Roach Motel

Here is Roach Motel, Florida's most offensive band...Their sound reminds me a bit of Poison Idea, even though they are from opposite ends of the country. I like Roach Motel...Enjoy!

From their Myspace:

A Brief History of Roach Motel:

1963, Sheboygan, NJ - Bob Fetz is born.

1980, Gainesville, FL - Roach Motel play their first gig, opening up for the Bazookas at a tiny, out-of-the-way dive for about six people and a toothless bartender. A legend is born.

1984 - After an illustrious career during which the boys find a real drummer; tour with Black Flag, Minor Threat and Suicidal Tendencies; play with Dead Kennedys, CH3, the Necros and others, get lucky, release four records (including the mind-blowing punk compilation, "We Can't Help it if We're from Florida" and their debut "Roach & Roll", both of which are highly sought-after collector's items), the band finally implodes from the pressures of fame, money, and punk cred. In a haze of booze, broads, and Percodan, the members scatter across the US.

Last known whereabouts:

• Bob Fetz - Spotted on the "F" train to Brooklyn mumbling, "I am Gilligan."
• George Tabb - Founded the world-wide Punk Television (Ptv) media empire.
• Jeff Hodapp - Runs a successful flamingo farm in South Florida
• Frank Mullen - Producer of pornographic movies
• Paul Miller - Headmaster of a conservative private school recently in the news
• Eric Engan - Last seen on "America's Most Wanted" (reward pending)
• Russ Avery - Leads a chain of mail-order church franchises
• Chad Watson - Voted "most improved" at 1999 Amateur Tattooist's Convention"
