Seriously? A childhood full of Warner Brothers cartoons, lots of sugar, and really irreverent friends who amplified one anothers' antisocial behavior. No bands. Bands are a joke. In an era where everyone has access to recording tools, rockstars are irrelevant to everyone with a brain, and musical influences are desperate supplication. There is only folk music, son. Real folk music doesn't try to be everything to everyone, it is an expression of real life conditions in some locale. This is Carroll County AP student porch music, an art bomb in a corn field of trivial automata.

A synesthesia between your ears and your sixth sense, otherwise known as your asshole.
The Apologizers is br0d's oldest, nearest, and dearest music project. The Apologizers started in 1990 at Salisbury State University when Dr. Ray Zeigler made the mistake of letting br0d into the school's music studio. Immediately br0d began making songs to try and fuck with Andy Hall's and JJ's heads. Now 15 years and roughly 300 SONGS later, the project is still vital and still more fun and interesting than trying to woo people with pop music. The unique thing about the Apologizers is that anyone and everyone is a member, probably 20 or more people have collaborated on this in 15 years time, and everyone who participates is considered a member. The project completely and deliberately defies genre classification, and there is absolutely no limit to what it will do, thus the name and the preemptive apology. Possibly the closest relative is Aphex Twin. CDs are available at boole.org.
BOOKING:
The Apologizers have played very rarely since 1990, and will not play ordinary gigs involving hands being clapped overhead and swayed in unison. We are an experimental art project. Don't even send us promo spam, or we will send you a demo of Winger claiming it is ours, and then ruin your show once we're booked. If you are interested in booking the Apologizers you need to:
1. Locate a plastic blimp, as we require this as payment for the show. If unavailable, a semi-elaborate hand drawing of a blimp will suffice.
2. Sign a disclaimer agreeing that you require absolutely no guarantee of listenability or entertainment value from the performance. Even if every single fan leaves the concert in disgust, you may not end the show before the allotted time. Only if club rules and/or local laws pertaining to anything OTHER than entertainment value are being broken by the band, may a show be stopped by a promoter. Please do not endeavor to book us if you cannot agree to this point in earnest. We are not responsible for injuries suffered by fans who attempt to interfere with the show.
