These are a great 3-piece
punk rock band from Dundalk in Ireland. They are currently in the process of
doing photo shoots, and have just signed a new management deal with
some american company (I think it is Walt Disney Studios). Lloyd was living with
Colin and Alan from 'The Gurriers' for a couple of months. It was a great house
for parties and the boys know how to drink. Pictures can be seen in the
photo section from different nights in the house.

'The Revs' are a Donegal based band but are
based in Dublin, Ireland most of the time now. Aidan, from 'This Way
Down', played with 'The
Revs' guitarist John McIntire for many years in a band called 'Still Life' along
with Stewart Agnew and Vincent McKevitt. The Revs are starting to do really well,
playing at Witness and releasing a few singles, one of which got to 15 in the
Irish charts. They supported 'Wheatus' in Dublin recently and done the music for
'Disney on Ice'. There is also talk of them supporting 'Weezer' on there
American tour. They have released a new live album which is excellent and is
currently at number 5 in the charts. The Revs headed to the US on Wedenesday and
they will then be heading on to Australia. They are travelling to Thiland where
they are doing some recording.
