach their audiences and each other.
Non-profit run and created by the community, ArtsVictoria.ca integrates current event listings and multimedia arts portfolios, and creates an explorable, living archive of the arts in Victoria BC.
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
