Flooring the Crowds

By: Kathleen De Vere

Floored’s message is that
normalcy is the disease of
our generation, and that
shows in their music, seeing
as how it’s anything but nor-
mal. Floored consists of
singer Scotty Dunbar, gui-
tarist Jeremy Breaks, Mike
Vanderlanse on bass, drum-
mer Cory Roderick, and their
newest asset DJ Weasel on
turntables. They rocked the
crowd at the forth annual
Battle of the Bands on
January 9th 2002, and won
the event taking away the
prize of being the opening
band at next years Backyard
BBQ.

Floored have enjoyed local
success and popularity, even
touring with the Swollen
Members, since they formed
just over a year ago. DJ

Weasel only recently joined
Floored, but he finished their
lineup with the addition of
scratching to their already
tight sound. “We always
wanted scratching, but it took
us a while to find the right
man,” vocalist Scotty says of
their newest member. The
crowd seemed to approve of
the addition at the Battle of
the Bands, with Floored easi-
ly getting the biggest reaction
all evening. When asked if
they wanted to say anything,
they modestly _ replied,
“Thanks to NUGSS and the
X, and thanks to all the other
bands, they were awesome.”

If you missed Floored’s
performance, or just want to
see more of them, you can
catch them at the Metro on
January 28th.
