Band History

Punk band from Madison (or surrounding area...)

One Day Away was a band with 3 high school age angst ridden youth, and one mature college student (Nate Greer). Mostly played some type of east coast hardcore sounding stuff, and screamed about history and cliche political stuff. Also we (I) didn't like smoking. We lasted about two years and then split 'cause we mostly wanted to kill each other at practice. Jesse now works at Mendota Mental Hospital, Luke at a cafe here in Madison, and Nate has gone on to greater things. The last time I saw Nate he was in a crazy good jazz band and had started smoking weed (he used to be straight edge). I am a student at the UW Madison studying Psychology and Language and Cultures of Asia. Anybody got an extra copy of our record? e-mail me if you do. adfrancis@wisc.edu -Toaster (Andy Francis)

Comments

  • luke is all in a huff about the "lookin good luke" thing. His panties are in a knot.
  • Well, that's how he was known back then. Plenty of people used to be known by other names, or nicknames but nowadays won't admit to it, or have a problem with it. Lighten up Luke! --Pete Prodoehl 06:54, 11 Jun 2006 (PDT)
  • I'm not in a huff so much as I am sad than in all honesty i never lived up to the nickname. "Not Overly Ugly Luke" would have been more appropriate. -Luke
