We were in a mad search for a name and, one day at a video store, we (Jared and Cory) saw one of those molded collector's mugs.  I'm pretty sure they only had a few different characters - all from Star Trek the Next Generation show - and one of us, seeing the Troi mug, said "heh - drinking coffee from counselor troi's head...".  We laughed, and it was the band's name for our first 16 years.  now we're just called TROI.

Drums, Guitars, Bass, Vocals, Roland Juno 60 synth, Various Keyboards, Lots & LOTS of Effect Pedals, more and more.....

Hey man, good to hear from you guys.  Were doing ok, kinda.  Practicing has been difficult due to lack of a practice space, but were getting one soon so once we do get some shows Im sure, hopefully at least one before our drummer leaves.  How are you guys doing?

Hey guys, havnt talked to you fuckers in a while!  How has it been?  Played any shows lately?  Seriously, if you ever come our way, or if we come yours we most definately need to play a show together.  Im sure our combined noise would melt peoples faces or bring down the venue...or both!
