Jammin' Jelly
Update!! Ballz here ...Apparently people have been visiting this page (shockingly enough) all this time and I thought an update was deserved. Jammin' Jelly was 3 1/2 years ago, believe it or not, my senior year in high school. Although JJ was tons of fun and a big success, it never lasted beyond the first "album" (if you want to call it that). We have all moved on:
Wings: just finished freshman
year in psychology at Mount Union College
Roids: my Akron U
homey...he just finished his sophomore year
Ballz: I'm now a biology
student of all things at Akron U...should graduate next spring
Wiggy: just finished his
freshman year in biology at Case Western University
Judo: Akron U student in
engineering...doing internships now
Daddy Longlegs: still
trying to figure out what to do at Kent State...now has afro!
Puck: about to graduate
(wow)
Rak: about to graduate at go to
Syracuse
Well if you have any questions or comments about JJ go ahead and email us at jammin_jelly@geocities.com or you can also email me at mbowes80@hotmail.com

"Wow. Just when I
thought that civilization couldn't get any lower, I saw
this. I cried
myself to sleep. Really. Is something wrong with the
water
in Stow or what? I pray everyday that you guys will someday become
normal,
functioning members of society."

What do we
do?
Jammin Jelly
is a musical ensemble of sorts and also a community organization of sorts.
While in the studio (band room) we kick up and record phat jams and explore the
boundaries of freestyle improvised jamming. We use a large variety of
styles such as metal jams, china jams, vocal jams, soul jams, etc.
On the road, Jammin Jelly becomes a community entertainment engine. We take part in countless acts of frivelous nonsense such as launching Jammin Jelly chinese fire drills, terrorizing drive-thru clerks and being rowdy in general.
Our last main mission is exploration of digital recording and editing. We record our jams and hi-jinx using a Sony mini-disc recorder and then edit them via computer. We are currently preparing to release our first CD this Spring at the Stow High School Bands Spring Concert.
