MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN! R U READY TO RAWK?!

It’s Wheelz Of Steel!



[Click through to the YouTube page for info about the “band”]

Okay, that’s pretty awful. To be fair though, it sounds more like two kids fooling around with a drum machine and a tape recorder who probably had a friend who knew a guy who worked at a vinyl pressing plant who said he could stamp it into a record, and wouldn’t that be cool to hear yrself on a record, etc.

Or it could be a Ween skit.

Anyway, I don’t think they put this out with any real intention of passing themselves off as a rock band. It sounds like the kind of stuff some friends and I used to do with tape recorders back in the 80s. We did them for fun, not as demos for A&R guys.

Anyway, I’m only posting this because I could swear I own that drum machine.

It’s probably not exactly the same, of course. But the one I have has the exact same sound. It looks like this.



Isn’t that interesting?

For those about to rock,
