The Baked Buddies

The Baked Buddies were one of Cincinnati's most important rock bands from June, 1991 to January,1993. Formed by a group of real drunk LaRosa's workers and taking their name from the popular LaRosa's hoagie 'TheBaked Buddy', they took the scene by storm with their drunk punk metal rock. They didn't take their music too seriously and the object was for them and the crowd to just have a good time. Baked Buddies shows were just an excuse to have a party....................The Baked Buddies produced one tape. The legendary 7-song recording, "Case File Infinity" which was recently put into CD form. The songs on the "Case File Infinity" recording are 'The Monkey Song', 'Case File Infinity', 'Two Types to Try', 'Catch My Breath', 'Submerged', Grind,Baby', and the anthem 'Die All People We Hate'.....................Some of the bands The Baked Buddies opened for were Helios Creed (AmRep), Die Kreuzen (Touch&Go), The Oxymorons (one of Dayton's best ever), AMF (Cinci punk rockers that ruled), BuBu Klan (Cinci rap rockers that ruled) and Schwah (Cinci's greatest alternative band ever!)
