Update 3/25/2007: Still rockin! The above shot was taken at the '07 Boston Harbor Rockin' Auction. CBS TV was there again. We all had a great time -- the dancers were terrific!

Update 3/20/2007: The more things change... Congrats to Andy Etue and Sarah on the birth of their second child! The Blame alumnus Dan Srsen will be filling in for Andy while he spends quality time with his family.

Update 9/22/2005: We've been busy! We've expanded the photos section. The calendar appears to have been sadly neglected, but the reason is we don't show private parties there. Perhaps in 2006 we'll do a few more public shows. If you're in charge of entertainment for a northwest street fair, music festival or other large event, drop us a line!

Update 4/28/2005: We enjoyed seeing our old friends -- and making new ones, too -- at the Seattle Vintage Guitar Show. Thanks to The Blame Productions for hooking us up. We heard a rumour that Brett actually sold three of his babies (including a 70's Fender Strat®) there!

Update 9/30/2004: We want to thank everyone for coming out to hear us at Boeing Field last weekend. We had a blast, and from your comments, you had a great time, too.

Update 9/9/2004: Our new site is up and running! Thanks for telling your friends about us. We appreciate your support.

Update 9/8/2004: Photos load much faster now. We realize that not everyone has a high-speed Internet connection. Now there's no excuse for you not to enjoy The EXCUSES and their web site!

Update 9/4/2004: We're in the midst of a much-needed site overhaul. Lots of new stuff is going online.

Update 5/2/2004: Photos - photos - photos. The Excuses are caught in the act! Check out our new photo pages!

We also want to welcome Mike Keeling as our new wizard of sound.
