Hey maybe it's some TMNT fans...or maybe Casey Jones is someone else and I'm not aware of.

I think this band is named after a XIXth-century railroad engineer from Illinois who was killed in a locomotive accident. I reckon Casey was named after him as well.

There's a Casey Jones Locomotive Park in the South....I definatly wanna go to it someday. Plus the train in Dumbo was named after him, Casey Jr.

So there's a band called Casey Jones? That album cover looks like it's dedicated to the Marines.

But of course in searching for songs by em all I find are all the versions of The Ballad of Casey Jones (which is an awesome song about the railroad engineer).

According to Wikipedia they're a straight edge hard core band. Which for me means that I probably wouldn't like their music. meh.

But there's also a blues/jazz band called Casey Jones and Her Engineers...:lol:

There is a Grateful Dead song called Casey Jones as well, and that one is about the railroad engineer as well.

Wasn't the Casey from "Casey at Bat" also named Casey Jones?

Now that I think about it, a little while ago, I was at a friend's house, and he is into that kind of hardcore-y music, and I noticed the CD in with his other ones, and I went home and listened to it, and I actually didnt like it at all.
