NOTE: All this week we will be running our Popped! Fest Band Libs.
Northern Liberties
1. We are called Northern Liberties because we are a noospheric oratory rite, transmitting holographic emblems, resonating neural linguistic imprinting, brazenly eulogizing radiant terrestrial imagined entities, stridently.
2. No, that is not a stupid name for a band and it is unenlightened of you to say that.
3. We are a band because we received the command, and it is a way for us to partially reveal our plan.
4. If we were not a band, we would be a pigeon, a beehive, or a flock of pterodactyls.
5. People say we sound like whatever they hear.
6. But really we sound like whatever we hear.
7. A year ago we saw our shadow, and now we’re casting it.
8. If the cops searched our van, they would find only part of the puzzle. Then their eyes would melt and their brains would turn to ash.
9. One band that we’re excited to see perform is Birds Of Maya because there is nothing more simultaneously ferocious and psychedelic than a Bird Of Maya. They are like a golden phoenix egg atop an ancient pyramid, awaiting the ultimate riff, which shall resurrect and ignite the sleeping flames of gaseous feathers…
10. The first thing we’re gonna do once we become bigger than Jesus is promote EVP technology as a more important mode of communication than the internet, and help fund research into solving the riddles of trans-dimensional and time travel.
Notekillers
1. We are called Notekillers because we used to be called Notelovers till we were badly hurt by by some fucked up asshole melodies who used us and then dumped us and, um, we don’t really wanna talk about it…
2. No, that is not a stupid name for a band and it is fairly thoughtless.
3. We are a band because it’s a good excuse to get away from our families a couple nights a week.
4. If we were not a band, we would be supporting our families.
5. People say we sound like The Three Stooges in Orbit.
6. But really we sound like The Three Stooges Meet Hercules
7. A year ago we were just getting back from SXSW and now we’re reading about SXSW.
8. If the cops searched our van, they would find our short-fused drummer ready to pounce.
9. The first thing we’re gonna do once we become bigger than Jesus is set our sights on becoming bigger than Mohammed, Buddha and the rest of those guys people think are such hot shit.
The Low Budgets
1. We are called The low budgets because thats what our t shirts say.
2. No, that is not a stupid name for a band and it is proactive of you to say that.
3. We are a band because of drink tickets.
4. If we were not a band, we would be alcoholics without the mystic.
5. People say we sound like your favorite band.
6. But really we sound like your girlfriend’s favorite band.
7. A year ago we were poor and now we’re still poor and our cymbals got stolen.
8. If the cops searched our van, they would find true love.
9. One band that we’re excited to see perform is the lowbudgets because I’m going to be smoking weed and drinking in the van during the other bands.
10. Philly is better than dutchmaster because of the way it rolls.
11. The first thing we’re gonna do once we become bigger than Jesus is push him around and call him short.
