The Groovie Ghoulies were a punk rock'n'roll band from Sacramento, California consisting of Kepi, Roach, and Scampi. They were around for many years and committed themselves to being constantly, dedicatedly touring the world spreading Ghoulish Love. They broke up in May of 2007.
Every show is treated as an event. Since 1997 they have done 7 U.S. tours, 2 Canadian tour, and 3 European tours.
Beyond their B-movie, rock, and punk influences, the Ghoulies make the most of the touring life. They have forsaken the tired rock stereotypes of drugs and self-destruction to go to Mount Rushmore, Graceland, Roswell, or hang out with other bands.
Although it's nothing like a Kiss or Rob Zombie show, the Ghoulies decorate the stage with a few toys and things to provide themselves and the crowd a level of comfort and familiarity. Prizes are often thrown, requests are often taken.
