Mulletude behind the scenes (continued)

People may realize how consumed the members of Mulletude are with rocking and knocking up chicks. People probably don't realize that we're also consumed with hatred for each other. Here are some greatest hits from emails back and forth.

Feel the love

Joe: I still want to do Steelheart.
Erik: like, all the members?


Jon: I am making a guitar center run after work. Let me know if you need stuff.
Erik: you to die on the way


Jon:For eveyone’s convenience, I have provided a list of bands that are forever banned from the Mulletude set list. There will be no:
Accept,Krokus,Y&T,Triumph,Stryper,Hanoi Rocks,Mr. Big,Damn Yankees,Firehouse ,Enuff z Nuff ,Nitro ,Helix ,Keel ,Bang Tango ,Jackyl ,Vain ,Kick Axe ,Giant ,Trixter ,Danger Danger ,Tyketto ,Lizzy Borden,Pretty Boy Floyd ,Hurricane ,Tuff,Black 'n' Blue (sorry Tommy Thayer - you are no Ace),Aldo Nova,House of Lords ,Babylon A.D. ,Tora Tora,T.N.T.,Sleeze Beez ,King Kobra ,Shotgun Messiah,Killer Dwarfs ,Saigon Kick,Nelson
Joe: Man, you typed that list up fast. Are those the bands on your compilation cd? Hoarding all these bands for your next band?
Jon: A simple google search of "sh*tty 80’s bands" gave me this comprehensive and accurate list. A simple google search of "sh*tty guitar players" bgave me a picture of Erik.


Erik: We'll have to stop after the solo on Fallen angel just like we do for bark at the moon so I can let that note ring out before I start the main riff again.
Pat:Go upstairs and practice for once and let it ring out while you play the riff.
Erik: yes, because having that note and the chords ring out at the same time is in fact in the realm of possibility....
Please do something dangerous on your way home today and die (you know, like driving UP to the speed limit.....scary stuff!)
Pat: I can’t go as fast as you because I didn’t get a spoiler on my grocery getter like you did
Erik: no, you cant go as fast as me because you in fact do not possess a pen1s
Pat: Speaking of spoilers, I have another for you. You will die alone.


Pat: What was going on in CT
Erik: my grandmother's 87th birthday so it was a mini family reunion
Pat: They'll reunite at your funeral this weekend.
Wait no they won't. no one likes you.


Joe: The song just plods along. It doesn't have the same energy as Lick It Up.
I still prefer Lick It Up, AliveIII version
Erik: i prefer Lick it Up, the Jon Sucks version (where the "it" was jon's own salty tears of depression and loss, spawned from his realization that he will always in fact suck).
Jon: How about Lick it Up the donkey kong remix. You know, the one where some d-bag named Sportymusic33 aimlessly mashes his guitar strings for 3 ½ painful minutes.


Erik: Heat of the moment
Pat: Heat of the moment?
Erik: you know, Asia....everyone would know it
Pat: Everyone would know Wake me up before you go go don’t leave me hanging on like a yo yo too and it would be less gay to boot.
Erik: you are forgetting the chicks....just because you have your first girlfriend ever now and can successfully cross that off of your sorry to-do list, doesnt mean we should stop pandering to them
Pat:Pandering to chicks = good. Pandering to guys who don’t like chicks = bad.
Erik: exactly, so we should stop listening to you. for good
Jon: I refuse to do Heat of the Moment. Problem solved. The song sucks a$$. We can pander to chicks with power ballads.
Erik: I love how Jon thinks he has the power to veto anything.......when we can replace a bass player with a pedal or 2......or with about 2 days worth of steamy craps i can save in a bucket
Jon: I don’t think a bucket of poop has the patience to sit there and watch you bang away on a fret board in the wrong key for 3 hours.
