"What can I say, I've been classically trained to rock your socks off," says That Guy of Big Floppy Disk, voted this year's Best Cover Band. It's probably the most serious thing the man has said in years. These four goofballs created Big Floppy Disk to achieve supreme cheesiness, and it's clearly working: It's That Guy's second year as Hartford's Best Keyboardist, and BFD's first as Best Cover Band. But don't let the shtick fool you: These fellas gig hard, playing out every single weekend they can. When asked what he feels is the secret to his success, That Guy is quick to note, "Most great rock 'n' roll keyboardists use only one hand to play. I've been known to use both hands at times."

"I don't really know why I got Best Keys," says That Guy, suggesting that "Best Keys While Intoxicated" might be more appropriate. Formerly known as SideShow, the members of that band regrouped and formed Big Floppy Disk, a cover band whose mission was to plumb the depths of cheese. That Guy and his keyboard, dubbed the Sex Organ, vowed to leave no stone unturned, busting out schlock like Simple Minds alongside the usual suspects.

   About Big Floppy Disk

Widely heralded as the best looking band in the Northeast, Big Floppy Disk brings the kind of party that can't be ignored. Legions of loyal fans, known as The Diskheads, have been knocking down the doors at clubs across the tri-state area just to catch a glimpse of the band crowned Best Cover Band by The 2008 Hartford Advocate Grand Band Slam. Not since the Beatles has a band seen such hysteria from the ladies when performing. Big Floppy Disk has the sound, maturity and sexual appetite of a much younger band. Always the giver, keyboardist That Guy, winner of both the 2007 & 2008 Hartford Advocate Grand Band Slam for Best Keyboardist, gives free breast examinations at every show. Johnny 5's low bass gives just the right vibrations, while Dr. J's beats keep you going all night long. And no one thinks Freddy 4Play is a better guitarist than Freddy 4Play himself, who can often be found between sets cleaning his guitar with hundred dollar bills. Clubs have been clamoring to hire Big Floppy Disk due to the extremely high beer sales as the band often drinks as much as the entire crowd.

Twice as energetic as the competition and three times as obnoxious, this is the kind of party where the hangover is worth it!

Big Floppy Disk is proudly sponsored by Coors Light and Murray's Dental Dams.
