| Who | Mike Dimillia, formerly of Headcase/Hedkas Mark Hamilton, otherwise known as a DJ at WZBC and formerly of Headcase/Hedkas Kris Thompson, formerly of Nisi Period, Jasmine Love Bomb, Prefab Messiahs |
| What | That's a good question - I haven't heard them yet. So far no word from the band members themselves, so you'll just have to judge by their past projects. If you've heard them, send me a note and let me know so I can put something useful here. |
| Where | Don't have a current schedule. Sorry. |
I got this note from Kris Thompson to let me know about SCR's first gig. Unfortunately I was stuck in New York at the time and couldn't make the show.

SCR is Mike Dimilla - It's the quiet ones you have to watch out for.
Mark Hamilton - local "Rock" "DJ" - yes, Bill Maher nicked his style.
(Mark 'n' Mike were also with Headcase/Hedkas but
abandoned the name so as not to be confused with the
similarly-named BC cover band).
Kris Thompson - ex-Nisi period, Jasmine Love Bomb, Prefab Messiahs;
brother of Jenny.
Spell Czech Republic will be issuing their particular vint of
pre-futurist ham-fisted Robitussin-addled rock improv (multiple quotation marks
removed for legibility). The following instruments may be implicated in the
audiocrime: bass, guitar, theremin, accordion, dulcimer, synths, beatbox,
accordion, megaphone, snake whistle, medal. A two-rehearsal minimum is
guaranteed for your quality assurance.
SCR's on second, so arrival by 9:30 is recommended for interested
parties. The full text of the lineup is as follows:
Grief
Bratface
Dog
Spell Czech Republic
Upstream
Apologies accepted for your support.
