Picture if you will an unsuspecting Grant Houser sitting alone on the third floor of Patrick Sullivan’s (Knoxville) several hours before our show a few weeks ago. Then two detectives approach…

“You in the band?”
“I’m in a band,” Grant replies.
“Plan A?”
“Yes.”

More questions follow before the reasoning behind the questions is presented. A Plan A CD had been found at the scene of a homicide! A photo from the scene provided proof. Then more questions. That’s right, your favorite bass player was being Law and Order-ed.

Happy that the officers weren’t there to investigate his collection of panties or the rumors of wild sex with underage fans in the back of our van, Grant was more than glad to cooperate. Some details must remain obscured, of course. That being said, it is safe to say this is definitely the most bizarre pre-show routine to date.

Though the story is strange, it is not to be taken lightly. As we do express our regret to the family of the deceased (whomever he/she may be), we would like to take this moment to encourage you all to stop killing each other, for God’s sake.

In other news, HOTT FEST was an overwhelming success. Thanks so much to all of you who were able to attend. We’re very sorry for those of you who couldn’t make it, but hope you tuned in on the web for the show. The line-up of talented bands was incredible to say the least! Congrats to our friend and producer Mr. Don Coffey, Jr. for a job well done. We can’t wait till next year!! Also, much thanks to 90.3 The Rock for their commitment to new and great music in Knoxville.

Our continuing 2005 touring schedule will soon take us back to New York, Philly, Miami, and many points in between. One such point will be the Thirsty Melon 2005 SFKK Showcase and Festival later this month. We are very proud to be one of the 200 bands chosen to perform at this years event, which will be held the last weekend in June in Louisville, KY. Plan A will perform on Stage #2 on Sunday June 26 at 4:30pm. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit the official website by clicking here.
