Biography

There is more than one band named MAP:

1) Map began as a revolving door with one steady fixture: Josh Dooley. Dooley formed Map in the year 2000, and with the revolving door in affect, recorded two EPs: Eastern Skies, Western Eyes (Velvet Blue Music) and Teaching Turtles to Fly (Velvet Blue Music). These EPs served as an early showcase of Dooleys talents with special regard to creating melodies, writing hooks, and exercising guitar chops.

It wasnt until 2003, however, when Map released Secrets By The Highway (Velvet Blue Music), that his impressive musicianship was truly showcased. Then in the summer of 2004, Map released their second full length record, Think Like An Owner (Velvet Blue Music).

    I agree with you, Cyclone. Dooley's Map needs its own page.

    I really wish we could get a permanent picture of Josh Dooley's Map so whenever I listen to them I don't get this awful picture on my profile of the douches with the megaphone.

    Perhaps it would be much better if the page for Josh Dooley's MAP were "The band MAP" instead of just "MAP". You know, to avoid all of this confusion and mixing of bands.
