Red Tape - Tours & Line-up changes

A big bombshell dropped on the RED TAPE camp when our beloved drummer J.D. had to call it quits after this last tour. JD's wife Jen -who is also Twig's sister, is having their 2nd kid this month! We respect and understand JD's strong commitment to his awesome family and he will remain a close friend.

We had about a month or 2 of advance notice on this, so we were calling up fools left and right... cuz a good drummer that can tour and doesn't smoke rock is damn near impossible to find -epecially in Sacramento. We narrowed it down to a few fucks that had tha dope rèsumè, and the jamming began. In the end, 1 kid ruled them all...

Meet Eric H. -our new drummer. ha.

So we SHOULD be on tour in Europe right now... Unfortunately we had to cancel off of the DECONSTRUCTION TOUR in Europe. We just couldn't afford it!$!$!$!!!! -ouch! So sorry to our comrades on the other side of the lake -we vow to book a European Tour as soon as possible! Our plan is to hit up small clubs in the UK, Germany, & Holland in a cheap mini-van and play with local bands there. Hey, so if you live in UK/DE/NL, and got info on clubs in your area you think we could play, send us the info at R3DTAP3@HOTMAIL.COM -thanks.

So with new van and new drummer in hand, we carry on... starting with a nice little tour with the legendary 7SECONDS and our homiez PIPEDOWN! The a local Nor Cal gig with DEATH BY STEREO... check the updates these pages: SHOWS, LINKS, and PHOTOS.
