MUNICIPAL WASTE - DAVE WITTE SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN 88BOADRUM SPONSORED BY NIKE

MUNICIPAL WASTE drummer Dave Witte has been selected as one of 88 drummers
who will participate in the Brooklyn portion of 88BoaDrum, sponsored by
Nike.

Conceived by the Japanese psych-noise group, BOREDOMS, 88BoaDrum is an
original 88-minute composition that will be performed by 88 drummers in Los
Angeles, CA and Brooklyn, NY on August 8th, 2008 (8/8/08). The bi-coastal
performances of 88BoaDrum will be sponsored by Nike who will be giving away
limited-edition, hand-screened t-shirts to members of the audience.

Each drummer was hand-picked by BOREDOMS and Dave Witte has the distinction
of being the only metal drummer out of the 88 selected, making his
participation all the more prestigious. Taken aback by the honor, Dave Witte
stated very simply, "I'm a lucky dog."

You can catch MUNICIPAL WASTE drummer, Dave Witte at the Brooklyn
performance.

Locations and times are as follows:

8:08 PM EST Williamsburg Waterfront - Brooklyn, NY
8:08 PM PST La Brea Tar Pits - Los Angeles, CA

Tickets to this unique drumming-as-art event are free and are being given
away at several locations around the greater Los Angeles and New York City
areas.
