STREET TEAM - "UNIVERSAL SOLDIERS"
As always if you wanna help out and do street team (myspace promo, hanging up posters, handing out flyers, etc) in return for free tix and merch shoot us a message back. Be friends with the street team on myspace: click here

IF YOU GO TO COLLEGE AND WANT US TO PLAY THERE...LET US KNOW AND WE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

Come ROC out and have a good time, and say what's up.

See you soon!

P.S. Sorry if you got this by mistake or it annoyed you. Just block our myspace account if you don't want to ever recieve a message from us ever again.

This kind of thing is what separates bands with talent from bands with talent and fans. These guys tour constantly, and make a special effort to be right in it with their fans. So much so that they're going to do yoga and go hiking with them! Their fans are their friends!

If you're planning to start a band and you actually care if people come to see you, take a cue from Roots of Creation. This is what it takes.
