Hot for Setbacks

Hi Guys,

I caught you guys at Zaphod's a while back. To be honest with you, I didn't
even know that a band was playing, as we were celebrating my friend Jo's
birthday. I was pleasantly surprised, had a good time, and have been religiously checking out your advice column since seeing you. I have to say
that this is an absoloutely hilarious feature on your site. My friends and I
have had a good laugh or two reading your collective advice on everything,
especially on love life....(if anyone ever really took your love advice to
heart, I can't imagine the catastrophe that it would create..hahaha...).

I think that Paul and Chris, your bass player and drummer (I think) are
really hot. Are they single? I talked to one of them at the show very
briefly, but they were taking down instruments, so I didn't talk for very
long. My friend Jo wants Paul, but she was sure that he was talking to a
girl all night, as was Chris.

What is the best way to meet members of the band, other than your shows?

You guys rock!


Trevor
I'm going to have to assume that this was submitted by Mrs. Saracino, as only a mother could love that mug. Plus I know she has a crush on Paul.

p.s. I know I'm treading on thin ice making mother jokes about an italian family. I'm going to wake up with a horse head in my bed tomorrow.


Steve
I don't mind playing the chopped liver role in this situation...being the only single member of the group who wasn't referred to by name. It's not like I need some anonymous girl to validate the fact that I am a good looking man...besides, what the hell is wrong with my love life advice anyways? Jerkass.

Even though it doesn't sound like you care much about where I hang out, I'll tell you anyways...because chances are I'm with Chris or Paul. Your best bet is to try Tropix Dance Bar on Rochester Street...that's where you'll probably find us on any given night. Why don't you girls come to our show on Saturday instead?

Chris, can you lay off the penis remarks? ...my mom reads these!


Paul
Well first of all, it is good to know that we are getting new fans.

Since our new found rise to fame we have become much more busy. Between attending photo shoots, movie premiers, award shows, and having major labels wine and dine us our relax time has become smaller. However, we do take time out of the rock lifestyle to check out shows or have a pint at the local venues like Zaphods, Babylon, The Bulldog, or The Royal Oak (did I say the Bulldog?.......what the hell am I thinking? Scratch that one).

Either way, all of us are single (except Trevor) so don't be worried about any cat fights or dirty looks if you come up to us. As a fan, you have the upper hand, since you know all about us but we know nothing about you. Hope to see you at one of the shows.


Chris
Hello Laura/Stacy,

I'm flattered by your comments, as I'm sure that Paul is.
My cohort Steve Palmer, who is convinced that I started an e-mail account in order to floss my good looks is jealous that you don't find him attractive as well. Well, you have good reason not to. Steve's penis is a mere 2 cm.
If you come to our show on Saturday I will be glad to buy you a multitude of drinks, after which I will show you the town in a little something called a limousine. You have the option after the evening to spend the night at my bachelor pad, as long as you don't mind keeping your manic sex shrills at a minimum, as my parents wake easily.

Thank You In Advance...

Chris

P.S. Paul and I will be duking it out in The Bachelor: Rock Life on FOX in the coming fall.

P.P.S. Steve has a 2cm penis.
