Saxophones?
You gotta fucking be kidding me
You motherfuckers are sucking all over this joint
Assholes
You're playing like fucking children up there

Saxophones?
You gotta fucking be kidding me
You're breaking my heart up there
Assholes
Everybody can hear your fucking clams out there
You don't need a mic for that

Stand out here all fucking night
Trying to blow your fucking brains out
When it comes time to play
What do you play - clams?
One clam and this whole fucking band is through tonight
Try me

You wanna fuck with me on the bandstand?
Nights off, nothing to do
You come in and play this kind of shit for me?
You got nowhere to fucking go the next set
Because if I hear one fucking clam from anybody
You've had it
Fuck all of you

Saxophones?
You gotta fucking be kidding me
You're breaking my heart up there
I'm up there working my balls off trying to do somebody a favor
And you motherfuckers are sucking all over this joint
Assholes
Fuck all of you
Everybody can hear your fucking clams out there
You don't need a mic for that

You're all over the fucking place
Miscue after miscue

Assholes
Fuck all of you
How dare you play like that for me
We don't play two fucking bars
In one fucking tempo
Not one
You try one fuckup the next set
When you get back to New York
You'll need another fucking job
Count on it

Now that we're getting pretty far into Season 5, we thought we should remind you can check out high-res versions of the cover art on our Flickr page HERE. And for the record, when you download The Singles - Season 5 as a "whole album," you get .jpeg files of all these images too. Pretty cool, eh?

Now go look at some art. Your eyeballs will thank you.

Sunday, June 23

7:00pm

Capitol Theater, Madison WI

$15 general admission / $10 students and teachers

Tickets are available now at the Overture Center box office or online HERE.

 

We're only playing one song (it is an awards show, after all), but the MAMA organization's purpose is to help support music programs in local schools. So If you're in the area, come on down - it's all for a really good cause.

For those of you new to Kicksville, here's how this whole "Season" thing works:

Think of it like a TV series. You can watch the episodes each week for free, and at the end of the season, you can buy a DVD with all the shows plus some bonus shite.

 

With our "Season" releases, you can download a new song each week for free (yes - free!), and at the end of the season, you can buy a DVD/CD with all the music plus videos, liner notes, each single's artwork, and so on.

Pretty simple, right? Right. So, catch up on any Seasons you've missed (the links are over there on the left), and stay tuned for more....
