KEAU D — band guru
DESHA D — musical director with a brassy french horn
GAIL B — bass clarinet and our secret comics provider
JETGIRL — Tambi’s bodyguard... obviously the most overpaid person on the crew
TASTY-PRAWN — clarinet, but not the bass clarinet, we’ve already got one of those
REG & FROST — kick-ass bodyguards in suits and cheap sunglasses
JOE H — naked guy who streaks at every concert and gets the crap beat out of him by our kick-ass bodyguards
DENISE W —the band’s tough-looking but arachnophobic cook specializing in really good grilled cheese sandwiches
KITTY — wicked keyboard and ocarina. Kitty is flexible. *ahem*
IAVI — Katchoo’s guitar roadie who keeps her gear in shape and hands her guitars one after another as she smashes them on the encores (sometimes a very dangerous job!)
MARTATES — our Dath Vader dressed sax player who also does our taxes and the grocery shopping for the buses
MIBBITMAKER — the one person who heard one of our songs played on Little Steven’s Underground Garage
THE LINSTER — the lucky person assigned the job of Buss Girl. Her sole job is to kiss Francine and Katchoo for good luck just before they go on stage. The Linster is easy to spot at the shows, she’s the one with the biggest smile.
PUCKSTER — Keyboard player who likes to help chef Denise W in the kitchen
LEE-ERIN — her job is to keep Casey from bugging Tambi when Tambi has to work, because you know how Casey gets. Sometimes this job involves swordplay.
DAVID P — the over-zealous accordian player. David has been know to get jiggy with it.
HOO — the token drunk chick in the front row who jumps about, arms flailing like a one-person mosh pit. Hoo is actually on staff and paid to do this because Katchoo thinks it’s funny.
Available Jobs:
—Somebody has to do laundry because Freddie changes underwear several times a day (we don’t know why)
— We need a couple of people to pretend to be locals who hang around the hotel lobby trying to get a glimpse of the band coming out of the elevator. You know, make it look like we’re popular
— We are in desperate need of neglected band wives who show up unannounced in Detroit at 9 AM and catch their mates in bed with 6 comatose groupies (as a bonus, you get to make a scene in a Four Seasons hotel)
— We need a truck driver who thinks we’re all nuts
— We need a mother who supported us back when we were playing parking lots in New Jersey
— and we could use more roadies to blow up the 60’ inflatable Francine that floats over the crowd. Unfortunately this must be done by mouth as we lost the air compressor in a poker game with the back-up band.
BOOKS (but not those How To books)
ART (but not the current school of fine art)
