MySpace influences

Feb 14, 2006

JOHN: OK... then MySpace has a spot for our influences. CHRISTINA: How about John Adams? DAN: John Adams?
CHRISTINA: Yeah. I read a biography of him last month. It's really influenced me. JOHN: I'm not putting John Adams, Christina.
CHRISTINA: OK... but he's one of the most unheralded heros of the American revolution. JOHN: Great! But how many chords did he know?
RONI: How many chords do you know? JOHN: I know some chords! DAN: How 'bout Frank Zappa? He was a revolutionary sorta dude. CHRISTINA: Zappa knew some chords.
