Heres
the news.
1/23/05 - Today was a thrill for the members of Sunnydale,
Ohio. A surprise show caught all of us all off gaurd. Two days ago we recieved a call from one of the
bookies of the White Rabbit. He asks us if we want to play a show at the Rabbit in two days. Without hesitation, Keller,
Johnny, Mark, and James voted hell yes to just "going for it!" We decided that 2 days warning wouldnt be enough time to call
friends, or family, so we decided, "Screw it lets just go at it alone!" Two days later... Sunnydale, Ohio
was rocking the White Rabbit! The show was a hell of alot of fun. We got through it without making any mistakes
or having any technical glitches. (At least none that were noticable!) The crowd there was small, but responsive. They cheered
and hollered as we played our new songs that no one had ever heard before. The funniest part of the show was probably
the strobe light flashing during Brown Eyed Girl. That probably takes the cake for as being the worst
time for a strobe light to flash. Marks voice managed not to crack during Rush the End. The band
had anticipated that it would probably crack! We played such a good show, that the bookie invited us to play
there again! So expect to see SDO at the white rabbit sometime soon! Thanks to all the folks who went to the show. We dont
know who you are...But we love you anyways!
<<Peace out and Rock On>>
Heres the news.
1/28/05 - Sunnydale,
Ohio LOVES THEIR FANS!!! Today was the big day. Our first real show. (First show that didnt get sprung up on
us last minute.) The day began pretty somberly, with the weatherman forecasting rain. Someone "up there" however, must
like the happy sounds of SDO, because not only did it not rain, but the sun came out and shined on us like
never before! The show was fun, but definatly not without its flaws. We had a great crowd there supporting us. Probably
the loudest of them all, was one of the coolest teachers in the world...hes a man of God who knows more rap
about than all of SDO combined. He chose to see us over the Snoop concert that was in town! Thank you so much Bro.
Tim for coming and supporting SDO. ( Yes we did hear you yelling!) Your support was uplifting and gave us all
some serious confidence! Highlights of the show would probably include, seeing the cute singer of KG2C (that was a highlight
for me at least!), the drummer of KG2C's crazy one man skank pit, our beautiful rendition of Can't You See,
the applause during Kellers Rush the End solo, and Mark making up the whole first verse and voice cracks during the
song Rush the End! Since having technical glitches are a tradition of Marks, we could not pass us the chance to have
a glitch sometime in the show. This glitch consisted of Marks guitar shorting out during the last few seconds of Brown Eyed
Girl due to water spilling on the power cord. The band being as great as they are pressed on through the glitch
like nothing happend! Unfortunatly we were unable to play our signature song As Tall As I Could Be. "It just wasnt meant to
be..." James said satisfied with the overall preformance and a smile on his face. We ended our show one song short,
but memorable as hell! We here in Sunnydale, Ohio would like to thank all our family, friends, and all the other random
people for showing up and screaming your asses off in support for SDO. We love you all. Thanks!

Heres the news.
3/22/05- Hey guys. Keller here.
We got a show on thursday at the White Rabbit. Its at 8:00 and the cover should be about $5. We will be on the third stage
with all the other fairly new bands. Sadly James will not be able to make it, but since we love to play, Rudy from KevinGoes2College
will be sitting in for James. Its gonna be a huge show with lots of great bands so you'll get alot for $5.
3/17/05 - Hey everyone, Mark
here. Wow, lots of good news to report, so lets just get to it! Johnny bought a new bass amp that REALLY booms. Its a vintage halfstack
bass amp. "Acoustic." (Yes that is a brand name.) Its the end of an era let me tell you. Never before have we been able
to hear Johnny when we play. The closest we ever come is hearing his lil' breaks. SDO has reached a turning point
indeed. His amp can get so loud that it shakes the walls of my garage! Keller, not to be out done, bought a Fender
65' Twin Reverb all tube amp. For thoes of you who dont understand "Guitar Talk," think of it as God in a box. The thing is
so loud, that during our first practice with it, Keller nearly blew his eardrums! Its loud. Lets just put it at that. All
we need to do now it learn to equalize our sound and we'll be set. Well, that's that. Finally, the Sunnydale Rec. Room has been
completed! As my spring break project, I decided to make a place where the band can rock in comfort. The garage was the
ideal spot. So I went out and bought a HUGE roll of carpet, (which was a bitch to move lemme say...Had to use some freaky
Jui-Juitsu to move it!) brought in a couch, fridge, TV, and some posters to liven the place up! The SDRR is now done
and ready for a Spring Break Hangover Party. (Which is going to substitute for the lakehouse...its too damn cold!) Info
on Hangover will be coming within the next few days. If your'e keepin in touch with the site, and you know where I live...then
come on down and party with SDO!
3/13/05 - Last nights show
was awesome! Our time was once again, changed due to a band dropping out. We went on at 7:00 instead of 6:15. We opened strong
with Johnny singing lead to our new song Earthbound Misfit which was written by Johnny. His voice was surprisingly strong
and carried the song well. We debuted 3 new songs, Miranda, Earthbound Misfit, and Miles Away, the crowd seemed to enjoy them.
The real knockout punches though came during Cant You See during Keller's crowd raising solo, and during our signature song
As Tall As I Could Be, which resulted in the audience chanting "ONE MORE SONG." 1/12/05 will be remembered as SDO's first
encore preformance. The overall show was good, the encore...well we'll just have to work on that! So many pretty girls at
the show if I may say so myself...
<<Peace out and Rock On>>
