They Love us......and every city and show we play we
always get a great response from the crowds..... we think its cool when we found out some of our fans started calling themselves Outskirt Punx......
How long have you guys been a band? Well, this band has been a band for like 5 years.. but we were a band called "Pillow Fight", then about 1 year ago we changed the name of the band to The OUTSKiRTS
To you guys what is the best thing about playing Punk Rock? When we're on stage we come alive and put on a great FKIN SHOW!!!!! We don't care if your punk or not, even if you have a litlle bit of punk in you, even if it's the smallest amount, maybe a freakin punk blood cell, you will like us.
When and where was your first show?
Wow, we've played alot......let me think..... Oh yeah, our first show as The Outskirts was in Santa Barbara at The Creekside Inn
How did it go?
It was AWESOME...I remember some of the flyers for the show still had our old band name "Pillow Fight" on them and some had "The OUTSKiRTS" .......... They Love us in Santa Barbara, the place was packed , the pit was movin, beer was flying everywhere, everyone got wet from all the beer flying around... the band... the crowd. It was a freakin blast!!!!!!
What inspires your lyrics?
alcohol....... hahaha jk .........LIFE!
What bands have influenced your music the most?
I think inspiration comes from everything you hear, whether you like it or not.

punk so i guess a little of everyone that made it onto the radio
What is the title of your latest cd?
Our new cd is called " Shot of Life " its not released YET.......
