Flounder

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Flounder started in 1997 at a Jesus Lizard show. I (doug) walked up to Andy (guitar) and asked if he wanted to jam sometime. I knew Captain (Andy played bass) had split up and he wasn't playing. He said yeah, lets jam (he knew I had played bass in Amber Inn). Andy said, I think Brian Agnel is here and he plays drums, lets see if he'll jam too. So Flounder was born, our first show in 1997 was opening for MudHoney at The Press Club, and it went downhill from there (jk). Brian left in 2002 to raise his new son, and so we've added Sean, who kicks ass by the way. Now after 4 years of not playing, here we are on MySpace, does that mean we're cool now? We were on Garageband and thought we were cool, but this is obviously the new cool! Will we get all that we want? Will I finally get sponsered by a brand name maker of something useless? Will a famous movie star and hollywood whore be seen with a member of our band? Will our humble living spaces be on Cribbs? Will you're bowels be emptied by our brown notes? Do you realize we're gonna f-ing Rock!..........
