I recorded this one in L.A. with Noah in his apartment. He had a fancy 8-track digital recorder. At one point, he said, “I’d like to get some cars and stuff on this recording.” And he proceeded to stick the mic out the window, and, ya know what?, it sounds fantastic on the record!

Mongo Man – Secret Bag of Goodies by The Corrupt Senators remixed on 2020.01.15

This is a quick remix after getting the old 8-track wav files back from Sonicraft. Thanks, Mom for saving the old reels – so much fun here!

This song would later be covered by Spank during Toby’s 9-month stint in the band.

…If Howard Roark Could Dance CD-Release Show at 400 Bar April 6, 2006

It was electric. The show, largely and unofficially sponsored by the Carlson School of Management Full-Time MBA students who promoted the show like hell and packed the room (led by Tony Johnson & future bandmate Ryan Arnholt), led to the one time in my life where I remember an encore being legitimately demanded. And it was the one time I was fully unprepared (and unwilling) to comply. We just weren’t ready with a 13th song. Oh well. Colleen lit up the stage before we left.

Teddy on drums, Bob on bass, it represented a teaming of talent that would never take the stage again together and was Bob’s last hurrah until he, Colin, & Toby teamed up for Eagles vs. Rockets a handful of years later and rehashed at least one of the songs from this set.

Firooz kicked things off in a way that only he can, delighting the crowd with positive creative word usements, before the band crescendoed into the first number, the usual Speakeasy Heroes opener, People on the Run.

Alas, Teddy was elusive, Bob was out on his own accord, and Toby was left to rebuild the mighty empire that was Cryns #3! But for one night, everything came together for a memorable night and memorable show.

Updated on Jan. 3, 2020.

Today, after laying down the piano bells, we moved on to vocals and were surprised to discover this little, “High School” joke buried in there. We had the 2nd part ready but weren’t sure if or how we’d use it, but once we started singing “HIGH…HIGH…” it all came together!

The intro “High School!” chant was inspired naturally from that ending part and made the joke even dumber and better.

A lot of our jokes in this musical are measured on a scale from dumb-to-smart. The dumber the better! In fact, when we’ve discovered smart jokes, we promptly remove them entirely or replace them with dumb ones.

The reason the “High School!” chant is so dumb is because nobody in the history of the world has ever chanted that. Why on Earth would you chant that?! And that’s what makes it an awesome thing to chant! Also, we realized that the phrase “high school” carries tons of baggage – both good and bad – for everyone! When you hear “high school” you think of something, but that thing is guaranteed to be different from the images conjured by the person sitting across the table from you.

No bass track (c’mon Ryan!)
The bells are real. Jon has curated this amazing collection of piano bells, all tuned and in great shape. A sight to behold!
This track contains the scratch guitar track. Jon says the actual guitar part will be BIG!
