One more little story I forgot from this weekend's studio session. As Tom was working with our engineer Rafi to digitally fix my many many bass mistakes, the rest of us were hanging out in the Q Division lounge, playing our 412th straight game of grab-ass, looking for something to pass the time. When Nate jumped on the computer, he accidentally stumbled upon someone's logged-in MySpace page. We had access to someone else's MySpace page. Well - this could kill some time.
Our first instinct was of course to change the person's sexual orientation. It's your basic go-to MySpace prank. People rarely check their own sexual orientation profile once they set it, so we figured it would likely remain on the person's profile for a good long time, causing them to get some confusing and possibly intriguing inquiries from the pervs on the internet.
Unfortunately for that plan, this was a band profile and (with the exception of Scamper) there aren't all that many bands out there who are openly homosexual. So that option was out.
After a few minutes of thought, Nate did what any person in his position would naturally do - replace the band's profile photo with this:

Underneath the photo, Nate wrote "Coach Lubbock was here. Gotchya!"
After we giggled like Santa's elves on crystal meth for a few minutes, we wondered how long it would take for this band to realize their MySpace photo had been changed to one of the staples of ABC's TGI Fridays. Of course in all our giddy girlish excitement, we forgot to write down the band's name, so we actually have no idea what happened with it. There's no climax like an anti-climax!
So if you are a band member who's MySpace page was suddenly overtaken by Bill Kirchenbauer: you're welcome.

At my school, they didn't log you out of anything, even if you closed your browser.
I opened up Myspace and sure enough was brought to someone else's page. I changed so many things on it, sent out bulletins, broke up with his girlfriend (i doubt she bought it), etc. It was hysterical. The kid came back in the lab, logged into his Myspace on a different computer and had no idea.
Had you remembered the band name, this would've been much more awesome. You MAY have had a chance with Jamie Luner or Brooke Theiss.
So YOU'RE the assholes who did that to is.
Vengeance will be ours! Count on it, fucko!

Now you done did it, you went and pissed off Asia. There is a wanky, Progressive supergroup ass-whooping in your futures, boyos.
Careful, Vin. There's enough ass-whipping to go around. You never know who might get hurt in the heat of the moment.
Yours in Christ,
Asia
