I don’t need a prize. Being friends with The Skullcranes is rewarding enough…Ahem.

Um…none of the lists are actually in an ESSAY form. And you’re supposed to submit the essay, WIN, and THEN get your two cents posted. Of course since you can’t even read simple directions the likelihood of you actually winning is quite slim. Tru dat. However this does work nicely into my argument for hating the skullcranes based on their 83% stupid fan base.

5 reason I fuckin’ hate the Skullcranes

1. I’m so sick of them saying they suck or they sucked on last song or that the drummer thinks he missed that absolutely fucking crucial fill on that song that no one would know about unless they had hyperbolic hearing and a PHD in music theory. Fucking admit it. You ROCK! Oh yeah if I hear one more thing about how the last recording sucked……
2. They stole my guitarist, my bassist, and my FUCKING drummer! Jerks.
3. I hate how apologetic they are about the weather sucking at their shows. What fuckin’ state do you live in anyway? Suck it up and put on an extra pair of socks!
4. I hate the fact that I never get drunk enough at a Skullcrane show to be in the “I need Help Walking” video.
5. And I absolutely fuckin’ hate that fact that I can’t be that guy singing all the lyrics as loudly as he can in your fuckin’ ear at the show anymore.

Five things I hate about the skullcranes.

While the AWESOMENESS of the Skullcranes is truly undeniable, there’s plenty of gripes (i’ll bet five are possible).

Sure they rock hard, have cool mustaches and are so very close to being mega rockstars (and once they become mega rockstars, i’m penning a 10 things i hate about the skullcranes, but mostly because i’ll be bitter about the long lines for beer at the shows and the fact i won’t be able to get backstage for the cool rock star parties)…

where was I? and so that is why i should be president!

I mean, these are the five things I hate about the skullcranes.

1 - A skullcranes show guarantees inclimate weather (i wouldn’t be surprised if that’s #1 on everyone’s list).

What is up with that? Some ancient voodoo curse? If the skullcranes have a show it’s guaranteed there will be a tornado, or a blizzard or negative 30 degree temps or some gila monster will be waiting outside my door just waiting to chomp my leg off.

2 - No songs about Gila monsters.

Any rockband worth their weight in gear would right a tribute to one of natures largest, and most loved, reptiles. They can write a song about ugly pants from the 80s but not everyone’s favorite ginormus lizard? That’s so lame.

3 - No uniforms

remember when bands would wear matching outfits? That was so awesome. How come they don’t try to bring that back. it would really go with that whole goth-techno-folk vibe they have going.

4 - they never do a show that’s walking distance from my house!

sure i don’t live near any music venues but where’s the impromptu street jam? there’s plenty of rooftops. look what rooftop gigs did for U2 and the beatles! the fab four were barely on the charts until they played hey jude on the roof of apple studios!

5 - You are distracting me in class.

It’s bad enough I barely concentrate on the lecture with “Bein’ Cool (Math You Can’t Do)” running through my head. I login into my email and there’s an essay contest? How can I concentrate now?!?!?!?

in conclusion, i always hated writing essays, particularly about rockbands, because it’s so hard to figure out how to end the damn things. I like pie. All kinds.
