I'm Greg, and i'm a 19 year old college student who writes high-larious songs in his (woefully small) free time. If songs about eating babies or D&D nerds tickle your fancy, than prepare to meet a fancy tickler! ...wait, that came out wrong!
Why this name?
I chose my band name only after a dozen days surrounded by Nazi stormtroopers in the jungles of Bangladesh....it's my name.
Do you play live?
Yeah, I play in the Kingdom all the time. I guess the most special moment was playing "I Have A Fetus" for the first time and seeing everyone's eyes light up. It was very uplifting.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet makes it easy for me to post random songs I write. But then again, the internet makes it easier for me to post random songs I write...
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If they paid me? Hell yes!
