I have never heard this band either, but this was on the wikipedia:

"Probe records released a 7" which was made to look as if it were a split between Hickey and the Voodoo Glow Skulls. On one side of the 7" was the Hickey song "Food Stamps and Drink Tickets" and the other side members of Hickey played the trumpet that was stolen from Voodoo Glow Skulls over the answering machine messages left by Voodoo Glow Skulls members and Epitaph Records employees demanding the return of the instrument. The 7" also falsely had the Epitaph Records logo on the back as Epitaph had no official part in the release.

According to the zine included with the 7" the two bands played together at the now closed Nile Theater in Mesa, Arizona. Matty Luv, singer of Hickey, made disparaging remarks about Epitaph Records and the commercialization of punk. After members of both bands had a confrontation, the Voodoo Glow Skulls convinced the venue owner to eject Hickey without pay. In response, Hickey stole the trumpet in question out of the Voodoo Glow Skulls van.

After receiving threatening messages on their answering machine, Hickey filled the trumpet with pudding[citation needed] and returned"

kinda rad.

I have the 7 inch. yes they are A band that changed my life.

The Hickey song is called Foodstamps and drink tickets cause thats all they made at the Nile that night. Corey kicked them out with no pay and they leftand went to a GWar show that was in the valley that night.

I'm on a chick lead vox kick.

I'm not the biggest fan of chick singers, but man the Besties were great when I saw them last month. Lemuria is always great!

I'm a fan of GOOD chick singers.

That sounds like a fun time, sorta. In reference to the Hickey story.

I don't really like girl singers, i do, but not really.

Jesus christ. Awesome choices both. Think I'll listen to both today as well.

Also:

Corey kicked them out with no pay

SHOCKER!!!! And the reason, likely to my band's detriment, I never played the Nile after about its first year in existence.

Matt, I saw Silversun Pickups this weekend and they were so fucking good. They were someone I got stoked on but it kind of drifted away but after seeing them live I can't wait to hear this record.

Also, My Bloody Valentine is the loudest most awesome thing I've ever witnessed
