Monday October 24th, 2005 For those
of you who do not know... up until now COLLIDE has been a studio
band content to live within the walls of their studio creating
music. After eleven years of making music and releasing CDs, the
constant question of "would they ever play live?" began
to haunt us. We really had no idea what it would
be like to finally bring our music to life. |
