It all started years ago in Minneapolis Minnesota. There were a group of misfits who decided enough was enough concerning the "Minneapolis punk scene". These people were not part of the "inner circle", were shunned by the "rich kids", the "punkers", "junkers", "rockers", "scum-buckets", "skitzoids", "polite-rockers", "art-rockers", "country-fakes", and "hipsters" who tried to run the small dirty town known as Minneapolis. Now lets talk about long ago, in the olden days when there was a Minnesota woman named Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Laura Ingalls Wilder, hardly a "punk", lived the events described in her Little House books. As a young girl, she traveled with her parents Gene, and Sarah and her older sister, Mary, in a covered wagon across Minnesota, Iowa, and Kansas, and into Indian Territory, where they lived in the Little House on the Prairie. Then the family traveled back to western Minnesota and lived on the banks of Plum Creek. Finally, they went west again and settled on the shores of Silver Lake in Dakota Territory.

Wilder's stories let readers see how pioneers lived in the 1870s and 1880s. The Ingalls family suffers through everything from grasshopper plagues to threats from hostile Indians, but their sense of fun, love, and family closeness never fades. The punk rockers of Minneapolis on the other hand just acted like they lived through hard times, nothing I may add, like the struggles of the Wilders. Wilder won many honors for her books, which have been translated into 26 languages and were turned into a popular television series back when "the H�skers" were just a few "confused young men".

How did Laura Ingalls Wilder become a first-time book author at age 65? Guts! It started with a letter from her daughter, Rose, a writer. Rose urged her mother to write down some of the stories she used to tell during Rose's childhood, and Little House in the Big Woods was born. It was also born from a drive deep within her bosom. A toughness unlike the flakes who frequent places like the 7th Street Entry, or the now defunct Goofy's Upper Deck.

Full blast is like that. A "real-thing" band suffering from the trials and tribulations of the early pioneers. Full Blast is "Pioneer-Rock" a new wave that blasted onto the scene in 1984 and blew it all away. This site is just the beginning...There is no end in sight, not for FULL BLAST!

Full Blast is about being a loner. We are not "joiners" Never have been, never will be. We did not join the E.S.S.C. (East Side Slam Connection) in 1984! If we would have, we would have had a record deal in a snap! But in that case the price was too high. Once your soul is sold, you must live as a rented ghost. This was not the choice for us so we suffered. In the long run things paid off and the road we chose was the narrow path. THE TRUE PATH! We still march to the tune of a different drummer and this beat is evident in our music. Our music is unique, not because we try to make it that way but because we can't help it. Full Blast is one of the top music groups to come out of Minneapolis since THE TRASHMEN. We carry on a fine tradition of entertainment and quality songwriting and this sets us apart from the "punk scene" The punk rockers had no talent. We have talent...barrels full of it!

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers. -Kahlil Gibran.
