1/30/2011 - It has been some years since BOSS TRIBAL has updated this web site. 
5 years to be exact. Due to the rise and fall of myspace, where you can find 
www.myspace.com/bosstribal as that link, and now facebook, and all the other 
social networking sites, things never really got updated. Not to mention, a
slew of changing members (as always). Boss Tribal now hasn't reared it's ugly 
head within almost 2 years. The band still exists, but is in need of a major 
face-lift. We have a new drummer Josh Grandits, and as always, I, Mark Miller 
a.k.a. MADD DOGG, are in the band. We have been searching for new member and
trying to keep this moving best we can. In the mean time, I (Mark), hav been
doing a solo hip hop project called Emcee M.D. which you can find on the website
www.reverbnation.com/emceemd ...The plans for this site are such: It will be
updated, pictures of current and former members swapped out, links to mp3s for
download. And lots of other site work. However, this site will not be existent
when we finally get up a new web page with a better, more up to date feel. It is
hopeful that in this year BOSS TRIBAL will be back as a band again, and ready
to go. Thanks for anyone who has seen us in the past, if anyone still travels here,
amazing.


4/5/06 - We never thought this would happen from last time but, WE ARE PLAYING
WARPED TOUR AGAIN. Haha, to not get arrested or not be able to play, there will be
no throwing of meat or meat bi-products. We will however put on the best show ever
possible. Definitly keep you posted. Also, WE NEED A DRUMMER, we don't want to
use any fill ins if we can help it. GET IN TOUCH!


3/28/06 - Keeping this short and sweet. The show the band played with Folly
was pretty killer. It was a good time and the band did great. As for what is going
on now. Tim Schrock has now left the band due to musical and personal
differances. Old guitarist Derek Knop has been jaming out, and so is a few other
guitar players. Hopefully all will be ok with the band soon to find the members
they need. If anyone is a drummer who is looking to try out, please let us know.


12/6/05 - Good luck has been cast upon us. It looks like the band will soon
become once again on track with perminant members, and be a good functioning
unit. We have just enducted Ben Ksarda, an INCREDIBLE giotar player into the
band, plus what is also somthing very very good for us, Chris Kiebzak we
have also once again have on bass. A switch has also happened. Tim is now going
to be playing the drums, and Josh is going to be playing sax! That's right...
HORNS BABY! We are also trying out some more people for other instruments
as well (a 2nd guitarist and trumpet). Things will be looking up very very
soon for shows and other things. Keep you guys posted!


11/4/05 - Rock and fucking roll! Things are going pretty decent for the band at
the moment. We're right now accustimating our practices sheduals and all that
happy horse shit so we can spend some time on writting new songs and reworking
some of the old ones. We're still searching for some band members here and
there too, but doing good with that. Keep in touch if you know anyone who
wants to try out, the possitions are on the main page.
         We just played DEATHFEST 6 in which we had 1 hell of a time. The
line up was definitly a fun 1, with 6 BT members in context: Mike Zwelling
was on 1 guitar (helping the boys out for the show), Andrew Hefner (of Lost
Cause) on another guitar, Mark Mutka (from Limited Identity / Edisen /
Unspoken Promisses) on bass, Josh Nichter did half the set on drums, the other
half was done by Tim Shrock who also during the first half did some trumpet,
and of coarse Mark miller on vocals. Tim flew back home just to play this show...
it was awesome. The band started playing this bluesy intro to play a little
joke on Mark for his b-day. Josh nichter was the drummer for this part of
the set. It was definitly funny stuff. Right after the band kicked in gear
with Blood, Bitches, And Booze. Right after they nailed up Stealing Skulls, 
always a good skateboarding jam. Tim then took over the drums, in which the
band executed The Art Of Drunken Master... the rock filled everyone's eardrums
with the wonderful "swing dance with butcherknives" feel. kids singing along,
it was intense. Finally the last song of the night was DRINK! FUCK! KILL!
DESTROY!, in which had not been played so good in such a very very long time.
This show was probobly 1 of the most fun BT shows in a while for the band
themselves. it is unsure what the status of Andrew hefner if he will continue
on with us, but hopefully he shall and become a great part of this band. More
on that in time. Untill then, stay tuned!


10/7/05 - Hey everyone. It's been a while since this site has been updated but
once again it shall be more concentrated upon. Lots of stuff is going on.
We now have a new drummer, his name is Josh Nicter (formerly the drummer of
the ska punk band Premium Benji). Definitly 1 hell of a dude. Also Chris Kiebzak
and Mike Zwelling are no longer in the band, they both left on good terms. We
do however have some people trying for positions so that's a plus. Chris and
Mike played 1 final show in August, it was with our boys Folly, along with
Chiodos and Still Life Projector. It was an ok show minus the fill in drummer
not playing the songs totally correct, but oh well. We only did 4 songs, and
did our set list backwards and called ourselves "NOT TRIBAL". Well anyways...
things are looking up. We'll see what becomes soon.


3/23/05 - Well here's the news. About 2 weeks ago Jason Bauer...the sweet drummer
extrodinair has now left the band after about 2 years of service. We wish Jason
well on future endevors. We do hope we can get another drummer wuickly, we
want to keep pushing and making more music...FAST. If there any drummer's out
there who want to test thier waters w/ us, don't be shy. As for everything else,
we're right now just trying to make some $ for the band. WORK WORK WORK WORK
....word up. We'll be recording soon after all is set.


2/23/05 - So everyone, just for your info, we're trying to revamp the site some,
Update EVERYTHING. Well anyways, onto some news and etc. We just played the THE
FIGHT show. We posted the pics up, and we got some new songs. Expect recordings and
such really soon. We did a new song called Necronomicon which we opened up with...
very hot, Next at the show we played Blood Bitches And Booze, followed by the
2 MDSB songs Honor And Death, and I Have Seen. The crowd mostly got into the 2nd half
of the show which was The Art Of Drunken Master, Stealing Skulls, Pray For Death,
and then DRINK! FUCK! KILL! DESTROY! It was a good time, and kids moshed like fuckers.
We love all of you that could come up. Thanks very much. At the moment we are
going to search for a 2nd guitarist and the other people to complete the line up. 
Peace for now!


1/21/05 - Hey everyone. Happy new year and all that bullshit, even though it's
way past the new year. First off lets celebrate by cracking open a cold 1 for
us getting a new bassist named Chris. He's a sweet dude and he's fucking sweet.
Hot times for all. Plus the band is writting some more jams and hopefully
recording a bunch in the future. More to come. Sorry this is short and sweet
but hey whatever, there' more info to come.


11/14/04 - Hey people. Sorry the site hasn't been updated. I (Mark / MADD DOGG) have
been currently been busy and being a big lazy fat ass (no... seriously, I'm
FAT). Anyways, besides that, I am goinf to tell you all the goings on latly. First
and foremost, we played that show on October 30th (MY B-DAY!), which fucking RULED.
I had a costume I was gonna wear of Alex Byrne (a kid who majorly hates my ass),
but I got god damn shaving creamed by the SickboY ProductionZ and Xtreme Wheels
staff. Holy fuck, it was nuts. Anyways, we kicked off the set with BLOOD, BITCHES,
& BOOZE...it was fun times. I swear to god we had 2 six year olds circle pitting,
it's always fun to help corrupt the minds of our youth ;) ...but anyways. We
had to keep the set flowing because I didn't want anyone to be on Virginia's (the
woman that runs Xtreme Wheels) shit list, so we did as quick as we could (with
me saying stupid horrible thyings as always). We went into THE ART OF DRUNKEN
MASTER, which enveloped sing-a-longs, and wild sparatic circle pits and shit.
FUN! FUN! FUN!...After that jam, we did 2 songs from a side project that Doug
White (from the amazing bands Fledgeling Death, The Watchman...no not the
gay Canadian one, Ookla The Mook, and misc other bands and engineer of the great
Watchman Studios) created about a year ago. We did the songs HONOR AND DEATH and
then I HAVE SEEN...rockin'. We then played what I considered the highlight of
the set, PRAY FOR DEATH. Kids danced pretty damn hard so it was awesome, but
I say the "highlight of the set" due to when right before we broke into the
really brutal mosh part of the song, we told the crowd it was time to fight the
"invisible ninjas" in which our fucking amazing friend Andy was up on stage and
was decked out in what was a costume resembling Raiden from Mortal Kombat. Kids
went fucking off! After that song we did the final song of the night... DRINK!
FUCK! KILL! DESTROY! The kids were stoked and rocked the hell out. shit was a
blast. It was the debute of our new guitar player Mike, who fucking OWNS at guitar.
We also gotta thank our awesome friend Joe (The old bassist of Today's Not Tomorrow).
He was there for us, and helped us for bass. Thanks a ton broham.
          Now for the upcomming news of what the hell is going on with us now.
We're kind of in need of a bassist right now. We might have it taken care of but
we'll see. We haven't practiced since the show, hopefully we will this week.
My good friend Mike's trying out and I think he'll be able to make the cut, as
long as he can play fast as fuck. We'll see. If anyone else wants to take a swing
at it though, by all mean go ahead. Also, soon we're gonna have more shirts in stock,
and more new merch too. Give me us a hollar if you want to buy somthing. I
think in December (if all goes well for the bassist), we could record some more
material. That would be balls out. Tim is also soon going to be in the mix for
trumpet stuff comming up so we can make more detailed peices. I think that's
everything. Give us a shout and stuff, we love you all, ciao.


10/1/04 - The show is comming up and we're looking pretty good. Things are
looking very good in every aspect. We're redoing some songs like Stealing Skulls,
and making a new one. Also, the web page has got some more pics up...check
em out! More updates to come soon!


9/6/04 - Alright people, here's the skinny. Things are a little wierd, meaning
we're in between things of finding out what the hell is going on with members.
Jason seems to say he no longer has time to much for the band, yet is supposidly
playing in some other group...YAY!!! DRAMA!!! ...we haven't heard much from
him, so who knows. Our practices for drummer have been with Tim (who is actually
the trumpet player). Tim use to be the drummer before so he knows some stuff.
We've been doing that decently but now stands another test for us, Tim has moved
to Boston MA for music school. We've got 1 of 2 bass players to check with,
in which both would be good options. Things are a little nuts, but are looking up.
Hopefully all will come together soon, but all in all, we're definitly playing
Deathfest this year. It shall be CHAOS!


7/15/04 - Well it's official...we finally found a new guitarist. Thank the
spirits, he's fucking AMAZING. His name's Mike and he's mother fucking
incredible at guitar. We'll be back up to speed hopefully soon with a full line
up. More news to come soon kids.

7/6/04 - It's been a while since last updated, but here's what's going on.
The band is going to record the song Engine Asylum, in which surprisingly
the people who are all doing this are Brian "THE MAN" Manly, "THE CALCULATOR"
Rob Rupert, Aaron Bebee (a.k.a. Nikki Christmas...the former guitarist
from Peir 9 Brawl, he's playing bass though). Mark "MADD DOGG" Miller will
be on vocals of coarse, but "THE MAN WITH THE ARMS" Tim Shrock is going to be
doing drums on this recording. Now if you are possing the question about, "Why
isn't Jason recording on this song?" Well here's the deal. This idea to record
this song and who got it together with the people who are doing it are all
Tim's doing really. Jason we tried to see if he was available but he wasn't, so
Tim is hopping on the drums. The way that the regular band see's it, it'll be a
good way to get a song down for future referance. The song will also be put up
on line for all you people to download.
          On another note, Jason and Mark are still trying out people for
the band. We have yet to try out some guitarists, and we are looking for bassists
as well. If you know anyone, give us a shout. When all is set and done, we'll
be giving the web page a total overhall of information. Most likly as well we
will be making a www.bosstribal.com web page with tons of goodies. That's all
for now kids.

3/19/04 - We are still testing more kids out in other areas, and hopefully
the few tricks up our sleves will be AMAZING. We will know VERY
VERY soon.
          Also, we now have STICKERS! They're free (sept for shipping costs,
so fuckin get some and put them ALL OVER YOUR TOWN!!! Thanks to Miwear, they
hooked us up! Everyone check out www.miwear.com ...word!

1/25/04 - NEWS NEWS NEWS...We might are testing out some people, hopping we
come across someone we like and likes us the same. We think we might have someone,
and if he chooses to get in with us...HOLY FUCK. Good stuff. We need a bassist
pretty bad. Hopefully we can find 1 to complete the core members. We have however
aquired a trumpet player. His info wil be put on the site when we get everything
up to speed. Hell yes...MORE TO COME SOON!

12/30/03 - Hey all, we got some new merch today. We got patches and buttons.
Look in the TRIBAL COSMIC GEAR section and you can see the goodies. That's all
sorta to report besides more web site overhail to come...word.

12/8/03 - Hey people, we have news...nothing thrilling, but somthing worth while.
We got more buttons, and now (within a few days), we are going to have patches
for your book bags, punked up leather jackets, toilet seats, and whatever else
you can put them on. We're basically out of our shirt stock, that will get
refilled in a bit. We also apologize to those who want that Lifeforce Compilation
2002 disk. We want the booklet to look like the original, and at the moment we
can't get the damn size right and front and back printed. we'll see what we can
do. We'll probobly soon have stickers as well. 
          The basic shit going down right now is just buying some better
equipment and also our main task...FINDING A BASS PLAYER. Eric "SHOEHORN"
Kenyon if you did or did not know has been absent for a long time. It sucks,
but hey, gotta deal with it. Any bassist who want to try out, please e-mail...
boss_tribal@yahoo.com ...along with any other instruments if possible.
          As for other stuff, the song JEPETTO is getting rewritten. Jason thought
it was bland, and yeah, in these changing times he's right. As for any other song
stuff, we'll see what happens after we new members in here. The time to record will
come soon enough, and finally be able to get out some music for you kids. As
for anything else there isn't anything to talk about except we are gonna get around
to updating this web page, PLUS, there will be a SWEEEEEEEEET flash web page in
the future for all to experience. 


11/20/03 - Hey people...things have been pretty slow but still moving on.
We are trying out some people very soon...word. Oh yes, and for a bit of
monumental tidings to the great web page (which needs to be updated bad ...hehe),
the site now has reached over 50,000 visits!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! We fucking
love you all and thank you for keep comming back and sticking up your middle
finger to society. Keep looking for more updates....we'll get em in.  


10/26/03 - Yo yo yo, what up killa'z and killetts. Well we played a pretty fun
show with 6 Ft. Under, skinless, and Behemoth. We did 5 songs... kicked it off
with BLOOD, BITCHES, AND BOOZE, into JEPETTO (which before hand, a rant about how
bad the band DOPE was, was put into effect). The next song  was THE ART OF DRUNKEN
MASTER, then PRAY FOR DEATH, and finally, DRINK! FUCK! KILL! DESTROY! It seemed
like a pretty good night aside from a constant problem with the microphones.
But hey, that's rock & roll, it was a fun time. Big thanks to "KUZ" and "THE
CALCULATOR" for helping us out that night.
           Plans for BOSS TRIBAL that will now happen is: We are striving to
get a solidified line up. We have some people who want to try out, and that's
pretty cool. We'll see what becomes in the future. After that the plan is to
record, and then play a big solid local show. Then play around in other areas.


10/1/03 - Boss Tribal is studio bound around end of November. The CD is going to
feature about 5 to 6 tracks. The CD is mainly for the band to find perminant band
members since they can't explain what they sound like, and so others know what to
expect. The members on the recording will be all the members they have currently.
If all goes well, this CD could be used for promo/merchandise purposes, but
it uncertain. Either way, these songs will be downloadable for all to obtain, so
get out the napster kids. Time to get em while they're hot.

9/1/03 - It's been a while but mostly the stuff going on has been buisiness crap
for everyone. The band most likly has a guitarist now, so that's sweet. We're
just checking on some things, and we are going to have a good united attitude. In
some other news, BOSS TRIBAL was name dropped and was in a fun filled joking
convo in the newly recorded Every Time I Die DVD. Those ETID kids are fucking
sweet dudes. There was a site to check it out at but we seem to have lost it...
oh well...it'll be somewhere on the net. Hunt for it like the Bang Bus hunts for
dirty hoes. As for anything else....that's all folks.

8/6/03 - ok so here's some decent news...short but, eh oh well. We're at the
moment still chilling trying to work up the line up and we do have a kid interested
in some keyboard stuff. So we're gonna look into that and see what's up. That's all
really...short and sweet, just like Jason's penis.

7/17/03 - We are sad to report but 2 things...1) Dale Hinz, our guitarist has
quit the band due to injery. This injery we can not talk about in wishes of Dale,
but just know that he will be missed and we love the kid to death. We all were
getting along great. Who knows, maybe some day we can get him in the mix of things
some way, some how. We right now are looking for a guitarist who is pretty damn good.
We have our eye on a few people, and are recieving some names and #'s, but hey,
keep em comming. This brings us to our 2nd thing.... 2) Since Dale quit we can not
play the Madball show. This also sucks...life does go on, and we shall overcome.
We will soon see, in time, things will be good. 

7/5/03 - Hey everyone... lots of shizzle. 1 is...Fight fest went on, and BT played
a pretty decent set. An energetic set was kicked off by the sweet jam BLOOD,
BITCHES, AND BOOZE, and then busted into Jepetto soon after. Next the band kicked
out a jam that they haven't played in a long time, ENGINE ASYLUM. They then played
Art Of Drunken Master, followed by the new song PRAY FOR DEATH, in which the crowd
loved the shitty babble that MADD DOGG was quoted saying the line for the night, 
"Suicide is fucking gay". After the new one, they ended it with the great sing along
DRINK! FUCK! KILL! DESTROY! It was a good time, and first time viewers and other
bands seemed to enjoy it pretty a good amount. Yay!!!!
        Now, what's going on is this. Jason is out of town till July 12th cuz he's gotta
do college hunting...way to be a nerd Jay. Eric is still gonna be a male hooker. Mark
in the meantime is collecting Pokemon to save the world from the evil Mother Brain.
But most importantly, Dale (and this is on a serious note), is taking time to
recooperate his arm. It's been pretty rough on him cuz he's got a shitty injery,
hopefully all will be well soon for him. The band also is still looking for some
more members. check the TRIBE section to see what's up. Well, that's all for right now.


6/12/03 - Things are looking SUPER good for Fight Fest. What's even cooler is
"THE CALCULATOR" Rob Rupert will be filling in for 2nd guitar on this show.
It was super cool of him to do this with us and we've been running a lot faster
than we expected. Hopefully we can get 2 to 3 new songs in for the Fight Fest
jam. It'll be a hell of a good time! Keep ya posted SOON!

6/4/03 - HELL YES! We have LOTS of great news to tell about! First off, we
have a new guitar player, Dale Hinz! He's a super sweet dude and a told fuckin'
wicked guitar player. ALSO, after trying to figure out how the hell to do it,
we FINALLY got an MP3 up on the web page! FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YEAH!!! In more cool
news we've got some shows comming up, plus we've got great things in the works.
We've made a ton of friends w/ MANY local bands all over, and are gonna try
and start to tour around once we get things all situated. We've never felt
so good about us being a band as we do right now. It's like we have brand new
life, and even more strength then we EVER have before! Expect LOTS of great
things VERY soon. Hopefully we're going to get a small demo-ish thing out,
and then maybe a full length once we get all these members. Shit is looking REALLY
good. Stay tuned on all of this soon!

5/7/03 - Things are slowly but surely getting on thier way on the up and up. A
few pics have been added...nothin special. The site's gonna have some more
updating to it and shit. Keep on the look out!

4/20/03 - Happy Easter kids! Long time no update. Well since I'm a lazy dumbass,
and been booking shows all over, there hasn't been much activity except a few
things. We're trying out some guitar people right now so that's sweet, and we
are gonna be trying out some more people for other possitions as well. On another
note BOSS TRIBAL is now played on WEDG 103.3 THE EDGE (citidel comunications
station), and college radio station at the University of Buffalo, WRUB (which can
be gotten on satalite radio). REQUEST BIOTCH! Also you can see Madd Dogg beating ass
with a lot of crazy kids for the Every Time I Die music video (which will soon air
on MTV2 and Much Music USA. That's all for now, probobly some more updating soon.
Lamb Of God's in town, time to party! Take kare peeps, Happy Easter!

3/3/03 - WE FINALLY GOT A DRUMMER!!! Jason Bauer has joined the band. He is acute and
he knows his shit. Thank the lord for us stumbling upon him from our driend in
The Pay Days. Thanks mucho. As for other news, we're still lookin for other members
so if anyone can help...please do!

2/17/02 - We played the Blood For Blood show last night. It was pretty interesting.
Blood For Blood and Ramallah loved us, that was really kick ass. Ross (from The
Snotrockets) was drumming again...he came out in a dress. Oh lord, thank god for
punk rock kids like him. We opened the night with Blood, Bitches, and Booze where
MADD DOGG took 1 of those bouncy ball things that you sit and bounce on and smashed
a few kids during the breakdown...yay. Jepetto was next, followed by I Wish I Was
A Lezbian which was dedicated to MADD DOGG's mom for it being the first time
she's ever seen the band live...her jaw dropped, that was sweet. Next we did a new
song called Stealing Skulls...a grinding skateboard punk jam. After that we did
The Art Of Drunken Master, UNSANE's Scrape, and finished it off w/ DRINK! FUCK!
KILL! DESTROY! where MADD DOGG was held up by some people...aside from the 
technical difficulties it was pretty sweet. If anyone has any pictures please
send em out way!
         Now what the plan is, is to quickly try and get Matt from Shadows Fall
the song for the sampler if possible. Hopefully we kan. We'll see soon! In the
meantime we're trying to test out some drummers and guitarists. Hopefully we
kan get who we want / need.

2/8/03 - It's been a LONG time since the site has been updated... shame, SHAME
on us all. Well here's all the news... 1) Jay Whopper, the guitarist we had at the
Dillinger Escape Plan show. 2) We have some fill in people but out old keyboardist
Zong Gu (THE GOLDEN CHILD) might want to come back to us (except this time playing
guitar. We're testing out some new drum people and we're  talking to some other
guitairsts as well. NOW here's some other amazing news... WE'RE OPENNG FOR
BLOOD FOR BLOOD! What also kicks ass is we're gonna get on 3 comps. 1 in The Netherlands,
another is the next Lifeless Records compilation, and then some other comp. BT will
most likly hit record some stuff up and kick a demo very soon (yeah...FINALLY).
The band is going to take some more time to organize, and that will be awesome for
the future. We'll see what's up!

12/20/02 - Here's what's up... we're gonna go through some major changes. The
1st thing happeneing is we're gonna have a new line up (as u see it is in the
process already. Eric "SHOEHORN" Kenyon is the man of bass, and Jay on guitar...
WE NEED MORE MEMBERS SUCH AS A DRUMMER AND ECT. We're taking applications
(in the rear)..hehe! The 2nd thing going to happen is we will be recording.
The 3rd leg of the process will then happen which is touring. Yes these are
normal things a band has going on for them. But in the meantime, ecpect a
full assault upon buffalo and other areas of the most widespread BT shit u kan
find. Stickers, buttons, ect. We're gonna try and get it all everywhere.
Things will happen hopefully soon.
          Dillingwe Escape Plan was definitly an AMAZING show...we did the new
song Blood, Bitches, and Booze which kids swong aome fists too. Booyah for
that. We then nailed off Jepetto, I Wish I Was A Lezbian, The Art Of Drunken Master
(which was a fun little time too), did a sweet cover of Scrape by the band UNSANE,
and finished it off with DRINK! FUCK! KILL! DESTROY! A damn fun time.
          Now for the moment, check out the pics on the web page. We have shirt
available, and we can throw u some free CD stuff if you want, from the Lifeless
Records Compilation CD! Peace 4 now!

12/3/02 - We got some shitty news but it's just what happens I guess. "THE CALCULATOR"
Rob Rupert is quitting the band. It's not his thing really, he's wanting to do
somthing more of a strait up Glassjaw type style band. Good luck to him with that. He
was definitly a fun dude in the band. His last show will be the Dillinger Escape
Plan show. That's all the news for now. PEACE!

11/30/02 - Hey kidz, We're opening for the sweetest grindcore / metalcore band
EVER... the one and only, DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN! Yeah dudes and chicas bonitas.
Rock the fuck out! Ross Vega$ from 41 Shots / The Snot Rockets, is gonna be hittin
the drums for us on this 1. We're also testing out lots of people for the band in the
mean time. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellz yeah. More news to come pretty soon, definitly
gonna have more upcomming. TA TA FOR NOW!

11/11/02 - Ok here's all the news and crap that's goin on plus the Deathfest 2002 recap.
First the news... It seems like the first time in forever that bthere's people
interested in the band for tryin out. We have an array of musicians for drums and
other shit wanting to hit it up. We'll see what becomes very soon!
           Here's the Deathfest recap for BT's preformance. First before anything
we wanna give props to Ian (2 Stiff) Peacock our ex-guitarist, and Ratboy from EVERY
TIME I DIE, for helping us out and rockin with us to complete the show. Before the
show got underway, Mark wore a jacket made out of porn...yes...PORN! This was 1 of the
better Deathfests that happened for the band seeing as the last 1 to them wasn't that
great. This 1 had a LOT of energy, especially from MADD DOGG plowing the fuck out of
everyone. ENGINE ASYLUM started off the night with such high energy that the mic cable
ripped right out of the box. A strong begining. JEPETTO was next and was ok. Next was
I WISH I WAS A LEZBIAN which is always a sweet little number. Then came the lots of
chaos when THE ART OF DRUNKEN MASTER was played. There was an array of cupcakes and
pumpkins being flung into the crowd, and pelted Mark with them. That song went REALLY
well. Right after the band played the new tune BLOOD, BITCHES, AND BOOZE, which was
a killer song to rock out and cause some havoc to. We did GOLDFINGER's cover 
of SMP after that...heavy as fuck. Love it. Then finally the great song, DRINK! FUCK!
KILL! DESTROY! People were pretty suprised...that was killer. All in all not a real bad
preformance by the band. It'll be sweeter up comming too. That's all for now, peace yo!

10/11/02 - Deathfest is commin up...it's gonna fuckin be BAD ASS for us! The shit
planned is SWEEEEEEEET! Ratboy from the AMAZING metalcore band Every Time I Die is
going to help out on drums. ALSO, some more fun news, EX-Guitarist, Ian "2 STIFF"
Peacock is gonna rock the fuck out doing fill in 2nd guitar for us! Nick from LMC
Pride just couldn't find time. This 1 will be 1 bad fuckin ass show. The band has
also been hooking up with multiple bands to tour with that are upon the bigger side.
Uphill Battle, Impaled, Shadows Fall, and some other bands MADD DOGG has brought wanna
help the boys out. For that the band gives much thanks and VERY much love. We will be
also looking into what we all think we want to do with this CD demo we're making.
Soon, much stuff will come together. We're also striving to get upon the Kittie show
that will be the next day IF they kan have an opener. Highly diubtful, but
we'll see what will happen. If BT plays w/ Kittie, fuckin A...people will kill each
other. Good things...ah yes...VERY good things.

10/2/02 - Hellz yeah!, Deathfest 3 is just a little ways away! We have some news
of Nick from LMC Pride will be helping use with 2nd guitar at this show. Pat is also

few new songs...we'll see! The best thing to report is this... WE FINALLY HAVE
THE LIFLESS RECORDS COMP 2002 MP3'D!!!!! ASK FOR A COPY ASAP!!! 

9/12/02 - Well people, we're pretty fuckin pumped right now. BOSS TRIBAL was just
asked to be interviewed in a magazine over in Greece (yes the country),  which this
magazine is the equivalent to Revolver or AP or Circus or sum shit over there. The
thing will only be in Greek text but we're gonna try and get a paper or somthing that
is able to say what questions they asked or whatever, translated, so we kan put it up on
this thing right here. The most kick ass thing is though, this magazine will have
a CD compilation which we'll be up on. Check this out, THEY'LL BE PRINTING 60,000
COPIES!!!! AWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAH!!!

9/9/02 - For those of u who know this web page was down for about an hour and a half
today. Now yer probobly thinking. so what, it's up, no worries...well actually THIS was
a BIG deal. Someone said that our STATE OF THE UNION ADRESS was too offensive, and we
were FORCED to take it down. We are VERY angry about this because "we offended someone".
Personally we feel OUR freedom of speech was offended by THIS. We were not given
ANY warning (which I guess tripod kan do, WITHOUT telling u wgat the problem is and
ect). Well, here's something for THAT little fuck who ran his bitch ass lips and had
it taken dpwn... "We hope yer fucking happy. That page on this site was up for 2 YEARS
and we NEVER had a problem. If u had a problem you should have came to US. You can go
fuck yourself because now u caused a problem. If you don't tell us who you ar, it proves
how much of a fucking piece of shit that you are and invade OUR privacy because
you don't share OUR fucking opinions, beliefes, or can't understand dark humoristic
things when you see it. Take yer fuckin dumb mother fuckin Billy Graham bible thumping
soccor mom fucking ass after some REAL GOD DMAN ISSUE like child labor or better yet,
you take yer dumb rickety old ass to www.disney.com ...maybe you'll be offended cuz 
Donald Duck has no fucking pants! PLEASE DIE, AND HAVE A NICE FUCKING DAY!" ...ah, that
was thereputic :) As for the tripod staff...we would not like to be on yer bad side,
be we are seriously very angry at this... CORRECT IT PLEASE.
        Now for some real new shit. We're gonna soon check out a drummer (Davin) kid
from Niagra Falls, and a bassist kid from Lackawana (Jay). Hopefully shit will be sweet
for both of them. That's about it for right now....peace! 

9/06/02 - Well we're gettin shit more under way now. We're talking to this kid who a
drummer and he's got a guitarist friend too. He like shit like Glassjaw and stuff
so that rocks, but he Joey from Slipknot is the fastest drummer he knows off... damn
if we corrupt this kid he's be listening to Dying Fetus while pissing on blind crack babies.
Ah well, hopefully they kick ballz. In other news we're attempting to get new shit done,
hopefullyreal soon. DEATHFEST is complete for in the line up SAWEEET titties. ;) In the
meantime get yer dancin shoes on cuz we'll be rockin hard ALL over. We got a little inside
news on shit once we get more underway again too. We'll tell ya that in a bit from now.
Here's a hint tho, touring w/ a national band for a few days... yeeeehaw! That's all
the news for now, but before we're out, we wanna say WE FUCKIN LOVE ALL OF YOU! We
love u so much that there's gonna be a FANS page soon! Yaaaaaaay, well that's all, lata!

8/22/02 - Hey boyz and girlz, here's what's going on in the BT world right now.
Well Vinny (ex-Hatescar looks like he won't join us now. He's gonna be pretty
much moving to Pennsylvania. IT SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS. Tim is gonna be taking
over the drumming duties ONLY for this show... WE WANT A DIFFERENT DRUMMER THOUGH
SO IF ANYONE WANTS TO DO IT TRY OUT!
           There's been a bunch of new pics added...look in the pic section. We
got new pics from Warped Tour, the surprise legion show, and ect. If anyone kan get
us pics of us at The Continental when we opened for 40 Below Summer and American
Head Charge, that'd be phatty. A lot of band links have been put on THE BRETHRINE
page too. Other than that, just get ready for Deathfest and kill kill kill! :)

8/9/02 - ok as far as it stands here's the shit goin down. Tim Shrock is gonna do
the band, he's gonna do the best he can for his time. As for the new kid tryin
out for drums, the secret is revealed. It is Vinny from Hatescar. We're also
checkin into this DJ named Greg. Hopefully all is gonna go real well for us. We
still have a bunch of work to do yet.
          Yes kids it's comming closer and closer to that time... DEATHFEST 3!
Oh how sweet it is, BT's greatest event to give Buffalo. This show will be soooo
AMAZING this year.
          Also the band is looking into a CD compilation for Anti-Racism for a
starting record lable. We shall see what will happen for getting a reply upon
this. Hopefully they will get everything together and the band will kick sum ass
upon that. Racism sux, help fight it. Well, that's all for now, peace!

7/16/02 - What up? Oh lord there's a lot to say. Sorry things haven't been told much.
Lots of shit's been going on. First thing's first, it sucks to say but Tim "THE
MAN WITH THE ARMS" Shrock, can't play with BT no more. His shedual is just to 
counteractive to ours. We love him and will always stck by him for anything in the
future, as he will to us in his loving support. There's a lot of secretive shit
we can't say, cuz dammit if we did, all hell would break loose. All we can say is,
we're checkin upon this drummer kid who is fucking GODLY. We're cheaking out
Cory from Trigger Finger to add him as an addition to the band hopefully. There
is a DJ kid we're checkin into. Finally we're introduced to another trumpet kid.
Once we get the core, we get the horns and extras in, and fucking DESTROY! Let
us all pray in unison for this...
           Also a few more things. The Lifeless Records Compilation CD 2002 is
now available for u lil bastid's al to get! The song on it is an Unfinished 
version however. The song still is to get more stuff onto it, but as needed to be
released at that time to get on it so oh well. Look in the MERCH section about
the sheeeeeeeeeeeeeit. As for other news, MADD DOGG is going to be doing some
vocals upon the band Warblade's CD upcomming in the future. GET PUMPED FOR THAT
SHIT! The band itself is eager for anything. Who knows, maybe even touring will
comence soon....THAT would be killer. More news to come kids!

6/25/02 - Hey kids, it's been forever. Sorry about that. Things have just been slow
We have been trying to build the band up to full potential and it's been REALLY
tedeious. We're gonna see if Ryan from The Unreliables kan kick bass (since Matt
is gonna do Trombone), who knows, we're also checking upon Ben, the ex-drumer from
Alleyway Infantry. It all depends on stuff. Cory from Trigger finger is still checkin
shit out soon too. We're rolling along but this all means we need the following: BASS,
DRUMS, PRECUSIONISTS (assuming Pat we kan't track down), a DJ, and KEYBOARDIST. 
Hopefully stuff will be good. If u know anyone, get a hold of us. 

5/10/02 - AWESOME NEWS...BOSS TRIBAL HAS A TRUMPET PLAYER. Surprisingly
it is Tim "The Man With The Arms" Shrock. He and the band both wanted to do things
together with each other, feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel the love!!! Anyways, so things are
sweet on that end. Tim is gonna do drumming for while they are still getting
another drummer. Tim will probobly finish up the CD for the band too on drums. We'll
see soon what's up.

5/1/02 - It's been a while since we updated... sorry about that kidz. More or less
cuz we're still trying to get shit done. The rumors of us breaking up are way false.
We're going to acomplish what needs to be done for the demo, and then kick out the
CD soon after that. We shall soon have what that New England Metalfest comp
displayed on our page. So u kan see what we're up on for that. The Bio will soon
be updated, so will some other links on this site. Also a fan has some pics from
Warped Tour she's gettin us... fook yeah! This web page shall soon be at 40,000 hits,
comming very near in the future. Get ready for sum good shit from us soon!

3/31/02 - Hey kidz we got some news for ya... good and bad. The bad news is our
bassist Matt Emerson is going to be moving to Pittsberg. Around June 1rst is when
he'll be going. If somthing changes, we'll keep u updated. He has been recording
with us...maybe he kan finish, we'll see. That all depends on drummer stuff though as
well. We will be testing out some more drumers upcomming this week hopefully. Pat
is also getting things straight in his life as well. hopefuly he'll still be in the
BT malitia. 
          The good news is we're up on that Lifeless Records 2002 New England Metalfest
compilation. When we get a copy back here, we'll see what we kan do to kick some more
copies out or somthing. The song on the demo was an unfinished version of THE
ART OF DRUNKEN MASTER...so we ended up kallin the shit THE ART OF DRUNKEN MASTER
(Unofficial version). We want to still add some things to it, touch up a little more,
ect. Pretty soon the demo itself will be done, and we'll have a demo release party
later on after that (we're just having to form up the members and crap then. As
If ANYONE is DJ, horn player, or whatever else we need, try out! Just remember we're
not down w/ the drug thing (Except booze...but no alcohalics). Well that's all
for now.One more small note is we have became friends with the AMAZING band
Lamb Of God. MADD DOGG and John (bassist), met at the Lamb Of God show in Buffalo
and they wanna help each other out. That's all the shit pretty much,  more news
top come soon!      

3/22/02 - Some fast but AWESOME news. The band is almost finished w. sum tracks
from the studio! The best thing though is that the band has an opportunity
to get on Matt from the band Shadows Fall's compilation CD which he will be 
passing out at the New England Metal Fest! They think they can do it in time...
They should be able to. We'll see what comes soon!

3/18/02 - Well we added sum more pics up in the pic section. Gonna attempt to
get a better more non confusing pic section down if possible. Stuff of like old
pics of shows with the old band members (and try to explain the line up kinda).
Also gonna have an old members section brought in and shit. We're atempting
to try the new drummer kids and ect. Stuff will be underway soon.
          Pretty soon the band will have a VERY nice equipment set up for themselves
on the guitarist end of things. They will be soon getting a full stack of Crate
Blue Voodoo. PLUS, the other half of the Red Voodoo. Hopefully the band will be
able to destroy insanely with thier set up.
          MADD DOGG has finally got up his productions page now for his company.
Hopefully very soon the lable's page will also be done. Look out for more of this
soon.  

3/16/02 - Ok at the moment we're trying to get more recording shit done. Things
are looking promissing and we are gonna make stuff a TON better. We thank you
for your patience, and support.  Hopefully we'll get BOTH tracks done...it'd 
be damn nice to. More progress on what's going on in the band shall come too.

2/27/02 - Ok here's the news. Sam Galbo from 2HD has definitly been accepted into
the band. He is definitly going to bring an amazing feel into the band and the
boy is totally fuckin kool w/ everything. We are going to test Tye some more along
with some other drummer kids. Hopefully we will find sumone who will be VERY 
versitile and able to rock out w/ thier cock out. More to come on this soon!

2/25/02 - Well here's what's going on, tomarrow we test a new drummer named Tye.
He'll be 1 of a few kids we'll test out. We're also testing this other kid out
as well...the name slips the mind but hey eat dick. Also Matt and Mark's friend
Sam who's a keyboardist is also trying out. More info will come soon!

2/6/02 - We have lots of news for today...it's been a while. There will be some
changes to BOSS TRIBAL in the future. First... Ian Peacock, a great friend and
member to the band has resigned as guitarist due to some differances. Ian says he's
gonna finish the demo recording, but after that he's is out. Also, Rob is going
to take a small break from the band to get together his shit from skool and work,
that won't be to long probobly though. In the mean time we're going to look for
people for a fill in drummer (since Tim had sergery), build up $ for equipment and
our band fund, and try to recruit more people. We think we're gonna be just fine.
The recording we have some people comming in the studio like our old guitarist Brian
Manly (THE MAN) and Rat Boy from Every Time I Die. Good things shall come.

1/22/02 - Hey! Thanks to all of you people who came to see us at the battle of the
bands in Hamberg. The show for us we think we could have DEFINITLY done better,
however the crowd loved it. Also, Rob not being able to play due to the direct
box was gone,
that kinda sucked too. I hoped you liked tha banner we made though (it was a BIG
fuckin logo w/ a chick's legs wide open and her fingering her clit. ANYWAYS, the
band opened up w/ Jepetto and then they went into Engine Asylum. Next they did I Wish
I Was A Lezbian, The Art Of Drunken Master (where Mark did a nice little flip into
the crowd...always fun), and then finally Drink! Fuck! Kill!
Destroy!... of
coarse. During DFKD, since Rob was pretty much sittin to the side, Mark kalled him
over when he was anouncing the band members... he said "whoever rips off Rob's pants
gets a T-shirt...kids were diving like fuckin crazy! SOOOOOOOOOO GOOD! The always
kick ass gang vocals from the audience also spiced up the greatness...thanks
to all, especially Matt Battleson cuz that kid fuckin kicks major ass, hehe. Mark
got dog piled and all was pretty much ended after that. By the way, Mark sez "Hey
ladies, hope u liked the suit".
          Now comes the future effactions. We got recording on Saturday at
BFT Tapehouse. Hopefully all goes well. We will be rocording for a small demo,
and for a compilation CD that is a HUGE DIY compilation CD. Both will be out soon
to the public as soon as possible. :)

1/13/02 - WHAT IZ UP KIDZ!!! We are giving all you kidz MAD props! We had a surprise
last minute show RIGHT before the show we had later that night w/ American Head
Charge and 40 Below Summer. The surprise show we hit up in Hamberg at the Hamberg
Legion. Thanks to Kaitlin for havin our asses. The band was a little late (mostly
cuz of Mark from gettin lost), but we had a blast playing. We opened up w/ Jepetto,
followed by Engine Asylum, The Art Of Drunken Master, a cover of Goldfinger's
SMP, and finished it off w/ Drink! Fuck! Kill! Destroy! It was a good set and it
was a good warm up for the show later that night. Kids who were at the show said
we were AMAZING...well, glad ya liked it. Personally we liked the show later on
that night better in terms of preformance wise. At The Contiental, the crowd was
all gettin into it and shit, but what was really REALLY amazing is we had these 2
pretty damn hot chicks dancing and shit during the set! They were strippers too!
They started off with Engine Asylum... tried to have a sort of dramatic light
show opening...heh, NOPE! LOL, but anyways... Engine Asylum geared shit up. That
was followed by Jepetto. Next they did a cover of Goldfinger's SMP... very sweeeet.
Soon after that, they played The Art Of Drunken Master...during the song, the 1 hot
stripper chick jumped on Mark, wrapping her legs around his pelvis (HELLZ YEAH!) but
he wasn't like prepared for that shit so they both slammed into the stage... 
luckily she was aight cuz she hit pretty hard. Then, she started freak
dancin Mark while they were in that position, and then the other 1 came up and
was freak dancin his back! It was a MADD DOGG sandwich...FUCKIN KILLER! The song kept
going, Mark did sum arial kick off some speaker...yay. Finally after it was done
they kicked into Drink! Fuck! Kill! Destroy! HARD and abrupt. The stripper that
jumped on Mark ended up flashing them (LMC was like "FUCK YEAH!!! TITIES!!!").
Matt mutha' fuckin' Battlson screamed on sum mic for the song, and all was fuckin
saweeeeeeet! We ended up gaining a LOT of new fans, and sold a LOT of merch...it 
was fun as hell! We wanna say big fuckin thanks to our fans and the bands we 
played with, AND the promoters for throwin us on there!
           Now a spot of quick news for sum kool sheeeeit. Mark has been asked
by Switch 86 to do a song with them. The song will be a new song and will be started
on later, it'll be some wicked ass song most definitly!

12/31/01 - It is official, "THE CALCULATOR" Rob Rupert and Matt "LMC" Emerson have
officially joined the band. Get ready for al hell to break loose at shows!
           Now we have some other news, Tim is going to undergo knee surgery on 
Jan 28th. In this time he will be outta commision for 6 months... MAYBE. In the
time between the final show before his sergery and the sergery itself, the
band might be able to record IF they decide to use thier BFT recording time.
They'd shoot out a demo of 2 to 3 songs depending. So what will happen to the
band during the 6 months? Well Pat is gonna try and take Tim's place, if Pat sucks
(LOL!), then we find a replacement drummer up until Tim gets better. We shall see
about this all soon, plus touring plans. Take kare 4 now...PEACE!
 
12/26/01 - Merry mutha' F-in Christmas!!! (Yeah a day late but hush!). We
gotta apologize for the long wait on news but, hey, we've been busy. Boss Tribal
would like to announce proudly... *big breath*.... WE'RE OPENING FOR THE FUCKING
GODS OF MUSIC... BIOHAZARD!!!!!!!!! YEAH THAT'S RIGHT!!! BOSS TRIBAL has been asked
to open for the band Biohazard, and some other bands like American Head Charge,
Speed Dealer, and Carve. We have kidz from as far as Texas comming to see us!!!
Can you say spread the mother fuckin love!!! 
           Next on the menu, we will find out tomarrow if we have won Buffalo's best
hardcore / metal band. If we win that would fucking kick ass, but if we don't, we
definitly wanna say thank you to the fans and ect who voted for us. You are what
makes this god damn scene tick, and what fuels the fire that we burn with. We'll see!
          Finally this is what it looks like. Matt and Rob are most likly gonna
be in the band. We're judging sum shit from what they think once we rock sum shit
out a little bit more. Things are moving smooth, and some blood looks like it'll
