What's with the "joke band" joke? Somebody explain it. It's bound to be hilarious.

Well i don't wanna toot my own horn but i'm fucking hilarious on stage, like i am the most boring guy offstage but the second i'm on stage i'm classic, it's weird. So people started thinking we are a joke band, and we're not, we take the stuff we write seriously. I put "NOT A FUCKING JOKE BAND" on the page to tell people that. Also i think people think i'm a shit guitarist, cause i put so much energy, i'm always moving but i'm trying to scream into a mic aswell, like if i wanted to i could play the shit perfectly...but how boring would that be. So the deal is do you want me to stand still and stay on stage left or fuck up a little bit while jumping off amps and throwing myself into shit?

I'm curious. Everyone keeps talking about how Yoko Oh No are "actually decent." Now, I haven't seen them, so could you tell me what you think makes them special?

Not special, just more interesting to watch then a fair few other bands. The raw energy they play with.

Yeah, I've got the feeling that their energy seems to be one of their highlights. I've gotta come to one of their shows soon. I just can't imagine seeing a band with more energy and creativity than bands like Slovac, Monster Elephante and Astrochem who are all just absolutely crazy on stage. Tackling each other, running around with the crowd, smashing their teeth in half, bouncing like loonies! Yoko must be insane to get so many compliments for their energy.

I swear you PTJY guys have seen us. CIT Band comp heat one this year, after our set i walked into the backstage area and said "SO WE'RE GONNA WIN HEY!?" Then someone said "if it was based on energy maaan, you guys would win" Here is said show. video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2075744177627363505

Oh, I remember you guys. And I watched the video. I particularly liked your solos, they had me entranced.
