Okay, this was brought up in another thread... Um, the one.... About........ Mike commenting on Obama, yeah.
Ok, basically.... If J, R, and M EACH!!! did a bio about the band.... How do you think they would be different from each other?
Um... Off the top of my head, I think R's would have a lot of ellipses, and would focus more so on the latter years, and on either John or the collective... In other words, I don't see R writing too much about himself.
I'll have to think about J and M.

I have to think about it. But I think John's would be rather introspective, he seems like that type. Robby's would be light and fun I think could be wrong. Mikes would be surprisingly deep since we all know he hardly ever talks and probably has a lot bottled up to say.

I could see J busting out with some stream-of-consciousness.... And, I totally agree about Mike... His would probably be, like, War and Peace-sized!

ahaha this is quite a topic.
Robby: Speak the truth. Say it how it happened. Very general in the problems that happened in the band, never pinpointing what exactly happened, but enough to infer what he really means. Revealing crazy, drunken stories.. maybe.
Johnny: The same as Robby, but more sentimental. Probably more specific than Robby.
Mike: Ahaa, I think he would tell it totally different from John and Rob. Why he stayed aloof in the band, but certainly still there; just quiet. Commenting on John and Rob's relationship. How he is very involved in the band, although he is distant.
But honestly, who really knows, ya know?
Its just fun to think about..
Oh, the stories that would come out of their mouths..... =D.

It's funny you say that about John and Robby's bio-styles BB because they're like the opposite as far as songwriting goes. I'm not saying that they wouldn't write like that because I agree with everything you've said.
/tangent.

Truth, HiG... AND MAYBE THAT'S WHY THEIR WRITING STYLES WOULD BE OPPOSITE?! IDK....

I think I agree about John being sentimental. However based on the humor in some of the questions he answers for IM, there is a slight possibility that he would not be all that deep, just throwing it out there....

What? Our dear Johnny not being deep? How could you insinuate such an idea? Does his melodies not please the ears and his profound tales of running away, truth and light do not engage your mind? BLASPHEMY!  |

I know I know but remember this is the same John that put his girlfriends Wonder bra in the freezer and answered his door in drag |

Wonder bra in the freezer? This sounds like a veeery interesting story. Hint. Hint. (I know about the drag story though)

Yes it was. They've done so many interviews it's hard to remember. I have to go back and watch some of the stuff again. I'm pretty sure it was from the GF era.

I would love for them to come up with biographies. I hope John would write more about his childhood and teenage years (at least when he gets more comfortable writing about it). And of course I'd love to hear more details about the first ten years of the band. |
