I love Toby and JK, but I am so disappointed for them that it has taken so long to get their CD out. Save Me has been on the internet forever...........I want more new stuff. I loved their songs as they were originally written and recorded. The producers have had them remix them and I don't like them as well. December.........what was the original name of that song? I'll still buy the CD and hope to see them in concert but, like mig's, the CD has been too long in the making.

Ya' know, after all this with MiG, with Marty, with JK, it's just like they have all be pretty much scr3wed over by the powers that be (Lovehammers have as much as said this). If the record companies had jumped on things quickly, they would all have had much more success. They all pretty much have had to do way too much on their own. Getting the CD's out quickly, more publicity, striking while the iron is hot, would have been so much better for them all.

There is so much junk out there today being promoted by the labels. It makes me mad that real talent like Toby and Juke Kartel get brushed aside for more 'commercially' appealing (formula) bands.

December was originally called MOney Love and I loved the original version. The 2nd version is good but i thought the first one rocked a little more. When I met Toby I asked why they had changed it and he told me they just wanted it to sound a bit fresher and updated because they had had the song awhile. You guys are so right about the lack of promotion they got after RS? At the peak of those shows, their popularity could have sold so many albums or even a rockstar tour the first eyar would have been helpful. The tour the second year was great but then taking that long to bring out the album-the mo is just left behind and it takes a lot of pushing to get the ball rolling again. The JK fansbase is pretty dynamic. I bet they will really be helpful. Those glow in the dark wristbands they gave out rocked during JK's concerts. The guys felt the love and with so many bands performing it was obvious where the jk love was coming from. People had heard of Toby-not as many had of JK and it was a great way to introduce Toby's band.

Ditto Thanks Wanda. I love Juke and can't wait until their cd drops in September or October. Like MiG, they have had to fight to get recognized. I think they are a fun rocking band.

I love JK. That video though-not so much! MIG's are much better done methinks. Still love JK though.

I gotta agree that Episode 4 was put together like it was being done by a couple of drunk frat boys and I certainly wasn't impressed...Toby tends to be more professional and less loony. I agree, MiG's epidosic things, while funny, were very much more entertaining...

They have changed he words so much. The original version was about a woman who controleed the guy wasn't it and now this seems to be about the guy being controlled by a needle? I can't make out all the words. I think I liked the original words better and it is weird to just see the band members standing there while horrid things are going on around them. Are they supposedly not under their own control and not aware of what is going on? I guess I don't quite get it until they are caught in the quicksand and can't get out. Toby's vocals and the band sounds great.
