Rifles At Recess disbanded after a month-long west coast tour in the summer of 2003.



Since then, several of the guys have went on to be in other bands. Kyle (Mims, the drummer from the demo) is now playing with Evergreen Terrace and keepin' it real like Mark does. Andrew (Hall, drummer from the Tribunal release) went on to drum for The Showdown, but has decided after recording their second album to depart.

More to come.until then, go buy the album!!!

REUNION SHOW VIDEOS



.



A few of the great comments our friends and fans have left us over the years :

"you guys did absolutely incredible tonight.

i don't think any band could possibly go out as amazing as you guys did.

you guys played at the first show that i ever went to, it was at this little place called the youth board in whitesburg, ky.

rifles at recess was mainly the band that got me into going to shows and stuff like that, and every now and then i still put in that damned 4 song demo from so long ago.

this reunion show was the fucking best show that i've ever been to."



"I didn't really get a chance to tell of you guys thanks. If it weren't for you, I would know nothing of this music. Before you guys I listened to bullshit. The first time I heard you, I wanted to go see you and then someone told me you guys weren't a band anymore. But after tonight, I now know what it's all about. The show tonight was more fun than I have had in a long time. Thank you guys for introducing me to this music community and the contributions that you have made to making it what it is today. The show was fucking amazing, and something that I will remember for all time. You dudes are really my favorite band, tonight the war got restarted, but it will never die again. Thanks again guys."



"Thank you immensely for allowing me to be a part of your last show. I had a (stressful) blast filling in. I couldn't have asked for a more amazing event than last night. You guys are seriously one of my number one influences as far as heavy music goes and I honestly wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for you."



"chads gay "



"to say it breaks my heart that i wasn't there tonight, is a huge understatement (chad knows this). you guys are the only CD of my over 300 that has been in my car since i got it, a few years ago. Maybe luck will go my way, and you will play again in the future, who knows. But i love you guys, and your music. "



"Thank You Guys So Much for this last show

i have so much respect for all of you and alot for robby period ill never forget this as long as i live

peace

ps: the kid that didnt know all the words"



Our friends and fans of our music are proof that this world is not entirely rotted. Thank you.
