Not BaNaL!

Did I mention Barenaked Ladies has a new album called Barenaked Ladies Are Men? They do! Hay and I bought it over the weekend. I've listened to it exactly one time, but not because it isn't any good. I just have been cramming my Veronica Mars episodes.

Also, in the very near future HAY AND I ARE GOING TO SEE THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS! I have seen the Johns in concert before but it's been 15 years. I have their autographs which my hot roommate got me back in college when they stayed at the hotel he worked at. The autographs sit quietly in the safe but I really should frame them and put them on the wall.


And, just so you're not wondering forever and a day, if you do not see your name on this list then your quiz did not successfully send to me: Avi, Bearette, ACW, Molly, DLil, Bdogg, Kristen (sarkasmo), SourPuss, Stef, MIL/Lisslo, Mel, Tug, KnittingSchmoo, and Liz.

Spéncèr, you know why you're not on this list.

Anyone else, even if I don't know you, you are so entirely welcome to take the quiz. I want you to. Please. I love grading things. Like a lot. So go do it! :)

When I post the answers I will also post which ones you all got correct. Let me just say that I am amused by the patterns of which items people think are false.

I noticed some of them were packed with detail so I assumed they were true. I wonder if I was right :)

I've never seen TMBG in concert, but every time you mention them, it makes me want to go pull out my old CDs of theirs and listen to them again.

Stefanie said...

Oh, I heart the Johns so much! The last time I saw them live was in a Borders book store, promoting their kids' CD & DVD. Not exactly the same as a club show, but it was still entertaining of course. Have fun!

Bearette - I will reveal my trues and falses on Saturday. :)

Avi - You should pull out your TMBG. The old stuff is awesome. I like some of the new stuff but there's too much kids music mixed in now so I'm hoping they do a ton of old stuff at the concert. I'm sure Hay and I will be the oldest people in the crowd, aside from Hay's co-workers who are awesomely random. And if you haven't already seen their documentary (GIGANTIC: A Tale of Two Johns) I will gladly send you a copy. It's how I met Sarah Vowell.

Stef - I totally intend to. Even if they do their kids stuff I LOVE to watch them perform. :)

Tug said...

Yeah, I totally guessed on them all. Mostly 'cause I don't ask questions to get to know you better when we're naked at Avi's place.

Poppy said...

Naked time is not question time. :)

Besides, you did just as well as some other people who have read my blog for a very long time. And have I let the cat out of the bag yet that no one is doing very well? :) No one is doing very well. :)

Avitable said...

I will do that. I have to figure out how many of their albums I have.

Tug said...

ooh, sucka. And only one entry, huh? I need to get one of my other personalities to do it...

Poppy said...

Yes, only one entry per person, sorry. :)
