We've got the first batch of videos online from our recent gig at Trophy's Bar & Grill.  You can see them individually on our Videos page, or check them out all together here:

Legs Against Arms joins the Birthday bill!

A few weeks ago at Trophy's we saw Legs Against Arms, who were just terrific.  We're happy they've joined us on the bill for our Birthday Celebration, March 13 at the Carousel Lounge!

Jon Dub will still be opening, from 9pm to 10pm, with WRS playing from 10pm to midnight.  Legs Against Arms will round out the bill from 11pm to midnight.

It's going to be a great show!

Wired: 1/3 of Americans think nanotech is "morally acceptable"

From Wired:

Nanotechnology—materials, machines and other products fabricated with nanometer-sized components such as single atoms or molecules—is morally unacceptable to most Americans, according to a sampling taken by the University of Winconsin-Madison.

WRS welcomes Bruce Chandler to the Squad!

We'd like to officially welcome drummer, producer, engineer and mixer Bruce Chandler to the World Racketeering Squad. 

He's been playing with us for a while on a casual basis, but he's accepted our invitation to join the band for reals!

As a producer, Bruce has done a lot of recording with local artists here in town, and we'll definitely be taking advantage of his skills in that area as well.

It's great to have him on board!

Photos from Pre-Love Fest!

Our drummer Bruce Chandler brought his camera to the Pre-Love Fest at Carousel Lounge on Wednesday, and some obliging audience members took some snaps with it.  Thanks, Bruce, Megan and Thomas!

Here's us rocking out:
