   About The Laymen
The Laymen are - obviously- a Vegas band. The band starts and ends on the premise that friends can come together and do something that matters, even if it is only for them. Similar musical interests brought them together, and a desire to expand the ideas of those that came before propels them forward. Also, they love rock 'n' roll, but shouldn't everyone? Shouldn't someone else be writing this? Shouldn't we have more friends by now? The Laymen do not take themselves seriously, but they are serious about the music. At the end of the day, they want you to know that they're good at what they do, even if you don't like it.   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Your votes and crowd response can help push us through to the next of the 3 rounds of this competition and one step closer to the $10,000 prize, Hope to see you ALL there. Thanks.

barker ranch bitch!
Quote from the journal of Manson Family killer Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme:
Barker Ranch

"We are at Barker's now, sneaked in at dusk. It feels good here all in one room, all in one circle. We're dusty brown and smoothly tough, with cactus cut hands of lizard scale and sun. The feeling is animal, of wind and rough ground under our feet, and real. We can't stay here at Barker's. There's too many of us. We are hunted. So tonight we dig."
