Final Show Saturday May 7th

 

  Tristan da Cunha is a small island in the South Atlantic.

Tristan da Cunha is Brian Church, Steve "Mr. Adorable" Budney, Ernie Kim.

  D.Boon, late guitarist of the legendary Minutemen, once said, "Our band is 'scientist-rock'". To make this statement applicable to the group Tristan Da Cunha, one would have to insert the word "mad" before "scientist". In addition, average Joe/Jane listener must also keep in mind that there is no such thing as an EXACT science. TDC aren't concerned with ethics so much as elixers. The three men discard accuracy for aggression when playing their individual instruments. They dispense with medicine and go for magic potions. Instead of testing the cells for cures, they'd sooner create creatures and make monsters. They are the ones in the bio lab manufacturing mutants. They are in the physics lab figuring out how to fly. They are in the chem lab causing crashes, concocting chaos and building the bombs to blow up.

we play arty shit.
