Red Eye House Band; Also: Stories I Meant to Blog about but didn't.

Over the weekend, I realized something important. My new favorite show, Red Eye, did not have a house band like all those big, important late night talk shows do.

So I resolved to change this. I got on the phone with Dave In Texas (Lead Guitar), Sobek (Bass Guitar) and Slublog (Drums), who have all agreed to join me (Rhythm Guitar/Vocals/Raw, Lizard King like Sex Appeal) in correcting this problem. Retired Geezer has agreed to do our stage lighting and pyrotechnics.

After much internal discussion, we have decided on a name. Among the suggestions were "The Traveling Wilford Brimleys", "Fluffy McNutter and the Angry Unicorns" and "The Counting Crows". Sadly, the last name was still in use. Who knew?

Anyway, after watching the following Youtube clip (which Jim Treacher tells me is the number one downloaded clip from Red Eye Recap) it became obvious that there really was only one choice for our new band name.

That's right! Be on the lookout for the newly formed "The Bill Schulz Psycho-Sexual Gender-Indentity Confusion Bluegrass Experience" on future Red Eye episodes.

As Gutfeld likes to tell people, we'll be "coming soon". I don't know what he means by that, but the way he says it creeps me out everytime. Levy, can you help out here?

In other news I meant to blog about this weekend:

John McCain falls to 8% support in latest poll of Nevada Voters. Anyone know what the odds are currently running on his dropping out of the race before the end of September? I'd like to get in on some of that sweet, sweet, crazy, schadenfreud gambling money.

Elizabeth Edwards had come out (heh) in support of Same-Sex marriage.Which is appropriate since many would argue she is currently in one.

The Washington Times notes Trent Lott is a "buffoon" with a "foot in mouth problem". Given his penchant for goats, I would have called that a "hoof in mouth" problem, but I'm not going to argue semantics with the Times.

And, finally, Ron Paul continued to illustrate his manifest unfitness to be considered anything resembling a serious Presidential candidate. No, I don't have a link to back up this assertion. I just figure that since he hasn't dropped out of the race yet, it must continue to be true.

So be on the lookout for The Bill Schulz Psycho-Sexual Gender-Identity Confusion Bluegrass Experience on future Red Eye episodes. We'll be the ones completely jamming on the "Hoveround/Head On (Dance Remix)" playing into and out of every commercial break.
