   The Longnecks: General Info
Member Since1/13/2006
Band Websitethelongnecks.com
Band MembersPete "Droopy Drawers" Johnson - Guitar/Vocals
Pete is a hot blues/rock guitar hero! Drawing from the styles of Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Lee Hooker, and Jimi Hendrix, Pete attacks his guitar with relentless fury, while still exhibiting his own style and creativity. He rocks, he's bluesy, he drops jaws with his guitar solos, and he does a mean Michael Jackson dance!

Eric "2funky" Shears - Bass
Eric is a 4-string thudstick funk train! Eric's main influences are Louis Johnson, Mike Watt, James Jamerson, and Flea, and he brings an unheard of amount of funk and originality to his bass lines (and sometimes bass solos!). Does he play simple quarter root notes? Hell no!

"Dirty" Dan Johnson - Drums
Dan is a rock thundergod! Dan cites John Bonham and Neil Pert as his lofty influences. As Pete's older (and better looking) brother, he brings The Longnecks together with his tight, rock-and-roll drum grooves. Check him out as he lays down the law in his laid back style. Right on!

   About The Longnecks
The Longnecks are a 3-piece original rock band from Spokane, WA. Drawing from rock, blues, funk, and soul, The Longnecks are making waves around the local scene with their energetic shows featuring blazin' guitar rock and shake-your-ass funk.

Lead by guitar virtuoso, Pete "Droopy Drawers " Johnson, The Longnecks play straight-up rock, raunchy blues, smooth soul, and skanky funk...sometimes all in the same song! Pete has been praised by local blues aficionados as an amazing, young blues guitarist...and when they get their rock-your-socks-off groove on, watch out for funky bass solos by band "elder" Eric Shears and the skanky fills by drummer Dan Johnson...this is when they are at their best!

My Name Is Mark I am local musician who has seen the places for music in Spokane fade out... I am working at the Big Foot Pub and Eatery and We are looking for local bands to play some shows. The way this works is the owner is allowing me to book bands for wed.nights. nights AT THIS TIME. If bands show interest and bring in a fair crowd we will get better nights of the week. If your Band is interested please e-mail me a mp3 of one of your songs and a info on your band including phone number and person of contact to bigfootpub@yahoo.com

THE ONLY WAY THIS WORKS IS IF BANDS RESPOND LETS GIVE SPOKANE'S MUSIC A NEW PLACE TO CALL HOME!
