Thomas Campbell was brought in to fill the role vacated by E.J.. With help from the band, E. J. was flown in to guest perform with them one weekend during Texas Renaissance Festival that year.

The Rogues Made in Texas,' the newest from The Rogues, is a rockin', high energy double CD that promises a very good listen. Although recorded live, it is studio quality sound, with graphics to match. This hour and a half long double CD puts you in the front row at a Rogues show. Recorded at McGonigel's Mucky Duck Pub in Houston, hear The Rogues at their best with rockin', high-energy sets, as well as beautiful, inspirational pipe tunes. The band is joined by a few musician friends, creating a fantastic ensemble blend of bagpipes with drums, electric guitar, bass, keyboard, French horn, and flute. Listen to The Rogues bring the house down, (yes, they were dancing on the tables), and have the best time you've had in a while.

The Rogues 'Off Kilter' is a distinctly modern approach to piping and drumming. But, unlike many of today's Celtic music groups, The Rogues don't seem to have much time for synthesizers or anything electronic, for that matter. With only one exception, their stuff is done using traditional instruments.Their music, though, is anything but traditional. 'Off Kilter' is a ceilidh of musical surprises, the most intriguing of which seem to be from piper Lars Sloan. Three tracks in particular - 'Miss. P.,' ''Scuse Me?' and 'Guinness Dog' - are wonderfully creative. From the dog barking samples in 'Guinness Dog' to the bizarre vocal interjections in ''Scuse Me?,' Sloan's compositions put an accent on fun, and usually come up with a percussion groove that makes the pipe music surge.

The Rogues This album is dedicated to the memory of our good friend, Jeff 'Mayhem' Thompson. The powerful tune, 'The Warrior's Salute,' is named in his honor. We'd like to thank everyone in the Rogues family for being so supportive through the good times and the bad... without you we are dust. We'd also like to thank all of our friends and family for the way they keep the faith, keep us sane, and keep us coming home. Likewise, meeting and befriending Frank Thompson and all of Mayhem's family has been the brightest part of a dark year. Finally, we'd like to thank Mayhem for showing us that heroes do indeed walk the Earth.
