Als Brown Shoes

About Me

A force to be reckoned with, Al's Brown Shoes greased up the Gladstone Michigan music scene in the late 70's, only to break up shortly after their first hit, a power pop cover of Elton John's Tiny Dancer. The song received minimal airplay, but it was enough to spark controversy and make then mastermind A-Kohrn too big for his britches, and C-Kohrn later died in a car crash that some say was murder.
Then as fate would have it, A-Kohrn met up with a fellow named E-Kohrn, the Mac Toaster Teflon, it was as if he was meant to be in the band. They are currently working on writing their first demo, but little work has been produced. Executives at the fledgling record company, Dangling Fury Enterprises, are waiting for a single.
Rumor has it that the first single, Spambot, was leaked to an alternative radio station and it was played once, but the switchboard was so overloaded with requests to hear it again that the radio station's phonelines were overloaded and created a static electricity phenomenon that erased the disc the single was on. It was the only copy, aside for the demo on a unknown fan's Ipod.
