Your Band could Open for Hanson?
So today I open my email to find a message that says. "Your band could open for Hanson". As you know My alter ego Bouybee Uybee is often a mistaken misunderstood genius in the realm of Impromptu to Talentless Noise Rock. (This genre I have just invented to describe Mr. Uybee.
(For those not familiar with Mr. Uybee referre to his album, and the reviews posted about this album).
So is it time Bouybee took to the road, is Hanson the ticket? Ha, there are many places that this great genre of Impromptu to Talentless Noise Rock could go buy Hanson isn't one of them.
It is amazing that a group who went from nobody to stellar with a simple hit like MMM Bopp, continues to have a foot in the world of music. Yet does not their lack of support tell of something for their musical prowess? Well no, but still... In the long list of Vanilla Ice and Right Said Freds... Hanson is going to have a hard time creating a buzz for those wishing to open for them.
In fact, I'm thinking that no one wants to open for them, so they have turned it into a "winning opportunity".
All you misconstrued singers out there... maybe this is the moment you have been waiting for. Prepare to jump on stage... and belt out those hits, forget MMM Bopp... here comes you.

Finally all those years of practicing Show Tunes in the shower may actually pay off! Thank goodness for Hanson and their priceless music opportunities...
Wow, you ever listen to a group and wonder if they've really played their own album? Why are they still trying? GIVE IT UP!!! That's another new genre I think you should include: the "Still Going but Got to Give It Up" genre

On At Ease Web I read that Hanson has been covering Optimistic on a regular basis recently. Yeah like a part of me really wants to hear it.

Wait, wait. So if you're not mind-numbingly famous, you should stop doing what you love to do? Just because Hanson isn't the pop sensation they once were in the mid-90's, they should just quit making music? In that case, all indie bands should stop making music, because they aren't loved by millions, and all aspiring musicians should quit and get "real jobs".
Unless you mean they should give up because they suck. In which case, I totally support that.
Also, that JuiceMouseZero band should open for them. Has anyone heard JuiceMouseZero? Phenomenal. Phenomenal band.

the point was the later Javann... I hardly would say Right Said Fred is well.. the pinical of musical genious... And hanson an indie band? It would be the reverse... Stardom should come late in the career. If you shine early you'll burn out quick... and then always live in the shadow of your past.
And yes this is all in refrence to who wants to listen to or be a part of hanson?

Should you take what you can get to get out into the light even if it is hanson. Hate to say but i rather pop in a hanson CD rather the other truth be told.

I read that a school in PA is doing a "Stop the Bop" campaign for Katrina relief. They are playing MMMBop before, after, and between classes over the P.A. system. Then they are charging the students $5 to make the "racket stop". It said that their goal is $3000 and by Wednesday they had $2300. It said that some kids were giving $20 instead of $5. What a way to get money....

That's not just wrong, its actually sounding quite illegal.
