O, What A Tangled Web We Weave.....

If you were listening to BeachFront Radio's live poolside broadcast from Jan and Wayne's resort-like back yard in Phoenix yesterday, you heard DJ Jeff and Crime Dog announce that The Desert Island Band's surprise "best kept secret in TropRock" debut CD release would be on Tuesday. DJ Jeff even posted a photo (above) of the CD on BeachFront's page, but the only thing inside that case was hot air.

Many called "shenanigans" immediately, others took the proverbial hook, line, and sinker. Still others are not admitting they were taken in, opting instead for "Ah, I knew all along!" approach, but everyone seems to have had a good laugh, and for that, we are grateful!

Now, what is NOT a shenanigan is that the guys are in the early stages of putting together a CD of nearly all original music, tweaking their songs and looking for hooks, but we will at best only have a demo ready by Phins To the West. So hang in there, Desert Island Nation!

Oh, and we also wish to happily announce that the Desert Island Band WILL in fact be performing at Phins To the West next month. We're not sure when or where at the event we'll be playing, so just stay with us here and at our website for more information as it becomes available.
