H-Beam : Complimentability : Live at Tidballs



Us be performing the mash-up hit single "Complimentability" off of that nonsensical Useful Box Of Hair. Had a great time with Jerry Pentacost on the drums, what a hitter. Fills up Tidballs like it needs to be. Totally bad ass with a great solo somewhere in the middle. Russel Wright is the duck. Water rolls off his back and stuff. Tastes delicious. He's playing that long four-string-falic-symbol that gets 'em going. Andrew Fantastic, ba-bada-ba-ba-ba-flam!!! He blows. He knows he blows. I'm partial but I think he's the best blower in town. He blows hard at times, especially his solo. What a blower. If you need blowing tips any of you Belmont up-and-comers, go see Mr. Hagen. Rick "T-Bone" Orcutt pays me so much money to call him that I should quit my day job, but the feeling I get while strumming next to him, is comfortable. He knows where and when to play. Thanks T-Bone (Cha-Ching!$!)

Big B, you motor-boatin-jake-brakin crazy man... thanks for signing up for the volunteer army.

See you soon

What Have We Done...



Everyone is all a bustle in the H-Beam world, and it's all over that silly Panda. Our first splash into the music video realm will be christened by our cuddly, somewhat gimmicky but always unpredictable stage show character, "Love Panda," and it's silly theme song that is already a fan favorite. Our decision to feature ol' LP was hardened when our hero Conan O'brien had to change his long running character "The Masturbating Bear" (whom we believed was a distant cousin of the Love Panda) into the forcibly adapted "Self-Pleasuring Panda" (whom we are SURE is a relative to our slap-happy Panda).We hope this is a big enough attention getter to convey the message, we think we could do great things together.

The filming process was great. We went through a shit load of tissues. Lots of different locations all over the greater Nashville area. Mellow Mushroom, Goldrush, Exit/In, Musica Statue, that back alley. The Panda behaved the whole time far as I'm concerned. Who or what the Hell is that dog-thing? I'm not sure if our next music video will have quite the absurdity, but who knows with us, right? Thank you Stayc, Tom, Kelly, Toph, and fellow co-workers. Also, thank you to all of you creative influences. I'll spare the names to keep your reputation clean.

We hope this video touches you as much as the Love Panda touches itself.
