(Janaury 2004)
What you see here is a shrine. Meaning the band no longer exists. However, the music certainly does and the musicians live on. Therefore, this site is just a symbol.. like a statue dedicated to some European Explorer that lands in a country and kills everyone in the name of a king or something. Wait.. no.. this is different.
OCG was a band... nevermind the specifics.. it involved ska. Browse around the site, but please remember - you cannot buy anything.. there is no merch.. no cd's.. its all gone. Try Ebay. Oh, and definately keep sharing the music online and off. You can bet we do.
I won't try to summarize what everybody is up to, though some of us do keep in touch. You can bet music is still a big part of our lives, and we have great memories thanks to great fans.
If you're in the Hoboken area you might catch Nick playing. If you're in the Amsterdam area you might catch Mark playing. If you're in the Summit area you might catch Dave and Mike, throwin a party.. The list goes on, you get the idea.
If you liked our music and are curious, please check out projects we're involved in:
Most of us still record with the old gang from Catch-22, a CD was released in January '02 and they can't seem to keep it in stock. The group is called Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution and the music is beautiful. Go check it out and say hi to Tom.
As always also keep an eye out for Midtown, much respect to those boys.
peace unto you- Mark OCG
