Anyone want to start a Shaggs cover band with me? I'll play any of the instruments, we'd need bass/drums/guitar with two of those singing. Ability to play is a big issue (as you have to be able to sound like you can't play, which is really hard).

I think this would be a major accomplishment for music. I mean, The Shaggs were infamous. Frank Zappa said they were better than the Beatles. He's probably right. But to actually COVER the Shaggs would be a feat beyond coming up with something that sounded like The Shaggs. If we could pull off the same "notes" and "time signatures" on purpose as they did accidentaly- wow. It could be powerful.

So... are you in?
Now that you're jobless you might as well do a Shaggs cover band. I mean, it will probably make you rich and famous. Or you'll be laughed at. I'm not sure how this will turn out. - Tue, 1 Jan 2008 1:20pm
