About Me |
|
At first taste, The Dimes may remind you of a piece of peppermint candy peppermint candy you found in the pocket of an old sweater that’s been hiding in the back of your closet for sometime. Initially you hesitate, but then you take a bite and suddenly your mouth is exploding with a cool, fresh, minty flavor that makes you feel like you just brushed your teeth. Currently the guys enjoy listening to artists such as Peter Bjorn and John , Black Rebel Motorcycle Club , The Arcade Fire , Iron and Wine , Matt Pond PA , The Shins , Fernando , Radiohead , The Magic Numbers , The Decemberists , Dolorean , and The Beatles . When not rehearsing, recording, and playing Guitar Hero on PS2, you may find the guys loitering in the North Mississippi neighborhood of Portland, Oregon , where Pierre has been sighted carrying on long conversations with himself. Please be patient with him.
