Thank you for investigating this tablature.  Laughing Gravy's
music represents an eclectic mix of influences, ranging from
punk and heavy metal to brit-pop and euro-dance styles.  The
band is comprised of Matthew "Matt" Lanoue (vocals, guitar,
programming) and Charles "Chad" Garland (guitar, bass, pro-
gramming), each of whom attended, and subsequently graduated
from, Western Illinois University (located in the subdued, yet
thriving, non-metropolis of Macomb).  Please submit all
