Energetic songs from The Hollywood Ten can be heard in the Week 3 and Week 5 webisodes. It's hard for us to imagine the "party sequence" in Week 5 with any other song than Three Licks. You can buy their music here.

Used throughout Bandcycle (extensively in weeks 1 and 2) Gabrahm Vitek lent an upbeat, jazz/pop sound to several of our biking sequences. You can buy their latest album on the band's website.
King Tut - Contributing Artist
Mon, Jan 24, 2011
Bandcycle director Dry Bones has been a fan of King Tut for several years. Their rowdy, rhythmic music has been a perfect fit for the series' soundtrack. Check out our favorite songs "Here It Is And There It Goes" and "Luke's Hymn" on their myspace page.

Week 5 Webisode: Witchitalkin 'bout?
Mon, Oct 18, 2010
Wichita, Kansas
It rained. It poured. An old man snored. It didn't actually rain that much.
Lawrence, Kansas

Lawrence, Kansas
It rained for once. And it was cold. Don't worry, we're okay.
Everybody in Kansas hypes Lawrence. "You've got to go to Lawrence," they say. They say it with energy, and that makes the difference. It's more like "You've GOT to go to LAWRENCE!"
Lawrence is to Kansas what Athens is to Ohio, and Bloomington to Indiana. It's a college-town, and because of that, it is a hub for culture and arts in an sea of farmland. Unfortunately, it's not yet college basketball season, so we didn't get to check out the Jayhawks in action (their football team isn't good, so we ignored it).
Kansas City

Kansas City, Missouri
We've had the same weather this whole trip.
It's Maj. I took down Dan's rhyming title "Kansas City - Manwich Pity" because I didn't get it. We're delayed in writing this post, and I already forget Kansas City. The downtown was very clean, I remember that much.
Meet me in St. Louis

St Louis, Missouri
We spent the last couple days in St. Louis, Missouri - The Gateway to the West. Dan and I had some fun crossing the Mississippi River and photographed ourselves between the state lines of Illinois and Missouri. Also, I tried Arby's for the first time in my life. It tasted great, but I don't know if it that's because it was actually good, or if I was just really hungry from back-to-back 80+ mile biking days.
