Hi, did we form a band the other night? I can't quite remember, but I seem to recall a discussion on the topic, quite possible with tom n' chris. It's like waking up in a Junior Campers uniform, or a puddle of piss. I woke up with a guitar strapped to me and my fingers fretting an F#. Help me out here, what happened?

Oh right, that sounds about right. Yeah, now I remember. You said you'd play trumpet didn't you? Welcome back, commander!

Yeah, I'm fairly sure I did wake up in a p... singing position, or something. I think Nat's playing bass ;D Somebody ought to tell her that.

That's alrite. Some of the best bassists that ever were couldn't actually play.
So, Chris, vocals. Tom, cornet. I'm not entirely sure what a cornet is, but it sounds sexy. Nat on bass and I'll do guitar. We need a drummer. And a name.
Concerning the name, I have two suggestions:
FEARLESS FRIPP! or Dr. DEALGOOD'S CONTROVERSIAL IDEOLOGY!
...thoughts?

I've been singing in the shower, it sounds good... Nattus says she wants to be frontwoman... Julia has extended her arms in your theoretical direction, too!

i think our opening song live should be an epic (at least 30 minutes) song of love, death, happiness and pain. it will be played by 40+ people on kazoos, and one on steel guitar.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have our first fan. I like the orchestra of Love-Kazoos idea, though. Julia, at what point did you start practicing for the drummer thing and stop randomly hitting me?

Maybe you could be the elusive member. You know the type...King Crimson had Peter Sinfield, Hope of the States have Type2Error, Elbow have the Soup Collective, The Manics had Richie, Radiohead Nigel Godrich...you could do things like visuals, create atmospheres and such, plentiful.
