Line Up Notes
- Although never an official member, Mike Ushinski frequently filled in on drums during several tours.
- Garrison's actual final shows were performed on a 2003 Japanese tour. This tour often does not appear in the official accounts of Garrison because of the odd lineup which excluded Grillo and found J. Morrissette on bass. The lineup was: Ed McNamara (guitar and vocal), J. Morrissette (bass), Mike Ushinski (drums), Taylor Bearfoot (guitar). Due to this odd final tour, McNamara is the only member of Garrison to play every show.
