Revision as of 12:05, 22 December 2006
Christopher Walken Overdrive (also known as CWO) was originally conceived August 27, 2004 at Foxes in Moorhead, MN over a pitcher of Coors Lite by Ryan Haugland, Fred Frenzel and Donovan Stewart. CWO formed around September/October 2004. Ryan Haugland (who also played drums with Sub Rosa), played one show and moved to Lawrence, KS. Patrick Meyers was brought in to fill the spot. Patrick moved to Austin, TX in the Fall of 2005. James Riccigliano, (formerly of the band Unlern) currently holds the covetted drummer slot. Currently they are practicing and awaiting a final mix of their debut coaster, "Music Yo Get Drilled To". Local glitteratti and socialite Eric "The Beer" Hills is "producing".
Some of our songs are available online at our myspace. We are starting to play shows again after nearly an entire year of practicing, writing, bickering, fighting, crying and drinking way too much. Arise chicken.
