My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 5/9/2005
Band Members: Jimmy P sings and screams a bit, jumps around a lot and plays a mean drop-tuned les paul guitar through a wall of Marshall's and Baez's... T.Bo sings and plays bass, looks cool as and drinks serious quantities of rider... Mr. Al hits the drums, REAL hard - bone crushingly hard to you - he's also the token sexy one and has the voice of an angel!!!
Influences: Everything we've seen and done
Sounds Like: The universe in three and a half minutes! Like a Used melody, but with a Bowie timelessness, channeled by Motley Crue's rythym section with a dash of Reznor darkness. Add a hefty dose of Lennon melody, blend with a McCartney meets Jay-Z slickness, then a pinch of Pantera metal mixed with a Lydon snottiness. A shot of Bono uplift and concience wrestles with a Kylie childishness, refereed by Ozzy before he was even contemplating sobriety in a deathmatch, which is called in the commentary box by John Madden, Benji and Joel Madden and Iron Maiden... A musical smack to your face from Dave Grohl is blocked by Ray Davies and the two sort out their differences over a pint of Cure served to them by a barmaid called Buckcherry who once knew a girl called Lola - much animated conversation follows with the names Kurt Cobain, Steven Hawking, Ramtha, Ramones, Mixmaster Mike, Malcolm Young, Phil Spector, Nelson Mandela, Gough Whitlam, Travis Barker, Pat Davern's white Les Paul, Lucious Borich, Tony Robbins, Jack White and Jesus Christ all name-dropped in an oft' heated but still respectful and loving exchange. Just as the original Guns n' Roses break into a fight at the pool table with the weight of their own percieved greatness, our hero's decide it must surely be time to leave... TAYLORMADE must be kept safe like a child, you see. The posse pays with a Lady Sovereign that Lola grabs out of her tips jar - remarking something about Ray being not a physical guy then, or now... Something With Numbers is exchanged and out onto the street and into a decidedly Green Day. Lou Reed said this was a perfect day, Taylormade want to spend it with you. A sound as bright as the brightest star and in a quantum second - as dark as the darkest anti-matter could hope to be. It's one part Butch... A Marvelous 3 parts Walker... A sound to pull you sideways faster than a Hunter S. Thompson driven trip across the desert of hope toward the great unknown. You'll know it when you get there because Hendrix will be re-working our songs with the help of John Bonham's band, led by the tandem of Louis Armstrong and Billie-Joe Armstrong and Johnny Cash on the run from the strong-arm of the law - which try as it might, it hasn't won though it fought and fought like that dickhead Geroge W. Bush and his bum-boy John Howard, even when all hope of victory is lost. The TAYLORMADE sound loves you both like a young Audrey Hepburn and younger Traci Lords - at the same time as an old Avril Lavigne tries desperately to reclaim a long forgotten level of celebrity by look, look, look, lickin' out your backdoor! It is a sound that you loved before you even met... Hated after the seven year itch for a while, but after you had a wild rebellious couple of years - you returned to and life would from that instant (if you so choose in another quantum moment) perfect for ever more. Love like this is as big as the universe - TAYLORMADE want you to apply this love to the universe...YOUR UNIVERSE!!!Live larger than ever and enjoy this perfect day!
