RANDOM THOUGHTS AND FACTS

� Andrew has two tattoos: one on his right hand in between his thumb and index finger and the obvious one oh his left arm of the words "MUSIC" with Van Gough's "Stary Night" painting around it.

� Andrew also has his eyebrow pierced.

� Will usually performs barefoot.

� In the original Something Corporate band there was a guy named Ruben and there was no Will. I have heard that Ruben quit the band to further his education therefore, Will joined.

� Clutch has his lip pierced.

� "Clutch" is not his real name no matter what the official website tells you. Look in the Ready . . . Break! CD, look in there for a hint. ;o)

� Andrew is the youngest member and Will is the oldest.

� Josh likes to be spontaneous with his hair.

� Before the song "Drunk Girl" on the Ready . . . Break! CD, if you listen close, you can hear one of the band members walk through a door and say, "So.. who's the lucky lady?"

� Also before "Babies of the 80s" you can hear another band member say "Red light means STOP!"

� And again, before "Mulligan Goes to War" you can hear Andrew say, "What can I say? The man had chiggers."

� The majority (if not all) of the Something Corporate shows with The Juliana Theory sold out. (Including the one in Cincinnati, Ohio, that I went to!)

� Andrew's piano stickers are gifts from fans!

� "Punk Rock Princess" is a cool, catchy song. But an older recording of it was a very slow, pretty ballad, and was called "Heroine."

� Five songs in "Leaving Through the Window" gets its lush sounds from a 26 piece orchestra! The string arrangements were written and conducted by Grammy winner Paul Buckmaster, who also worked with Train, David Bowie, and SC's role model, Elton John.

� Kevin got his alias The Legendary Clutch from a cable movie!

� One of their arguably best songs is called "Konstantine," which is over 9 � minutes long! However it's so good that listeners usually don't even realize how long it is. Despite its length and challenging piano part, Something Corporate plays this song quite a bit live.

� When they are performing at big clubs such as the House of Blues, SC sometimes has a small orchestra play along with them for songs like "Walking By."

� The band agrees that the best pick-up line is Clutch's....handing a girl his phone and saying "Here's my cell....I'll call you."

� Clutch, Brian, and Andrew won a high school's Battle of the Bands. Even though they broke up after that, of course they would soon reunite to form Something Corporate.

� That first band was very hard for the members to come up with a name! It took them nearly 2 weeks.

� Something Corporate likes to cover songs during concerts, ranging from Weezer to NSync!

� In the music video, Chris Owens plays Jordan. He has played the "Shermanator" in the "American Pie" movies!

� Andrew says that "Konstantine" is about a girl who broke her heart....so he wants to break her heart six times over.

� "I Woke Up in a Car" is based on the images from their "Leaving Through the Window" CD booklet!

� Coming up with "Something Corporate" was a complete accident....Andrew simply stated that the name should be "something corporate," as in corporate sounding, but he liked the way it sounded!

� Andrew says that "iF yoU C Jordan" was never meant to be their breakthrough hit. When he originally wrote it, it was out of anger, a joke song for his friends. But the band liked it so much that they recorded it!

� I have often wondered if there is some connection with the month December. I mean, there's "Forget December", "your mother was born in December" from "Walking By", and "wake up to the thought of you, it's December.." from "I don't Want a Job". Maybe it's just the fact that December rhymes with a lot of things (kinda.) Maybe there's a "connection". Let me know what you think.
