  • Flipp

    One of my favorite bands from MN. I must have seen these guys like a million times around here back in the day. They put on some fucking awesome shows, and noone I know (minus some people who I hung out with back in the day) have ever heard of them...

    Goddamn, the show they put on at Somerset, WI back in like 97 (?) where they got a big ass cessna to drop flipp loops on the crowd was fucking insane. I don't expect anyone to post in this thread, but goddamn, I forgot how much they fucking rock. First show I ever got on stage at, got my ass grabbed by the bass player (who was a dude) and proceeded to front flip on to the crowd and got passed all the way to the back.....I'll never forget that shit. EPIC.

        They also got arrested and fined for that stunt I believe.

          Saw these guys live in Dayton years ago. Friend has a signed poster. Was the bass player's name Cherry something? Lots of talk of 10-finger guitar as I remember. Huge amps for such a little club too.

                    Saw them at market fest once...It was raining and they were throwing food and shit at the crowd who didn't like that much. Not a fan.

                      My firend Brian took a bunch of Promo Photos for them, and I think they worked on a video together... that was a long time ago though. I havent heard of them playing for a long long time.
