Links Page
Hopefully, this page
will be a comprehensive "One-Stop-Shop" links page to
satisfy your Silver Jet addiction. If any of the links are
outdated or if you know of a link that needs to be added, please
send an Email to scene@thepentagon.com with the subject heading Silver Jet
links and the page will be added here. (Pictured below from left to right: Grant
Conway (drummer, bg vocals), Luke Tierney (lead vocals,
guitarist), Jeff Gross (bass, bg vocals)
Instead of repeating any
information that other pages may already have, I will simply make
a link to it. For example, Lisa has been working very hard on
tracking down various rare Silver Jet records, and I have been
trying to compile Silver Jet's history. Since Jason has listed
Lisa's findings on his News Page, I will advise you to check out that page.
And for the history
of Silver Jet? I'm working on that. Check below for a taste of
what I have so far.

- A mini article on the Santa Barbara music scene
Just 98 miles
north of Los Angeles is the city of Santa Barbara, a
beautiful seaside community known for its quiet beaches
and great restaurants, not the kind of place you
associate with Rock n Roll. But no less than 8 years ago,
UGLY KID JOE and TOAD THE WET SPROCKET each went
platinum, proving that bands from Santa Barbara could get
record deals. Since then, things have been quiet, which
doesn't mean nothing's been happening. Because things are
beginning to happen again, local Indie label, MY RECORDS,
released NERF HERDER'S self-titled debut and it
immediately exploded on the college radio charts
prompting a huge bidding war. The band eventually signed
with Arista and are currently enjoying the success from
their single, "Van Halen". Poised for rockdom,
the band is now on tour with WEEZER. Another great
release on MY RECORDS is RIDEL HIGH'S High
Scores. With solid songwriting, great hooks and the
powerhouse drumming of Santa Barbara transplant, Steve
Coulter, RIDEL HIGH are always a treat to hear live. If
you cant see them, BUY THE RECORD! The Major Label role
models of this clan are SILVER JET (Virgin) and SUMMERCAMP (Maverick). With SILVER
JET set to release their debut in march and SUMMER
CAMP'S set for April, a whole new niche is about to be
cut in music. nd once again, the quiet beaches will get
noisy. Fans of Cheap Trick and 70s music in general will
definitely get a rise out of this one. Fans of Big Star
and Teenage Fanclub will be in 7th heaven from SUMMER
CAMPS disc. Look for both bands in a town near ou this
summer.
- Very small Silver Jet and Luke mention
Next Silverjet
bounded in, apparently late for the gig. (They're
actually signed to Virgin but were sandwiched in between
the two MCA acts.) They play extremely melodic classic
pop and quite fittingly, the singer Luke reminds me of
David Cassidy.
Wanna hear what we heard?
Wanna read what we read?
- Like Jason says, "(to)
find out what the hell Luke is singing," the lyrics for "Pull me up... Drag me
down..." is now available. Thanks to Jason, Grant,
and Allysa. I can pretty much recite most of the songs in
my sleep (If you don't have the CD, what're you waiting
for? Go!), but, hey! it's nice to know what Luke really
said. During live shows, he changes lyrics *grin*.

Where are they now?
You may be able to find
some of the answers to the trivia page on this page.
To understand and appreciate where
Silver Jet came from, here is a background of other bands they
were a part of before they became Silver Jet. Also, find out
where their former band mates are now.
Two of the earlier bands that Luke
was involved with was Lost Kittenz and Fizzy Bangers.
Jeff was in a band called Under
the Weather and Fizzy Bangers with Luke. (Go check out
the trivia
page).
