Buggys, Froggys, and Monkeys…oh my!


I’ve been trying to convince Kurt that we need to start a “Presidents of the United States of America” cover band. It’s been my idea since about a year ago when Kurt and I went to Club Congress to see “The Great American Cover Up”, where local bands pick one group to cover and play their stuff for a half an hour. Every time I mention it to him, he says “Yeah man, that sounds awesome” and then he gives me the metal sign. All right, he didn’t give me the metal sign but I know he really doesn’t want to play with me. How can I get him to change his mind? Should I replace all of his Dream Theatre CDs with Presidents CDs? Should I hide his equipment throughout the house and notify him I’m not going to tell him the locations of his stuff until he submits? Should I start singing the Presidents during our morning shower?…scratch that last part

You know, I know like 3 people out here who would totally be into a Presidents cover band. I might be able to arrange exporting them to you. Or maybe you should post an ad on craigslist.

I have a mission for you. This guy I dated for like a second my freshman year got really fat and is in a band called Lagoon. They play Plush on Sept. 2. Or pick out a date from their website www.lagoononline.com You have to go see them and then tell me how much they fucking suck. I think I dated the second fattest guy in the band, he plays guitar.

I have seen Lagoon and they do fucking suck. There like a mixture of Tool and...shit. I don't remember any of the band members, but I do know I won't be seing them again.

Are you sure you've seen them? The downloads they have online don't sound like Tool, but they do sound like shit.

Maybe Tool was a bad example. I saw them at the Rialto for some local show. It was bad
