I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
Fancy Pants have been calling themselves a band since all members put aside their differences and endured a glorious musical orgy in the late March of 2007, prior to this Garth and Harvey had been cooped up in a bedroom, the outrage of being part of such a sub standard society bled from them in form of song.
Why did some retard midget get to run people down in Adelaides city streets? and why was it justified? cos he's a retard midget?
Why do big tough (and handsome) new Zealand men insist on wearing sarongs?
Does your friend have any right claiming you are the cause of his lung cancer because you shouted him cigarettes?
Why do fat chicks think theyre hot?
Why do christians want to change you?
is anything Derris say's 'Completely New'?
It was these questions and more that prompted the initial writing sessions for 'Tales from the mull-bowl'
15 days and 2 rehersals later Fancy Pants invaded the workspace of anal citizen Jason ' Jay, oh my god, look i play guitar in the brews' Illman and proposed he record them some form of distributable cd, as they were certain to become the worlds biggest selling all male act of all time.
Unfortunately the cd is yet to make the top 100 in any chart or win the boys an ARIA even though all copies of the cd have been sold. The bookings came slow, with 'The Pants' (as later dubbed by Heroin Skunk whilst unable to find a pair) playing Adelaide's least prestige venues, including their first show at the 'Southwark Hotel' witch features no stage and no punters. The band get sloshed and fuck around, and agrees this definitely is what life's about.
Amused by the fact Harvey used to play in 919 local promoter's 'Flying Saucer promotions' and 'two bucks entertainment' book them as the opening act for Jew punk gods 'Yidcore's' first Adelaide shows, the joke is they play in the afternoon when no one is watching. This day is made all the better when Harvey fractures his elbow during Yidcores set. He still hasn't gone to the doctor, he still has a fracture in his elbow.With stomachs aching from fits of laughter 'Flying Saucer' put Fancy Pants on another show which deems to be less shit, we open for a bunch of hardcore emo bands, drew breaks a string and we perform Meat Loafs 'Bat out of hell'.
A month later we secure a gig with Drews Metal band at the 'Lizard Lounge mocktail room' all though it's the first time we play to a full room, we leave without being paid and Drew's effects board covered in spew.
Supprisingly enough we are invited back to play the Lizards main stage a week later by Jason 'look how many international supports my band gets' Illman for 'The Restless Words' SA tour, we open to a empty room, again, but we couldnt be bothered having it any other way
With Jamie somewhere in Australia, Harvey posting on forums, Drew workin on his metal project and Skunk playing world of warcraft the band takes a back seat for a while, until we score another show at the lizard, a full on 12 band fest with 'The Brews' and Satans cheerleaders', we still cant find Jamie, so our friend Kyle sings lead, this time the sound guy Rob 'Pigsy' Puddy actually pays attention to us and asks us to play a custom bike and tattoo show, we accept the extravagant offer and a month and a half later we play our first outdoor show on the back of a A-Trailer with Kyle fronting.
Witch brings us to now, Garth still nowhere to be found, Harvey working on his solo project 'Dave Harvey and the Phat Chubi's' and with Drew on 'Skull' and 'PCC', Drew playing in Ridiculed belief and Skunk playin World of Warcraft, in our spare time we still continue with Fancy Pants a a three piece. Catch us at a show one time, we'll try not to suck to bad.
