BLUEHEELS 100% independent, mid-west raised rock n' roll. Creative, fun, LOUD, and stylistically diverse rock music for all walks of life. A train wreck in the people's key.



A few years back, we lost control of the login to this very myspace page due to a major personnel shift in the Blueheels camp. Repeated attempts to gain access were denied, and the band was unsure of how to proceed. The communication breakdown we experienced even included (but was not limited to) a breakdown between the band and myspace itself! The going got tough, and in our darkest hour we are sad to admit that we simply gave up hope. We started a new page at WWW.MYSPACE.COM/BLUEHEELSROCKNROLL and a website at WWW.BLUEHEELS.NET. We were forced to be content to let this page fade away into obscurity.



Fast forward to November 6th 2009: Blueheels Independence Day! The battle was long and hard (actually it was quite easy thanks to the newly rejuvenated Myspace customer service staff) but we have finally emerged victorious! Blueheels are once again masters of our own domain (well except for the ASSHOLES that are holding www.blueheels.com hostage for big bucks). Why not click on that link and send them a little message about how they should sell it to us a reasonable price?



We are unsure of exactly what we will do with our newly regained power here at www.myspace.com/blueheels, but rest assured it will be used for only good. Who knows? We may decide to use this domain as a showcase for Blueheels' side projects such as "Dudes With Homes", "Versus The Magnet" or possibly "Robby Schiller And The Achilles Heel". Or maybe not. The choice is finally ours again and we could not be happier!



Thanks so much for your continued support! Check back sometime to see what we are up to, and please:



TO ANYONE WHO HAS SENT A MESSAGE TO THIS PAGE OVER THE PAST TWO PLUS YEARS AND NOT GOTTEN A RESPONSE: Please give us another chance and send us a message at BOOKING@BLUEHEELS.NET



Thanks,

"I cant wait for these guys to go public; Im buying stock!"-Dave Cieslewicz (Mayor of Madison, WI)“A contender in the ever-evolving fight which shall inevitably force country, rock, and even punk to finally face one another and come to some kind of compromise. Listen to this record. Its worth your time to engrave this music into your memory.” –Craig Grossman of Green Room Booking (Honey Dogs, Charlie Parr, and Dressy Bessy)
