“Carl Rufh,fellow band member to Jim Preimel came to the defense of Jim after the incident on Rodeo drive last week when this reporter was assaulted. Carl pleaded insanity on behalf of Jim the drummer man, stating that," It was the heat of Los Angeles paired with sleep deprivation that caused the drummer to fly of the handle like that."The Judge let Jim off with a $500.00 fine and two weeks of community service and was ordered to take Anger Management courses.”

“Jim Preimel of the DC Poets was spotted last Friday night on Rodao Drive in Beverly Hills shopping for Gucci drum sticks and a hand made cowbell worn by the original "Daisy" Jersey cow. When pressed by this reporter to explain, why the extravagance. The Percussionist of the Durham County Poets head butted me in the face and uttered profanities.”

“The sound of Durham County Poets, is New and Fresh yet Old and Classic at the same time, it's like an old comfortable pair of shoes swimming in febreeze.”
