Artist description Three guys -- one real, two imaginary -- get together in a basement every week to try to start a rock band. One is invariably drunk, one insists on listening to Cheap Trick Live at Budokan for hours on end, and the other escapes out a bathroom window before a note is even played. A fourth member sits at home and records the songs he feels the band should include in their setlist. All melodies are based on foggy snippets of songs heard on an AM radio circa 1978.
