KD related story

[MacabreMelodies]

So my crappy pop-punk band is soundchecking at a local night club in Saugus, MA and I am wearing my recently purchased KD "diseased frog" shirt. After we finish, one of the guys doing sound approaches me and says something like "I haven't seen that shirt in years!"
I shit my pants a little and ask him if he listens to them...
the guy went on to tell me he used to tour with Kayo Dot and maudlin of the Well (playing drums I think.) We talked music for like ten minutes and he said he liked my band. (A little shameless advertising: www.myspace.com/thescouflaws)

Anyway, he went on to give me a demo from his band, Protean Collective.

I wanted to share this because it made my day. Small world!

edit: His name is Matt

I don't remember a Matt playing drums for them? I thought it went straight from Sam (who played drums for all of MOTW and part of KD) into Tom.

also that shirt is like brand new.

One time I was wearing a hoodie for a band that isn't Kayo Dot and this girl came up to me say "HEY I LOVE [that band that isn't Kayo Dot]!" and I said "Orly?" And she nodded and told me about how she used to work with the drummer from that band blah blah blah blah.

But her story didn't make any sense because it was literally impossible for drummer-guy to be in that band and to have worked some cheezball job with this girl.

And now she's a pornstar.

So, like, I'm pretty sure she just wanted to have sex with me.
Probably the same thing is true for this guy.
He wanted to have sex with you.

re-reading the original post, maybe he was saying that he was in a band that opened for KDMOTW a few times?

I'm drawing a blank on his shirt claim, though.

[Astral Poetry]

the drummer on my fruit psychobells was different if my memory serves me correct

 

[xfer]

yeah it was this dude Andrew, known as "D"

 

[FuSoYa]

Hah, that guy was totally lying. We never played with a Matt, and that shirt is brand new.

 

[xfer]

that dude was hitting on you

 

[0sm0se]

No, I wasn't.

I mean, shut up.

 

[MacabreMelodies]

I guess I shouldn't have slept with 0sm0se then.

It's possible he was saying his band opened for you or something.

This is his current project:http://www.myspace.com/proteancollective

 

[FuSoYa]

hmmmm.... nope. Lying!

 

[MacabreMelodies]

I think this makes the story even better!
Albeit I should stop being so naive.

 

[metaghost]

If you ever see him again, before engaging in sexual activities, make sure to point out that you know he was lying.

And then when he tries to form a rebuttal, make sure to point out that you know he was lying because the greatest wizard in all of Final Fantasy told you so.

He'll probably think you're lying.

But you won't be.

I was a fake member of Kayo Dot once. Mind you, it wasn't my doing. Someone decided I was Greg Massi and proceeded to shout at me how awesomely skilled "I" was.
