After Jim was volunteered by everyone except him he was chosen to call and break the news to Bee. He did as polite as possible and he got nothing but obsenities from both Bee and his mom (Yes, his mom) And in a rempage his mom barreled to Brads house to get Bees Voice Proccessor. When Philander asked for stuff from Bee that had been borrowed she asked for a $5 fee. So Philander will all pitch in a dollar and buy her card from the sympothy section and it will read "Dear Mrs. Bevilacqua, Heres your $5 that you asked for to get our stuff back, we all know you need it...use it wisely"

4.29.00 - Concert
Well even tho the Joe Terry Center kicked us out and the other 2 bands dropped off we managed to pull off a pretty good concert even with the technical dificulties that happened during the show including: Jims amp/chord screwin up, Bees PA screwin up and basically being in great need of a sound system. In all it was cool and Philander gives a big thanx and sorry for everyone who came to the poor effort for a make up concert. Keep tuned for better concerts that are comin up...
4.25.00 - BAD News
Just when you think Barons name situation is the worste of our problems the Joe Terry Center has canceled our reservations there and will not allow us to play our LONG awaited concert with The Tied Eyes and Baron. And like always of course you know the cops had something to do with it. For more information email me. And if you were a ticket buyer email me with "Philander Tickets" as the subject.
4.18.00 - Not Over Yet!....
Just when you thought everything was done and settled with the band name for Locust/Pestilence/The Barren/Baron it seems that there is already a band named Locust so they are back to Baron.
4.10.00 - The Barren and Pestilence = Locust
Pestilence and The Barren are thrown away and now they have decided to use Locust. Which i think is much better than The Barren but I still kinda like Pestilence better.

3.11.00 - Wiltz telling other side of story
Wiltz just told us a story of someone from the band formaly known as Pestilance coming up to him in a library talking about both bands saying both that we're not their style and we're not good. So you call the shots for your opinion on hwos lying. We kinda Believe Will from the band formaly know as Pestilance's story.
3.10.00 - Pestilance undecided on name
Pestilance wants to get rid of their name and do not have a new name so for now get used to "The band formaly known as Pestilance"
3.6.00 - Pestilance = Good, Steve Wiltz = Bad
Steve Wiltz recently talked shit about Philander and blamed all word on Will Esgro (Manager and Technician...etc. of Pestilance) and after a conversation with Will he states he has not talked to Wiltz in a while nor even like him. So Philander and Pestilance are cool...More to come on fag Steve....
3.3.00 - Philander's Saving Up

Philander has heard rumors about Bee talking major shit about Philander like such quotes as "Screw Philander" and "Yea, Try to find a singer with the balls". The group has been very patient with Bee and he said he would be over Brads house at 5:00 pm and when Jim called Bee at 5:50 and his he was at Amy's house again. More to come about this
2.26.00 - Contraversy within Philander
