Make us an offer, and if we can afford to do it, we will! :)

When will the new album be released??!

We have dozens of new songs to work on, but no idea when they will be ready to release. SO the short answer is "When its done." :)

Why can't I buy the 1st two 8bw albums anymore?

Probably because the first two albums, "Confidential" and" Official Bootleg", were never sold! They were promotion pieces to get gigs or to give to friends. That being said "Confidential 2.0" may be released mid 2007!

Can I get the phone numbers of ComputeHer and MelBot?

Nope! LOL!
