so yeah back in the day i was a big punk rocker.......

not the best band in the world - but fun, and always had a great time at their shows.....probably saw them a million times circa '95-'97

here is some kick ass news for those that care...cant wait to hear some new stuff!!!!

Quote:
Thanks for checking out our new website! Well, to end the speculation, The Bollweevils reunion at Riot Fest 2006 wasn’t a one-off deal and we’re all super stoked to say that we’re a band again!

Playing in front of all of you and playing as a band again was too much of an awesome feeling for us not to continue and we’re happy to announce, as many of you already know, our first set of shows of the year. On Friday, April 27th at the House of Blues in Chicago we’ll be playing two shows with our friends Naked Raygun. The first show (All-ages) will also feature Chicago pals The Effigies and Shot Baker and the second show (18+) will also feature Dillinger Four. What a way to come back!! From what we know, the shows are almost sold-out, so don’t wait to get your tickets!

Besides on planning on more shows in ’07, we are indeed coming out with some new releases. The first of which will be our live performance at Riot Fest 2006 on Riot Fest Records and if you think “Weevil Live” kicked some major ass, wait until you hear this! Of course, we’re going to keep some stuff secret for now, but, we will say this: the new live album is just an appetizer for things to come.
Anyways, come back and check out the site often as we will be adding more photos, updating our discography and adding even more merch!!
See you guys all soon!

Your brothers,
The Bollweevils

I saw them open for Pegboy at the Vic in 1994.
Then, we went over to Lounge Ax to see Jeff Tweedy's new band play theor first show.

Bollweevils were pretty good.
Fun, kinda like The Screamin' Watusis. I think of those two bands in the same way.
