The New Wassabi Collective

[Jay Funk Dawg]

Wassabi Collective have changed their line-up to include virtuoso bass player "Cormies." Scott Milne, the band's original bass player is stepping down to focus on the band's business side. This new team is now recording a follow-up to their "Stories Not Forgotten" CD and will be touring Canada and the US in 2009. Wassabi was also nominated for 5 interior BC Independent Music Awards.

I'm so glad! I have a wassabi deficit in my system. I have a big back yard in the country near dover, i think they should come play my house!

[Ol'Hickster]

Party at Bokonons

Why call them the "new" Wassabi? If they added a "new" everytime they made a change, they'd be somewhere around the "new new new new new Wassabi Collective give or take a new or two. They make more changes than BNB take breaks.

Zing!

We ARE currently on break.

[balogna pogna]

We ARE currently on break.

Maybe it's time for a comeback? The New New New Burt Neilson Band anyone?

[GUITARZAN]

....three hour shows are tiring at our age...a year off between shows prevents injuries

[Sheebs]

no doubt, you guys are kinda old

heheheh

[ersh]

You see Shelby, myself being younger than Mike, I can accept that statement. But although he initiated the joke, you may have just crushed his reality. Age is no joking matter. Especially at our age.

[balogna pogna]

You've aged.

[Sheebs]

sorry guys, I hope you guys won't break up over this.

[Sarahbelle]

can't wait to see them again.. I miss the sweet sounds of wassabi in these parts..

[nattyMatty]

If ya don't have tickets, Still come. Its going to be Magical.

[bokonon]

sorry guys, I hope you guys won't break up over this.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!! HILARIOUS!!

[Jay Funk Dawg]

who's in the new new Burt Neilson Band?

maybe Garth Hudson would join!

[Schwa.]

This band reminds me of GnR now. 1 original person in the band, yet they keep the name? Lame.

[nattyMatty]

GnR reminds me of Buckethead.

[balogna pogna]

I heard Buckethead broke up........

[Jay Funk Dawg]

in any case ...they sound better than ever

[Schwa.]

not meaning to shoot down the promotion jay, just a VERY popular observation is all.

[nattyMatty]

I saw Buckethead play with Les Claypol.. It was Awsome.. I wonder what US dates Wassabi is going to play mabe they wanna play Cumberland Maryland. I know a "The Blue Stone tavern" would take them.
