Warp 11 is an independent rock band from Sacramento, California, that performs original songs with lyrics entirely about Star Trek. Warp 11 music covers a wide range of styles including alternative, classic rock, punk, country and blues. Their lyrics are humorous and sometimes profane. Warp 11 was interviewed in the Paramount Pictures documentary Trekkies 2. The Warp 11 song "Everything I Do, I Do with William Shatner" was included in the television broadcast of the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner. History In 1996, Karl Miller was working for an Internet broadcasting company, Play TV, making a streaming Internet video show about Star Trek. Karl decided to form a band that only sang songs about Star Trek to fill time on the show. He had already been in bands with Jeff Hewitt as a teenager and the rest of the band fell into place quickly. Warp 11 formed in 1999 with Karl Miller, Brian Moore, Jeff Hewitt, and Kiki Stockhammer. Starting in 2005, John Merlino, although not an official member of Warp 11, could often be seen playing drums for Warp 11 during concerts to allow Hewitt to take center stage (or to relieve him when he was injured and couldn't play a full set, since Warp 11's sets averaged close to two hours at that time) and was soon given the rank of ensign. At a September 22, 2007 performance in San Francisco, Merlino played drums for the entire show, and during the performance Miller hinted that Hewitt had left the band due to physical problems resulting from numerous injuries. Merlino was promoted from "ensign" to "number one" (commander or first officer) at that show. Miller stated that Hewitt may return occasionally to lend his vocal talents, which he did for the CD release performance of "Suck My Spock Some More".
