ZMA- Ther Republic; Friday January 6th
Forums:
We're getting the band back together for the first time since 12-31-2008.
We're hoping to see the usual suspects, and Cheeks now that you're kind of in San Diego we'd love to have you join us too.
We'll be playing at Stacy's house and we'll probably get the music started around 7pm.
If anybody is interested (Rob PLF99-05, ATGD, Russ, Canyon) shoot me an email so I can get a head count and get you the address.
Should be a blast. [email protected]
Turtle, Gdad and Daughter, and Shabazz, your attendance is mandatory.

I preferred when we used
I preferred when we used mysterio style hype; I believe this is from a PZ thread circa 2004:
All will succumb to the reckless ambition that is the Republic. We live and operate without fear, age or form. Chaos, magic and love are but our only allies. Our intense, fiery vision is driven and led on by the flames of Lord Henry's guitar. Never before have so many musical influences of the past, present and future been fused together with a force only comparable in the physical world to the core of a brightly burning star.
It is through the worship of the artist supreme that we have been brought together by, and risen like the mighty Phoenix from, scattered remnants of the PhilZone, and it is in the shadows of this grand phan forum that our sound shall continue to mature, remanifest and grow. So, to those skeptical readers of this thread out there that stroke their chins, cluck their tounges and blindly ask "who is this Mutherf@#kin' Republic?" I say, you shall see, for WE HAVE ARRIVED!

Thanks for the invite and I'll try my best to make it but won't know until sometime next week when I find out if and where I'll be working on friday and/or saturday. The scheduling with the company I'm working for at the moment is shittier than the normal shitty I'm used to which leaves a lot to be desired.
Sounds like a good time with good people though.

I saw The Republic in early
I saw The Republic in early Jan 2008. KK introduced me to GDad who introduced me to many Zoners that night though I've forgotten who though most of the band. I was the guy who fell asleep on his feat leaning on the pinball machine. I do not remember the venue but it was in La Jolla and date was like Jan 4 or 5 or 11 or 12. I got a ride from Gdad and was very jet lagged . Good sounds and I remember a really good version of Elizaneth Reed or was it Jessica? ?

So I decided to take the player off random and listen to the whole Republic show. I am glad I did as I am once again reminded that The Republic is the best GD cover band I have yet to hear and/or see...unfortunately this "tape" suffers from a few bad cuts in the recording, but the musicianship & love of the material shine through. Even a few original songs thrown in there (way crazy in this modern GD cover band world)...Well done fellas I look forward to catching your updated sound...I even liked the Dark Star which is usually strictly a Jerry tune for me but yours was justice to these jaded ears...

That would b Reed, it was one of our stronger covers and only consistent ABB tune in rotation.
Even though he was one of our biggest supporters, Brent Kliss said it had too much testosterone for his taste.
Didn't get played last reunion so don't b surprised if it shows up friday, hopefully the transitions won't b too rough.
That La Jolla show was one of our first gigs, 2004 I think.
>>>The Republic is the best GD cover band I have yet to hear
That is some high praise, Canyon.
It was a very special project to be a part of for me, the group had great chemistry and amazing setlists.
The combined soulfulness and solid execution of Lord Henry's guitar playing and the vocals of our drummer, Dj really shine on those recordings.
>>>How many new guitars will Stacy have this year? J/k
All kidding aside, Bart, he's got at least one new axe every time I see him.
Dude knows how to use'em too; he's a wiley vet and an exceptional host.
I don't even want to imagine my life having never known Stacy Williams.
On that note, I'm gonna get my last solo prep in for Friday and hit the hay.
Tomorrow it's off to Fresno and beyond!
Friday is going to b very special, even regardless of the music.
I hope all who can attend will and sincerely appreciate the well wishes from those who cannot.
Difficult to say when or even if this band will play again, but one thing's for sure: it would have never formed at all had it not been for the Philzone.org.
Thank U viva for trying keep that spirit alive, this one's for u!
Viva La Zone! Viva Le Republic!
