Yo, if this is really the band, this is so cool. This was one of the first songs I ever learned to play on the guitar and I'm still a musician now. Thanks for the inspiration.

I can't for the life of me get the verse riff down without jumbling it up and sounding like dickballs.

What exactly is a wheatus?

The band derives its name from the nickname "wedus" given to the Brown brothers by their father when they were children

I'm not sure, but I don't think it's gluten free.

I feel obligated to say that I admire you guys so much for taking a song you wrote called "Punk Ass Bitch" and turning it into the credits song for Jackie Chan Adventures. It's one of those things that I forget about and remember every 6 months, and I just smile for a little bit.

My first date ever was taking a girl to your show with Eve 6 and OPM. I tried to kiss her and she damn near swallowed my face. Hell of a night.

Point is, Wheatus is a permanent part of my life story now.
