Ring of Fire |
I fell in to a burning ring of fire, I went down, down, down and
the flames went higher, and it burns, burns, burns, the ring of
fire, the ring of fire. |
| 3.29.06 |
Warm |
The weather is warmer today. That is good for us and good for

Good Day |
I've got to say......it was a good day. |
| 3.27.06 |
Spring |
Spring is almost here and we're happy. |
| 3.26.06 |
Age |
Once I had myself a million, now i've only got a dime......the
difference doesn't seem quite as bad today, with a nickel or a
million I was searching all the time-for something that I never
lost or left behind. I've traded love for pennies, sold my soul
for less, lost my ideas in that long tunnel of time.......Now i'm in my second circle and i'm headin' for
the top, I learned a lot of things along the way, I'll be
careful while i'm climbing cause it hurts a lot to drop, when
you're down nobody gives a damn anyway......... |
| 3.24.06 |
Weekend |
Have a great weekend and ponder this thought while you're at it:
A man needs a little madness, or else he never dares cut the
rope and be free. |
| 3.23.06 |
Spring? |
Hopefully Spring will be here soon.......then we can all hang out on
the roof. |
| 3.22.06 |
New Songs |
As I live and breath, you have killed me.... you have killed me,
yes I walk around-somehow-but you have killed me, you have
killed me. Anyway we recorded two new songs,
Let's Go and
Hello Goodbye.
|
| 3.10.06 |
Velvet Lounge |
Get ready for Velvet Lounge tonight, it's going to be a blast we
promise. |
| 3.9.06 |
True Faith |
I feel so extraordinary, somethin's got a hold on me, I get this
feeling i'm in motion, a certain sense of liberty, chances are
we've gone too far.............. I used to think that the day
would never come, that my life would depend on the morning sun,
my morning sun is the drug that brings me here..... |
| 3.8.06 |
The bar |
Sometimes you eat the bar and sometimes the bar eats you. |
| 3.7.06 |
Hi |

This Week |
We're playing at the Velvet Lounge this Friday, it's going to be
great, we promise. |
| 3.3.06 |
Ice Cream |
Lemonade is good but ice cream is even better, especially rocky
road. |
| 3.2.06 |
Lemons |
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. It may not taste
good but at least it's something. |
| 2.28.06 |
Doughnuts |
Sometimes you just want a doughnut and then when you finally get
one it's just not as great as you thought it would be and you're
like "oh well." |
| 2.24.06 |

| 2.13.06 |
New York |
New York was fun. We got snowed in on Sunday and had to come
back a day late but it was worth it. New York City was very
quiet after getting 2ft of snow and we tried to go shopping in
the blizzard but it proved to be difficult. On the way
home we got a flat tire at an overpass on the New Jersey
Turnpike, it was very scary. Somehow we made it out alive.
Thanks to everyone who came out to the Delancey show. We'll have
pictures for you soon. |
| 2.09.06 |

neighbors even came over to eat it. Maybe we'll make some
again. We're excited about our upcoming shows! The Warehouse in
DC and the Delancey in NYC. There will be after parties and
such. |
| 1.12.06 |
OMD |
If you leave, don’t leave now, Please don’t take my heart away,
Promise me just one more night, Then we’ll go our separate ways, We always had time on our
sides, Now it’s fading fast, Every second every moment, We’ve
got to--we’ve gotta make it last.....If you leave I won’t cry, I
won’t waste a single day, But if you leave no don’t look back,
I’ll be running the other way, Seven years went under the
bridge, Time was standing still, Heaven knows what happens
now,You’ve got to--you’ve gotta say you will................I
touch you once I touch you twice, I won’t let go at any price I need you now like I needed you then, You always said we’d
still be friends someday, Someday, If you leave, Oh if you leave..................Oh if you leave.
Meow. |
| 1.11.06 |
Life |
Life is strange and unpredictable, you never know what to
expect. All the more reason to come to our Warehouse show
on the 20th. It may change your life.... |
| 1.10.06 |
Getting Ready |
We're getting ready for our Warehouse show still and we just won
the lottery so maybe we'll go on a world tour. First we
may be making a couple pit stops, starting at the insane
asylum.....then onto Japan. |
| 1.09.06 |
Warehouse Show |
We're preparing for our
Warehouse show on the 20th, there will
be an after party but we won't tell you where it is unless you
come to the show. |
| 1.08.06 |
Sleeping |
Sleepin' is givin' in, no matter what the time is, sleepin' is
givin' in so lift those heavy eyelids, people say that you die
faster than without water, oh we know it's just a lie, scare
your son, scare your daughter.......people say that your dreams
are the only things that save you.... |
| 1.07.06 |
Saturday |
Tonight we might go to the 930 club to see the Pietasters but
first we're going to Coppi's to eat pizza with shrimps on it and
have a bottle of wine. Thank you and goodnight. |
| 1.06.06 |
January |
In my dreams I'm dying all the time, as I wake its kaleidoscopic
mind, I never meant to hurt you, I never meant to lie, so this is goodbye, this is goodbye, tell
the truth you never wanted me.....tell me......In my dreams I'm jealous all the time, as I wake
I'm going out of my mind, going out of my mind.....all the time. |
| 1.05.06 |
Happy New Year |
We're back and ready to rock. We've also brushed up on our
French a bit......feel free to let us translate something for
you. |
| 12.23.05 |
Til' next year |
Happy Holidays to everyone......we'll see you next year.......starting
at the Warehouse on January 20th. Au Revoir. |
| 12.22.05 |
Someday..... |
Someday we can all look back on this and just
laugh................. |
| 12.21.05 |
Winter is here |
Do you realize that you have the most beautiful face.......do
you realize we're floating in space......do you realize that
happiness makes you cry....do you realize that everyone, you
know, someday, will die.......so instead of saying all of your
goodbyes let them know you realize that life goes fast, it's
hard to make the good things last, you realize the sun doesn't
go down....it's just an illusion caused by the
world.....spinning round. |
| 12.20.05 |
Tomorrow |
Winter begins tomorrow. We'll be indoors relaxing and enjoying
hot chocolate. At least the sun is out today. We are
anticipating a few things, one being the start of the New Year
and another finding out if we won the raffle at the local town
fair. Go Five Four! |
| 12.19.05 |
Almost Winter |
There were six men in Birmingham, In Guildford there's four,
That were picked up and tortured And framed by the law, And the filth got promotion, But they're
still doing time, For being Irish in the wrong place, And at the
wrong time
In Ireland they'll put you away in the Maze, In England they'll
keep you for several long days God help you if ever you're caught on these shores, And the
coppers need someone And they walk through that door.....You'll be counting years
first five, then ten, growing old in a lonely hell, round the
yard and stinking cell, from wall to wall and back
again.......... |
| 12.18.05 |
Blue Umbrella |
Blue Umbrella rest upon my shoulder, hide the pain while the
rain makes up my mind, well my feet are wet from thinking this
thing over, and it's been so long since I felt the warm
sunshine. Just give me one good reason, and I promise I won't
ask you anymore, just give me one extra season......so I can
figure out the other four. Well daytime makes me wonder why you
left me, nighttime makes me wonder what I said. Next time are
the words I'd like to plan on....the last time was the only
thing you said.....a blue umbrella rest upon my shoulder. |
| 12.17.05 |
Saturday |
We saw
The Antiques tonight at the Warehouse and they were
awesome. Gregg rocked them into the ground! Then we went
to the Black Cat to see The Whips and Army of Me who rocked as
well, we missed The Bonapartes but heard they were good. Then
they kicked us out so we went home and slept. |
| 12.16.05 |
Pogues et al |
Well Pogues 930 club tickets are sold out. Probably because we
bought them all, sorry! We'll be dancing to the Irish Rover all
by ourselves in March. We're done for shows for this year but
next year will be exciting we promise. NYC is on the list..... |
| 12.15.05 |
Dreams |
We will be on a tropical island in two weeks. We're very
excited.......one sweet dream, pick up the bags get in the
limousine, soon we'll be away from here step on the gas and wipe
that tear away, one sweet dream....came true.....today......came
true......today.....yes it did. |
| 12.14.05 |
Last Night |
IOTA was fun last night.....we highly recommend it. We even
received a free meal, pasta primavera. Apparently they only
serve one dish to the bands so if you don't like pasta primavera
you're screwed but we liked it so it's okay. There was a
man there that wanted to kiss everyone's hand in the band except
for Aaron's. Sorry Aaron, maybe next time. |
| 12.13.05 |
IOTA |
We're playing IOTA tonight and we're psyched! Come on out and
dance........there's no need to compromise.....i'm dreamin' bout
those dreamy eyes.....i never knew i never knew....see you
there. |
| 12.12.05 |
Which way? |
Wait.........they don't love you like I love you.....wait they don't
love you like I love you, maps, maps, maps, maaaaaps,
wait.......they don't love you like I love you. Happy
Monday....... |
| 12.11.05 |
Memories |
Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splickly out to my
old '55, as I drove away slowly, feeling so holy, god knows I
was feeling alive.....now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with
Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks, stars beginning to fade, and
I lead the parade.......now it's six in the morning..... |
| 12.10.05 |
Rev it up |
Into your soul, I tried to climb but found the hole too high,
for me to leave the way I'd learned and found I couldn't
turn....the way the trees and falling rain remind me in a
way...... |
| 12.09.05 |
Back up |
Our website is back up, it was temporarily suspended due to a
billing issue. We're back and more excited than ever. We ate
pizza last night at Coppi's in DC, it was good. The shrimp pizza
was the best. We highly recommend it. |
| 12.08.05 |
Time to get down |
I'm not internationally known but I'm known to rock the
microphone because I get stupid I mean outrageous stay away from
me if you're contagious. |
| 12.07.05 |
Crown of Love |
I wrote your name....across my eyelids.....you pray for
rain......I pray for blindness........ |
| 12.06.05 |
Let it be..... |
And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines
on me......shine on till tomorrow, let it be. |
| 12.05.05 |
December 5th |
The Black Cat was fun last night. Black cat...black
cat...........now it's Monday morning but we're doing okay
really. Thanks to Katie for singing back-up on Eurotrash, you
rock! We didn't forget to collect our money this time. It's hard
being independently wealthy. |
| 12.04.05 |
Heroes |
I, I wish I could swim, like dolphins, like dolphins can
swim.....though nothing, nothing will keep us together,
we can beat them forever and ever.........oh we can be heroes.......if just
for one day.......I, I will be king and you, you will be queen,
though nothing will drive them away....we can be heroes, just
for one day. |
| 12.03.05 |
Hello |
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back. |
| 12.02.05 |
Black Cat |
We are excited for our Black Cat show on Sunday. Come out and
rock with us. |
| 12.01.05 |
December |
It's December, yeah. It's bittersweet, sweet yet bitter but
sweet overall. One month until Kiki's birthday and the end of
the world. We'll be on an island in the West Indies for that
though so don't worry. |
| 11.30.05 |
You might think |
You might think I'm crazy, to hang around
with you, maybe you think I'm lucky, to have something to do,
but I think that you're wild, and inside me is some
child........ You might think it's foolish, or maybe it's untrue, you might
think I'm crazy, but all I want is you. |
| 11.29.05 |
Thanks |

DC9 Pics |

with rockstars on tour. |
| 11.10.05 |
Four Five |
A long long time ago in a galaxy far far away
there existed another band called Four Five. Four Five has
now returned and is attempting to overthrow Five Four. We
must band together to defend ourselves from the wrath of Four
Five. Plus we're taller. Alright this was just a
nightmare one of us had. |

our unheated practice room.....to the tower! |
| 11.01.05 |
November |
It's November. We think that is a good sign.
October was good but November will be better; only two months until
the end of civilization as we know it. |

Lady Rockers |
Five Four is in the spotlight on DC's
"Lady Rockers" in the
Washington Post |
| 09.20.05 |
Benefit Show |
The Florida House benefit was a great success
and raised over a thousand dollars! |
| 09.18.05 |
Drum issues |
At College Perk, we were actually too loud and
were asked to "turn down" the drums... At the Florida House, the drummer from Thomas Lunch
and the Drugs was very nice to play drums for Eurotrash because
Aaron was out of town.
He did a great job stepping in at literally the last minute. |
| 09.12.05 |
Fundraiser |
Five Four is playing an "acoustic" set for the 9/17 Hurricance Katrina benefit. It's for
a good cause, so please come and have fun. Doors open at 5pm, bands play at 8pm, DJs spin from 1-4am. |
| 09.09.05 |
Interview |
Read about our struggles and triumphs in "Girl Bands on the Grind" by Washingtonpost.com/MP3. Five Four's song SG is also an editor's pick: "Guitars pulled into soft distortions by effects pedals create a mesmerizing little song. The chorus is a simple sigh of "I love you.""
|
| 09.01.05 |
Updates |
Some shows in October, live recordings and an interview (Band) from the WMUC Radio show. |
| 08.29.05 |
Show photos |
Photos from the WMUC Radio and Pianos gigs were posted.
(OK, so Mark Wahlberg did not actually go to the party)... See
Kiki kick! |
| 08.23.05 |
NYC recap |
Our "special early feature" at Pianos coincided with a benefit party for the HBO TV show "Entourage".
We rubbed shoulders with Marky Mark and other cast and crew. Unfortunately, none of us are familar with the show...
Thanks for everyone's support, for the sandwiches made by the designated driver who ended up having too many drinks,
for the cooler that was sadly left behind on a Brooklyn curb. Hopefully it will find a good home. |
| 07.19.05 |
Bio update |
The new bios accurately represent our distinct personalities in this band. See the new names that we've taken. |
| 07.13.05 |
Interview |
See our press mention (Band) by
DC Style Magazine for the Fort Reno Concert Series. Karen is no longer a shoegazer. |
| 06.29.05 |
Update |
Check out our new mp3, Crazy... Some
photos from Fort Reno were posted. Thanks, Katie! |
| 06.23.05 |
Hiatus |
Fort Reno was a blast, we decided we need to
spend time outside more often so we're taking a vacation! We'll
be back in July with new songs & shows. |
| 06.08.05 |
New shows |
A couple new shows just announced, including Fort Reno in DC on
Monday, June 20th! We'll be playing some new songs. |
| 06.07.05 |
Music update |
2 new songs were posted, My Love Song and a Eurotrash remix.
Other songs (and shows) are coming soon.
|
| 04.29.05 |
Break |
Next month, we're going to record some new songs, and
2 of Five Four is turning "25". The rest of the band may also decide to be 25...
There were no PA speakers at Cafe Nema, but the singers were able to use a
keyboard amp. Not sure if anyone could even hear them, but it was good to know
that keyboard amps aren't completely useless. |
| 04.24.05 |
Free show |
For a change of pace, we're playing at the
restaurant Cafe Nema this Thursday. Eat, drink and be
merry... Thank you to those who caught our recent show. |
| 04.04.05 |
Hard at work |
Our sets have been a little short, but that's
going to change. We're working on several new songs
for our upcoming show, and we think they sound pretty cool.
|
| 03.15.05 |
Velvet show |
It was great to see a packed house on Saturday.
Thanks for all your support! People even laughed at Kiki's
cupcake joke. If you weren't there, you missed a lot: we
played a great new song by Karen; Kiki warmed up with the
"Immigrant Song"; Aaron dressed nicer than the girls; Jamie let
loose during Eurotrash; Sera sat down and tried to rock out
more. |
| 02.07.05 |
New songs |
2 new mp3s are up. Enjoy... DC9 had its 1
year anniversary party this past Saturday. It was a lot of
fun -- they spinned Eurotrash, and Kiki actually breakdanced!
Give her enough drinks and maybe she'll breakdance at one of our
shows. |
| 02.05.05 |
DC9 snow |
Some photos from the Jan 30 show were posted.
Thanks to everyone who came in spite of the snow. We were
excited to play our first show at DC9, and the only drawback was
carrying our gear up iced-over wooden steps. Anyone want
to be a Five Four roadie? We'll give you a drink ticket and
a band sticker. |
| 01.27.05 |
Wash Post plug |
It was a nice surprise to see that our "off-brand dancy
synth rock" is a WashingtonPost.com pick for Sunday, Jan. 30. Maybe
this plug will bring a horde of new fans to our DC9 show. |
| 01.21.05 |
Website redesign |
The redesigned website is up. Big thanks to
Steven for the terrific logo and site. |
| 01.07.05 |
Bluestate party |
Eurotrash will be spinned at the Bluestate party on Saturday, Jan. 8, 2005 at the Black Cat backstage. Great music, giveaways, no cover. We'll be there dancing to our own song. Let's see how crazy Jamie gets! |
| 01.05.05 |
Eurotrash posted |
A Eurotrash remix was posted to the Music page. It's our first and only dance/pop/new wave song, unlike anything else we play. So we're not really a dance band. |
