My new band...otherwise known as the new facebook meme.


Come play along!

WHAT'S YOUR ALBUM COVER?

1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random... Read More”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together.

29. Hated to do that, but felt I really had to. Kamperland is well known for its lyrical use of the term
"white penis." :P

33. My "spread the love days" are long gone, I'm afraid.
Well, I'm not afraid, really. I'm just middle aged, married and wouldn't want to expose my cat to the wanton, white-penis-seeking behavior of my distant youth. :rofl:
