Not that I even knew they were still together. Looks like Darius has decided he's a country singer. Yee ha...kick me in the ass and call me spanky

That fist album was pretty good for a couple of months, and then became more annoying than fire ant bites on your ass. What was that, the summer of 1996? Man. The whole summer was one big boat party, and that - and for some reason Steve Miller - was the only thing anyone ever played. Good riddance.

You realize that nobody in the Northeast has any idea what you're talking about with these fire ants??? After dealing with those fuckers in NC for 13 months, I'm glad to be back in the frozen northeast. I'll take snow any day over those annoying, massive piles of fire ants EVERYWHERE
My free vacation advice to anyone taking a trip to the south...Stay the fuck away from the piles of dirt...They're ALIVE. If you don't believe me, kick the pile, and then run like hell

I had one of those little fuckers gnawing on my scrotum once when I was a youngster while visiting my grandparents in Florida.
Don't ever sit on the ground in that state...find a chair!
After feeling some discomfort, I ran inside to whip my pants down in a bathroom and then grabbed that cocksucker and yanked him off...only to realize that I pulled off just his two lower segments, while his head and pincers were still attached to the teabag! Ouch!

Have I mentioned how heartbreaking this is?
Next thing you'll tell me is that Flock of Seagulls has broken up...and I don't know if I can handle that.

I hope Darius learns to take all of the marbles out of his mouth when he signs. I can never understand what he is supposed to be singing about.

I actually quite like these guys. All of those 90s alternative bands are great to me - Vertical Horizon, Hootie, Gin Blossoms etc etc. That's a shame. Their last album was really good.

"Cracked Rear View" was a good, if overplayed, album.

LOL! I agree. Hootie can go blow a fucking fish as far as I am concerned. Who gives a fuck.

Drowning yourself in MR babes will not bring Hootie back. Let it go quietly man.
It'll be alright. Promise.

Darius is perfect for country...since his range is about two notes. I think he sings lower than Mark Knopfler.

Still remember "Are You Hootie?" from "Jerry Maquire".
CRV was alright but I never bought the thing 'cause
every song was ALWAYS on the radio!
I liked "Musical Chairs" better so that's the only Hootie cd I have.
