I'd call Canandaigua a suburb of Rochester. Any of the Rochesterians seriously disagree?

Half the bands you listed aren't even active dude. Hoboz don't play anymore, bahtues don't I think Burtones are breaking up. I wouldn't consider your band an active band cause you ahven't really done anything yet.

Right now it is basically Skannotto.


This is a Stickup is not from Rochester. They are from canandaigua which is a good drive

Depends what you call active. We have a show scheduled in less then 2 weeks, id call that active.

Kinda weird, for some reason i thought there would be more, so i guess it would just be skannotto, and then us once we've played some shows.

HEY The Hoboz are not dead. We're just about as close as you can come without actually being dead. But we are going to play some shows this summer and MAYBE record. I hope anyways. And we'll also be at the Burtones goodbye show, singing along with them and everything. So hopefully we'll see some people there.

Been a very long time since we've had you in Syracuse as well -- feel free to help us remedy that!
