Hola Gringo's and
Gringa's! Happy Cinco de Mayo!
If your like me, your
probably gonna tear up some taco's and
Corona's today. Then wash it all down
with some smooth tequilla. Ah yeah...
Well, It's good to be
back from New York City. We had a F'n
killer time up there, saw some kick @ss
bands, and met some really cool people.
...and now here is
where we give our thanks and shout outs to
all our F'n Fans and friends that helped us
on this trip.
Papa Biro, we can't
thank you enough for letting us use your
camper over the past weekend for NYC.
You don't know how much that helped us out.
Thank you!
Kassie and Annie, you
guys are awesome beyond belief for flying
out to see us! I can't believe how
ridiculously expensive cab fair was though.
I owe you guys big time! Thank you!
Eric, Matt, & Triff,
you guys still have 100% attendance ratio!
You guys haven't missed one show since we
started over a year and 30+ shows later.

I think It's
about time for an overdue news update!
Well the big day is finally here.
It's 7:00am and we'll be leaving for the Big
Apple in an hour. Nothing like waiting
until the last minute to post the news.
Anyways, I wanted to make some quick
mentions before we go:
Let's see...To start
things off we'd like thank everyone who came
out to the Hard Rock this past Friday.
As always, It was an Insane F'n time!
Lifted and Ninja's who met God...we can't
thank you guys enough for playing the show
on such short notice.
Anyways, since I'm short on time here, I'll
get to the point:
I wanted to let
everyone know our Saturday night show at
Wild Spirits will be televised over the
internet! For those of you that can't
make the trip to New York with us, go to:
www.ScrubRadio.com
Also, we'll be on
K-Rock's Sunday evening broadcast of 15
minutes of Fame.
Be sure to tune into K-Rock this Sunday at
5:00pm and let us know what you think.
And finally, If anyone
decides to make the trip last minute, check

PEACE!
NEW YORK CITY BABY!!!!

Happy new years
everyone!
Hope everyone is finally fully recovered
from all the holiday partying and mayhem.
2005 was a great sophomore year for
F (...as in Frank)
and we wanna thank our friends and fans for
all the love and support.
With that said about
2005,
F
has some big announcements and good news to
start off 2006:
Let's see...where to
start...
Well its official!
F (...as in Frank)
will be competing in the 20th Annual
Graffiti Rock Challenge! This once a
year prestigious showcase includes only 16
of Pittsburgh’s best and talented music
acts. Out of hundreds of submissions,
F
was one of those chosen this year to
participate.
Those of us who were in
ill Noise inc. have had the privilege of
competing in past Graffiti Rock Challenges.
From my experience and wisdom, you need to
have crowd participation to even stand a
chance of winning this thing.
That's where the following favor comes in:
F (...as in Frank)
needs your help!
If you’re reading this,
this is your chance to be part of the
action.
Without you we don't stand a chance in this
battle of the bands.
So were asking all of you come out to the
show and be as loud and crazy as you humanly
can be!
The show will be held
this year on Saturday, February 11th at
Moondogs in Blawnox (click
here for directions).
Tickets are $8. You can contact
me or any one of us via email for
tickets in advance but hurry, you can
definitely be sure they'll go fast!
In other big news:
F will be hitting up
the "Big Apple" in April with our pals from
One
Step Away.
We'll be playing at Wild Spirits on the 21st
and 22nd.
We're tossing around the idea of getting a
bus and equipping that sum' bitch with a
barrel.
We need to get a count first of everyone
who's down with going. so once again,
if you’re interested in spending the weekend
with us in New York City, drop us an
email and let us know.
Don't forget, we have
lots of other exciting shows lined up as
well:
Be sure to check us out at the Long View
Lounge in North Versailles on the 28th of
this month and the Hard Rock Cafe again in
April.
And last but not
least.....T-Shirts!!!
We finally have
shirts!!!
You can pick one of
these fine looking T's for $10 at any
upcoming show or drop us a line and we'll
arrange to get you one.
(Gasp for air)
I think that about covers everything.
Peace out all you crazy
mofo's!
-Dragon
P.S
Thanks to 105.9 the X
for playing M.O.B again last Sunday!

some surprise guests join us on stage to
relive some good 'ole nostalgia. Don't
miss this show and live with regret, be
there!

Hello Kiddies. Another fun show on
our return visit to Peter's Pub this
Saturday. Thanks to everyone who
stopped out and extra special thanks go to
Eric, Trif, Bowen, and Tricia for helping us
get all our gear out of there at the end of
the night. You don't know how much
that helps us out. Thanks
Alright, enough playing around...It's
about time we got down to business and
started adding content and making some upgrades to
this site. Be sure to check out our new
media content. I wanna give mad thanks
to Eli for hooking us up with some wicked

our last couple of shows.

What's up party people! Lot's of new and
exciting news to talk about so I'll get
right to it with no delays. We have some
good news and some bad news. Let's start
with the good. First off, I just wanna say
"WOW!". The Hard Rock and Peter's Pub shows
last week were just insane. I never expected
to see that many people at Hard Rock on a
Thursday night. Thank you each and everyone
of you that came down to see F and show your
support for local music. We also got to play
with some kick @ss bands those nights.
One
Step away,
Grave Desire, and
Katet (from
Meadville).
I'm sure you'll be hearing (and seeing if you come out to some shows) a
lot more of these guys in the next couple of
months.
We're also going to be returning back to SoundScape Studios this month to throw down
another six tracks. We're excited
about going back to record with Doug & Dave
and We'll keep you posted on any updates.
Lots of new gigs have been added too so
check out the 'shows' section of the site
for more info.
And now the bad news. On a sad note, after 10 plus years of playing, Ed
"Ruffcut" Miller has announced his
retirement from playing guitar and has
decided to leave the band. After a prominent
career with such noteworthy local bands as
Rival, FC5, ill Noise inc, and F (...as in
Frank), Ed has decided to hang up his axe
and pursue a career in smoking and Big Mac
eating. Lol, Just kiddin Eddie! We love ya
and you'll definitely be missed.
Ed has agreed to stay with us through the
next couple of shows and the studio.
Saturday November 26th at Long View Lounge
in North Versailles will be Ed's last show.
Don't miss this show people! We can promise
you that it'll be a very entertaining night
full of many surprises! :-D
