April 8, 2006 - Wow its been months since I put anything on this page. Well things for us are going pretty good. We participated in a local DVD recording which will be sent to Interscope records for review. In the DVD 8 bands were chosen and each will have two songs on the DVD.

I've also added a cool stuff page to the site. I will upload different stuff on it just to keep things interesting here.

If ya hadn't noticed, our old message board is no more, I'm working on getting another one started that doesn't have addware attached to it, but for now I have a temporary board up.

Nov 20, 2005 - As most of you may know, there's been some changes in NEMESIS. Allen Kimble has moved to Florida to marry the love of his life. We wish Allen and Fly Girl all the happiness in the world in their new life together.

And to fill the slot we would like to welcome Jeff Cust in the band. Jeff has played in the powerhouse bands Lift 6 eighteen and Down from Zero.

We are still playing shows and in the process of writing new material, so look for some new tunes in the near future.

We are also in the process of revamping the web site to give it a new fresh look. So check back often and tell us what you think.

Sept 1, 2005 - What's up people? We hope everybody had a good week and are ready to get the party started!!

April 6, 2005 - As most of you already know, Nemesis has been selected to play a showcase in Orlando, Florida called to Florida Music Festival. We received an email with the news last week. A little of the email is as follows:

" First and foremost, a panel of regional media, industry A&R,
management and attorneys, along with the staff of the Florida
Music Festival and Conference, would like to congratulate you on
being selected to SHOWCASE at the FMF2005 event. With more than 1200 submissions, it was difficult to narrow the playing field to
only 200 Showcasing Artists, yet your recordings, overall
presentation and work ethic have proven your project to be
prepared to take that next step................ "

Nemesis really had a busy weekend. 4 gigs in 2 day in two states. God, we really need roadies. We played a benefit in NC. The rain tried to slow things down, but we didn't let that stop us. Made a lot of new friends down there. We also made our first appearance at Club Live. Thanks Morey. Lets do it again!!! The other 2 shows were our home - Gils and Pockets. We're off this upcoming weekend, So see everybody 4/15 @ Gils.

Feb 20, 2005 - Hello all, last night turned out pretty good considering the way it began. We had some serious electrical issues at Pockets which ended up blowing up Bruces' bass head and giving Lucky some serious jolts of electricity. Smoke coming out of his ears and everything. Kinda funny. Thank God for our fans. You guys are the greatest and we appreciate you so much, especially when things go like they did last night. We've entered 'Believe' in the reviewing contest on Garageband.com today. It'll be interesting to see how it does. We're looking forward to next week when we get together with our good friends Conflict of Interest @ Gil's. It's been a long time since we've partied with them. We should be hearing the lineup for the Florida Music Festival soon.
