Band Biographies-
Autobiography
– Well, what to say about myself? Anyone coming to this page probably knows me
already, and there is not too much more to myself than that. Or IS there???
No,
I don’t think so.
Instrumentation
- Blue Fender Mexican Stratocaster, running into an Ibanez Smash-Box and a
Crate GFX212T.
Favorite
Song - Rhapsody in Blue by George Gershwin
Inspiration
- Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Rivers Cuomo.
Eriq
Mirowitz
Autobiography
- My name is Eriq (pronounced like Eric) and I too go to Corona del Mar High
School (even though nobody else has previously stated so). I am 15 and I
am going to be 16 in October. I play something like 12 different
instruments, but my primaries are Piano, Trombone, Bass, Baritone, and
Percussion. I play trombone in the Jazz band with Mik and Halvey. I
am also an avid hockey player, I am on 3 teams, one if which is the CdM Sea
Kings (Varsity). We are pretty much dominating the varsity B
league. I am also on the CPH Adult Red Team which is composed primarily
of ex-NHL players. My third team is a Bantam Club team called the Ratz. We're
pretty damn good. I recently constructed my own Bass amp out of two other bass
amps and it is pretty cool, yeah. I have a car, woo-hoo! It's a 1994 Ford
Taurus GL and it is absolutely kick ass...almost. I still have some mods in
mind, but yeah.
Instrumentation
- Midnight Wine Fender Standard Jazz Bass and MCA (Mirowitz Custom Amp) 215
Bass amp (made out of a stolen Peavy keyboard amp and a stolen Crate bass
amp). Also the proud owner of a Squier 4 PA system am I. That includes
the JBL kick ass speaker I got for $100.
Favorite
Song - Hungarian Rhapsody #2 by Franz Liszt
Inspiration
- I can't remember that far into my past, you see I have this condition, I
can't make new memories...
ERIC
HALVORSEN (HALVEY (HALVEYBABY))
Autobiography
- People call my Halvey, it's short for Halvorsen. I have lived in Newport
Beach my whole life and I have a plot to take over the world with
mind-controlled crabs. My favorite words are Face, Kamehameha, No, Bye, and
Yeah. I play golf for myself and the grass, because it loves me very much. And
I beat Tiger Woods! WOO-HOO! (on Tiger Woods PGA tour 2002)
Instrumentation
- Kima Toms and Bass drum, Zildjian 16" Avedis Crash, Zildjian 14"
Custom A Crash, Paiste 502 20" ride, Paiste 302 14" High Hat, Pearl

SCHEDULE-
September
14th- Calverson Community Band Played at Mik's Mom's Eid Party, in an acoustic fashion. It went well except only a few people listened to us (Divya, Sylvia, Navpreet, Faisal, probably some other people,) and they could barely hear us because of all the other people making so much noise socializing and such! oh well. That's just the way it works...-Calverson Community Band is playing for Eric’s mom’s company’s
outdoor party. On a stage! Woo Hoo! - [UPDATE]--> played the first half of the setlist and then...SNAP no more 6th string on Mik's guitar, we had to stop, but up until that point, WE WERE ROCKIN THE JOINT!
Other
than that? Unemployed…
If
you want us to play for you, email either Mik, Eric or Halvey, at (mcurrim@yahoo.com, mrbadduck@yahoo.com, or halvey@cox.net) or, better yet, call us if you
have our numbers.
