Homer Hiccolm and the Rocket Boys
Here is a very cool band that you probably have not heard of yet. Homer Hiccolm and The Rocket Boys. Think Minus the Bear meets Explosions in the sky. For most of you that probably means nothing. Said a different way: It's cool ambient guitar rock. These guys are really good. I think you might diggy.
For all of you who are living in the great city of Albukracky, our home grown band, Soular, is going to be doing a show with Homer and the boys on Oct 12th at the Launchpad. This should be considered a must see show.
Speaking of Soular... They are trying to win a contest to get the chance to play at The Austin City Limits music festival. If you are a fan you can go here and vote for them.

As for the seemingly weird name--check out October Sky (the movie) or Rocket Boys (the memoir) by Homer Hickam.
Have you seen that movie? Seriously good movie. cool soundtrack.
I wonder how they can use the name without copyright violation? (sorry - I'm so into "rules" !
That's because The Band is actually friends with the real Homer Hickam. Check out Homer Hickam's MySpace and you'll see.
