Hi guys,

I work for NASA at the White Sands Test Facility in New Mexico as the lead recruitment officer for all of our testing programs. We're reaching out to dormant, obscure rock bands in an effort to gain a better understanding into the effects of zero gravity on mild to moderate hearing loss caused by rock music, as well as the effect of zero gravity on receding hairlines. It was suggested to me by a mutual friend that The Setbacks would be excellent candidates for both of these studies.

Now, before we launch you into space you'll have to complete some pretty rigorous training. It's no Sunday cakewalk in the park, boys. Some of you might feel sick and even throw up. But after you complete your 3 week training stint you'll be invited to participate in the next space mission to make repairs to a highly-advanced type of coffee maker on the International Space Station.

I realize you're all Canadian citizens but I'd like to expedite your entry into the U.S. on temporary work visas that will grant you special permission to undergo the training and the subsequent mission into space.

Yours truly,
Buzz
