Fan Page
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2000
This Page is primarily dedicated to letting you, present & future 'MalletHeads', know what is going on with the band BIG RUBBER MALLET, from Boston Massachusetts.
If you are coming from MP3.com and are new to this page, BIG RUBBER MALLET has graciously allowed this page to be their 'pipiline' to fans until their 'official' web site is up and running.
Since I also have the 'inside scoop' from Steve, Marc, & Jim of BIG RUBBER MALLET, I'll soon be posting show schedules, pictures, where & how to get the CD & mp3 files, and revealing flaky bits & chips about the band.
NOTE!! Page updates will now be bi-monthly or as new gigs are booked.

*BIG RUBBER MALLET has gone into the studio to start recording their 2nd effort! I heard some of the rough "instrument-only" tracks, and the new songs; "Burnt Orange Sun" and "He Said No" definately stand out!

***REVIEWS***
From 'THE NOISE';
"...This band can be likened to harder edged
bands that are currently on WAAF and
WBCN, (2 Boston FM radio stations), yet
BRM (Big Rubber Mallet), offers more bite
and substance rather than diluted,
commercial pop metal hooks...For a 6-song
CD, this work is cohesive and doesn't tire the
listener. I'd like to here a full length sometime
in the future."-John Stephen, reviewer for
"THE NOISE", July/August 2000.
