Difference between revisions of "Shane Bertrands' Squirt Gun"

Revision as of 19:38, 4 October 2007

Shane Bertrand's Squirt Gun consists of myself, Shane Bertrand. I program the drums(due to the lack of live drums), play all of the bass lines, and perform all of the Hand Squirts. You can listen to my Hand Squirt music by going to: http://myspace.com/shanebertrands39squirtgun
