Donald and Wade dropped by the studio and played some awesomely shitty songs from their iPods for our latest installment of Street Carnage Radio. Did you know they both used to be models for Ryan McGinley? Donald is the guy on the cover or Ryan’s first self-published zine and Wade was one of the first guys to go on one of those infamous McGinley road trips (Wade’s the guy in the wave).
So why are these guys not drowning in poon? One theory is it’s the nature of the beast these days. Bands can no longer just crash at the nearest hotel and bring everyone back for a party. They need to park way outside of town so nobody will steal their gear. Or they have to leave town entirely before 4AM. This makes it impossible to get near first base let alone have two wasted teenagers snowball your cum.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
AND MY FIRST FRIEND WAS A HOMO BUT THIS IS GAY.
I guess you need Roast eps like this one and the white williams to throw into rasoir sharp relief how good the other ones are thru and thru
AyE YI YI!!!!! funny listening but painful and I think Father Time outlawed playing klaxons songs from 2007 outside 2007 lest music get so embarrassed it wrinkled up as a concept and left us all more tone deaf than Kanye “Auto Tune” West

this was good as comedy but confirmed why only the lamest pity/auto friends (like estranged friends wives) have been recommending these guys on Facebook and the like. these guys are about as reassuring behind a guitar as the Peeping Tom guy, Guitar Edition

“snowball your cum” is redundant.
11.19.08 at 2:12 am
“snowball your cum” is not redundant. the semantic meaning and the poetric-rhetorical meaning of the term snowball do not directly overlap so therefore the word “cum” is necessary to place “snowball” in the correct context.
