september 15, 2003 - ah, downsoul has been preparing for the 602 north show for a bit now, and we have kept a very few
old songs, and have come up with a few new ones, as well as two surprise covers, one being quite a big surprise. we
also have a few new songs being worked on for future shows. we hope you enjoy all the things to come, and that you all
make it to our shows and support the downsoul mob. have fun you all, and i will see you all on sunday, and look forward
to possibly getting your very own downsoul sticker, and soon shirts, merry christmas.
september 3, 2003 - hell has frozen over, after a long time of oddities and other bands and mishaps, downsoul...
the band you either loved or hated (most hated or should have hated)... has returned! what an amazing day this is.
now with a replacement for jeff of the all mighty dousche, and an addition of a bassist known as skitz, and even the possible
occasional apperances of a flying cat which will take over the world. yes this band is being led to the top by a flying
cat named bibo el gato and the infamous sancho! so who can stop us? we are gods, we've been down, and now our
souls rise to the top, the top of the charts, the top of the downsoul. yes, however gay that was, i have said it, ha
ha ha, and oh yes, this just in, i love melanie, so back off all you downsoul groupies, there's many other great members to
have. yes, good day, from sancho
june 3, 2003 - well, there are two new fun clubs to join on message board. just click and reply to them and you
too can join fun clubs provided by the lovely members of downsoul. haha, jen jen jen...
may 21, 2003 - well, another concert has come and gone. i would like to thank all of you who showed up and supported
us. as many of you who were there could probably tell, there were a few difficulties with my drumset, which caused me
to give up and just, do whatever i wanted. but that's fun for me, so it should be fun for everyone. i am sorry
for making this show not up to downsoul, quality, but i promiss that i am and have been saving up every penny (literally),
and i will buy the needed items in order to avoid such incidents. we will also be trying to make the music a little
more that it is now, i believe that many more of you will like it when you hear it. also we will be recording a demo
this weekend, so be on the lookout for that. goodnight to all of you
ruddz
may 9, 2003 - well there, i just got back from promoting at the from zero show at the metro, it's actually saturday by
now, but yeah, i'm a lazy bastard. anyway, of course everyone was there, and by everyone i mean practically no one except
for a few of our good friends. the clown was there though... ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! ok, that's better. but anyways,
luckily scarlet was passing out flyers with us for the may 11th show, and i believe everyone that got one will now go because
she was singing as she passed them out. what u ask... i'll tell you. "i see london, i see france, scarlet aint got no
underpants." and she wasn't either. and with the exception of a little medical incident, the night went pretty
good, except for that damn window at mcdonalds, damn u luke! ps. if u are reading this luke, your dad called my cell
while i was on the way home and confused the shit out of me. but yeah, i'm done cauz i'm lazy, so yeah, fun night, hope
to see a lot of you on sunday. ciao
ruddz
may 8, 2003 - it is now thursday night at 9:00 pm, and i, ruddz, have finally finished the new site.
granted the pictures are not on the site, which makes it quite a bit worse, the technical difficulties which we are being
given force us to release this before planned upon. i will be adding those as soon as possible. anyways, we recently
started off garage fest with a dynamic preformance. it was a magical event, even though someone stripped barlow's thirty
buck chord. of course the traditional celebration had to occur afterwords, so we went to chang jang buffet. but
anyways, all the bands played great, sir bastards, i always loved them, best i've ever heard them, rancor, amazing, especially
'wrinkled soul', spoiled rotten, always great, we'll see you on sunday when we're all playing at the superbowl, tregos, thanks
for giving us the opportunity, putting on a great show, and all, and ending it off, paul and his band, sure fire, amazing
preformance, great turn out... cough cough... and great show. we hope to play with all of you again soon. also
thanks to people for recording such as panic, steve salty, briana, and of course... MRS. B! thanks to all of you who
supported the event, especially those who supported downsoul too. and finally thanks to mike and ray from swidden for
showing up even though they missed us playing. shit, i've gone on way too long, so i will leave you now, good day
ruddz
