introduce Think About Life and give a brief history:
The band was first formed by Graham Van Pelt (the albino, vocals,
guitar,keys) and Matt Shane ( the hipster , humandrum machine)
who were basically living together at what use to be known as
the electric tractor. The dudes jammed together and came up with
some awesome overdriven tunes. Then they called up some other
dude who they didnt know that well to sing on their awesome ovrdriven
tunes , his name was Martin Cesar ( the black guy , vocals ) and
they instantly clicked. And they were a band. That was back in
the summer of 2005 and now its spring 2007. A lot of shit has
gone down. Another dude joined the band , Brendan Reed ( the other
red head , bass ,percussion) and shit has been awesome..
