“Mishey Touchie / The Touchies: “ Well, the strangest thing to happen to me on stage, happened without me even knowing about it. My old band Happy Endings and I were playing a gig at a coffee shop that use to be across from SDSU. It was a daytime show and I was a little bummed because only about 10 to 15 people showed up. So because of that I wanted to play a short set and really didn't put my heart into the show. Well after we played we walked outside and Ben Folds was sitting outside. He had just done a soundcheck for X-Fest nearby and he could totally hear us from where he was standing. I felt like playing the show again. Like "this is how we really sound when I'm not being a primadonna because only 10 people showed up". So there's a lesson learned: always play your best, cause you never know who's listening.””

— Bart Mendoza, San Diego Reader

“On Friday, July 13, the Whistle Stop will throw a free show with the Touchies, the New Kinetics, and DJ Robin Roth, all dressed in comic-themed costumes (which attendees are encouraged to wear as well). According to Mishey Touchie, "The New Kinetics are going as characters from the Scott Pilgram comic. The Touchies are going as characters from the comic movie Battle Royal. It's the movie where all the school kids are sent to the island and they have to stay and basically kill each other, until one kid is left standing. I've tried to explain it to people, but all they say is 'You mean like Hunger Games?' I'm not too sure about that, I've never seen Hunger Games."”

““Roller derby puts the ‘roll’ in ‘rock and roll,’””

— Jay Allen Sanford, San Diego Reader

"Time to bust out the champagne: The San Diego Music Foundation announced the nominees for the 2011 San Diego Music Awards today."

— Peter Holslin, San Diego City Beat

“Garage-rockers The KABBs and pop-punks The Touchies will celebrate the release of their new CDs at Whistle Stop Bar on Friday, May 13. Robin Roth and Jaime Ali will DJ.”

— Peter Holslin, San Diego City Beat

"SAN DIEGO PUNK ROCK-N-ROLL BAND, THE TOUCHIES ARE OFFICIALLY LOOKING FOR A NEW DRUMMER!!! "

— Cathryn Beeks, Listen Local SD

“The Touchies launch two new CDs at the Whistle Stop on May 13, one all-original and another featuring comedic covers. “The title of our originals album, Friends of the Friendless, came from an episode of I Love Lucy, where Lucy encounters a musical group by that name that welcomes anyone to jam along,” says Stanze Touchie. As for the covers album, “The name David Cover-Riverdale is a play on David Coverdale of Whitesnake and Riverdale, the fictitious town where Josie and the Pussycats are from.” Attendees who buy the originals album get the covers LP for free.”

— Jay Allen Sanford , The San Diego Reader

“It’s something that you listen to that’s fast and makes you want to run around in a mosh pit. Metal is more my preference, but I play guitar and I’ve had some punk influen/ This seems a little more mainstream than a lot of older punk — more [influenced by] American punk than British punk. The lyrics were about partying — stuff that’s pretty punk. It’s short and sweet, how punk songs should be.”

— Brian Carver / Jimmy Wigdahl, The San Diego Reader
