Hanson’s got nothin’ on us

The Great 08 Battle of the Bands will feature Factsheet Five against David, Andy, Hubs and The Retropolitan’s bands. Who ARE Factsheet Five, you ask? Only the greatest collection of sugar-crazed, stinky musicians who have ever been to bed before 9, that’s who!*

This is our debut album, which Secret Agent Mama produced.

Love Factsheet Five. Adore us. Buy our plastic Fischer Price records. Throw your diapers and onesies at us. Wave your ~~lighters~~ cell phones in the air for our sweet, sweet melodies.

Wanna meet the band? Sure thing! I just so happen to have Backstage Passes.

On keyboards and flute, 1of3, the rage of the Tween-Age. Greatest influence? Jethro Tull.

On the electric guitar, 2of3, aka TXU (don’t ask). Greatest influence? Flock Of Seagulls.

On classic piano and dancer for the band, 3of3. Greatest influences? The Connells, Alkaline Trio and the Killers. God damn it, I love this kid.

Do you have a great band, too? Find out!

How to Play:

1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random – The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

2. Click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 – The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

3. Visit http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ – The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4.Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post the result. And then ask someone else to play.

*Guys? Um, er, that was me subtly tagging you.

You didn’t tag me so I’ll do this in a comment.

My Band: Arrondissements of the Marne
My Album: tedious as to work
The picture is of a blond bride with roses (?)

I love that.

Oh, I also love you,

seems as though our kids have the same taste: the killers, that is. and does 3 of 3 also rock to rage?

i’m teaching mine to say ‘rock out’ whilst giving devil’s horns.

Mindy – I have Fun & Games on MP3, if interested. You know, for “evaluation purposes” only.

I have Ring and the one after that on CD; not sure if I have ripped them yet.

Oh, and I saw the tag earlier – I’ve got my name and my album title and cover… but I need to get on my laptop to do the photo editing, and it’s currently doing some battery gauge reset that takes hours. Whee fun yay.
