My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 5/6/2005

Band Members: Matt Beat- vocals, keyboards, guitars, trumpet, harmonica, burping noises
Steven Beat- cowbell, other percussion, drums, very loud burping noises
Bryan Poole- bass, background vocals, and only occasional burping noises

Influences: Living and dying. And Sufjan Stevens. That dude is a genius.

"Everyone Wants Your Money" THE MUSIC VIDEO

Matt wrote a theme song for an incredibly hilarious weekly show called The Watercooler News Show. The following is the aftermath, in music video form.

Here we are playing "Myspace.com" live to about 12 people, and 7 of those people are in the other bands we played with that night.
