--> So in 2000 I formed this electro group called "chariots of the gods". It was pretty fuck up! Anyway, I think some people out there will find this interesting, so, I put a little myspace page together for it..
here is a link to it.

here is a little bio
Chariots of the Gods where formed summer 2000 by Evan Morris and William Wheaton at Bard College. As or more so influenced by funk/soul artists such as Rick James, Prince, and Michael Jackson as by white art school favorites Joy Division/New Order, David Bowie,the Velvet Underground, and Suicide. They covered Rick James "Superfreak" and discussed covering Garry Glitter. Chariots of the Gods did not go over well in general at Bard dominated by Wilco immitator bands, a few of who's memembers became the New York band Company. But those who where into the Chariots where obbsessed with them. Evan Morris provided electronic back drop complete with spots of wild improvisation behind occultist and general madman Wheaton, grandson of David Mathewson, the man who invented the M-14. Parodies of Scientology, the Free Tibet movement, cocaine, the art gallery system, and the porn industry showcased the Chariot's sick humour and incorporated. Many people did not get the joke, asusming the songs to be autobiography-Wheaton's heavy drug period was largely behind him, and Evan Morris hadn't ever used cocaine. However, many of the Chariots bizzare references wheren't completely jokes- Evan was a strong believer in UFOs, and William was very much involved with the occult at that point. Evan Morris went on to do solo electronica, William Wheaton is a fiction author now. Since Evan Morris and William Wheaton have had succeses in other careers now, the time has come for releasing this material. One of the most fucked up rock and roll bands EVER!

ah Bard, im looking at applying there. it looks like a good school.

It's great but, it really isn't has crazy as it use to be. Less freaks, more normal people and less free beer.

less free beer! blasphemy!
