Trading in the Badge…

February 26th, 2007

After many months of touring, a lot of bad Axel Foley jokes, and countless people saying “dark side of the what?” when we told them our band name, Dark Side of the Cop is retiring. We had a good run. We’ll still be making new music but it won’t synch up to anything and there will be no more hidden Mikey Tandino references. Roger and Marco will be making new music under the name Fior Fiero, and we’ll be putting out a new EP on Auger Down this spring. We’d like to thank Ty, Joe, Claire and everyone else who worked on DSOTC and especially everyone that came to see us play.
