For anyone who's been contemplating picking up our CD, you can now do so directly from us in our new online store. T-shirts and more are available too. This is by fat the most effective way to support us: http://district97.net/merch.html

Here are some quotes regarding D97 from folks you may know:

Bill Bruford: I love the CD...the sheer skill and gusto with which they tackle it makes you laugh out loud. Great drumming. Jonathan plays and writes like a demon. Congratulations to them. (Watch Bill and me duet! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izGV61jdyXc and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR7VPkaA_XE)

John Wetton (King Crimson, UK, Asia): 'Can't take you with me' is dynamite. I wish you luck, you're a good band, and deserve success, see you on the broad highway.

Roine Stolt (Flower Kings, Transatlantic): Your band is one of the very few I can see a real true potential in and I'm sure you have many new fabulous albums coming in the near future.

Jonas Reingold (Flower Kings, Karmakanic): Your band is great...I really dig your stuff, it would be fun to do something together in the future, keep up the good work, you´re one of the most talented progressive bands I´ve heard lately, good luck.

Jim Derogatis (NPR's "Sound Opinions", Rolling Stone Magazine): District 97 is a wildly ambitious progressive-rock group whose youth belies its accomplishments onstage and on its new "Hybrid Child" CD.

Paul Bielatowicz (Carl Palmer Band, Neal Morse): We made our way back to the hotel and I put on District 97's CD while finishing my nachos – what a GREAT album!

I have downloaded the CalProg album and it's very good. Must get round to hearing the studio album as well.

Watched it again . Reminds me a bit of Bill Bruford's first album Feels Good To Me with Annette Peacock on vocals. Wonder what Simon would think. If I were Simon I would say that it doesn't seem like a band. It seems like the latest chick singer prodigy and that she should slap her name on the band's name and call it the ( Chick's name ) Band. I'm not saying I didn't like it. Great musicianship but I just can't deal with the name of the band.
