tastes like chicken, except when they taste like steak
Matt Love (bass, guitar, vocals), Leonardo Faria (keyboards, samples, vocals), Lulina (guitar, percussion, vocals), Du (guitar, percussion, horns), Bruno (drums), Six (bass), The Fazz (vocals) Ana Shio (vocals) met while working as waiters in a Brazilian Steakhouse in Washington DC. Leo, Lu, Du, Six, Bruno and the Fazz and Ana are Brazilian, Matt just pretends to be. Over time they discovered that they had a remarkable number of things in common - they were all members in bands where they were supporting talented and charismatic, but stubbornly independent leaders. Their creative lives were characterized by periods of frenetic creative activity, and stretches of inactivity.

Story behind the song
Michael Franti was dissin my culture, so I opened up a big can of Duff beer on his ass
Lyrics
G Robbie, Jim and me put a band together C D I remember how it made us proud G When we learned how to play some Neil Young tunes C D We were bad, but we were loud G We'd practice down in the basement C D Learning songs off the radio G While dad was grilling up bergers and franks C D Out back on the patio Chorus Em D Em D Life was good back then, better than we ever knew Em D C D We didn't have the year 2008 to compare it to G C D Back in the day (oooooooh oohhh) G C D Back in the day (oooooooh oohhh) G C D Back in the day (oooooooh oohhh) G C D Back in the day (oooooooh oohhh) Hanging out and drinking cold beer In the hazy summer heat Driving my camero Down Springwater Street Friday nights meant football games And cruising through downtown And parking up on Skyline Drive With my girlfriend Wanda Brown Chorus Around the corner at Memorial Park My brother played basketball Sis would hang out with her freinds At Valley North Shopping Mall Weekends were spent on the lake At the cabin and on the boat We'd water ski and swim all day Now it all seems so remote Chorus
