Capture The Flag Appresh

While this Downriver based three piece might not have been exactly hardcore, they were an amazing band and didn't sound like every other band out there. All three albums were and still are solid.

Anyone feel me on this?

They were great. Do me a favor and send me their discography please?

It'll have to be when I'm on a computer next.
I need your address so I can send you stuff.

You mean The Oven Mitts? Old shool, back in the day, I wouldn't haven't it anyother way?

I'm very down with both The Oven Mitts and Capture The Flag

Same band, different name, can you be down with the same 3 people twice? Not sure, either way the Oven Mitts demo was the best!!

I'm not sure how that works, so I said both just to be safe.

Ryan wasn't originally in The Oven Mitts.

This isn't Will from Hyde, is it?

This is Will from Toledo. My old band Next2Nothing played with the Oven Mitts and Capture The Flag all the time. All there off-shoot bands played my house shows in the late 90's Kiser Sosae and a couple others that escape me know. Ryan was the heavy bass player, correct? If he wasn't in the band in the very beginning, then he was shortly there after. I believe the first time we played with them was sometime in '97 and he was already in the band. This was before they put out that demo with Old School on it. Little known fact about Down River and Toledo hardcore, Jeff Tuttle was the orginal guitarist for Blue Skies Burning from Toledo, he played the first show and quit to keep focus on the Oven Mitts. Danny Garcia took his place after that, now he's in Preminitions Of War.

I recall seeing Next2Nothing with Capture The Flag, along with A Day in the Life AKA Hawthorne Heights. I ended up working with Jeff and Ryan and constantly saw Steve. I tried getting them to do a reunion show, but it didn't pan out. Jeff just got married and is on tour with The Dillinger Escape Plan. Ryan lost a lot of weight and runs the Hungry Howie's that I used to. Steve lives in New York, doing I don't k ow what.

To clear it up, I just asked Ryan. Apparently him and Steve were the original members of the OvenMitts Jeff was the last addition.
