So it's a thursday night and all your buddies who are still in college call you up. Of course it's not friday yet, but when you're friends tell you a classic 80's band is in town you suddenly find it hard to resist such a solid time. Okay it's not a big deal, just set three alarms, go home by 1:00am, and drink some water. So much for that idea. After listening to these cats, the recent college grad was 3 hours late to work and very dis-oriented. Lesson learned. But let's go back to the good stuff. If you go to school in the southeast you are bound to see this group. This group of guys in their late 40's (who look around 25) are known by many college students as the Pygmies. And they have made many freshmen dreams come true. Let me explain. Every fall a week comes around called, "rush week" and part of rush week includes the monday night when every freshmen sorority girl gets to go out for the first time. The "pygmies" are always playing somewhere on that special night. I have not only experienced the rush of being at an 80's band party when a freshmen, but I have also gotten to observe other freshmen sucking face while listening the Summer of 69. My first experience with the pygmies was my freshmen year. I was highly intoxicated and they were playing their opener, Nothing But a Good Time. And that is exactly what I was having. The lead singers always threw out condoms to get things moving, but 5 years later they have gotten a little more up front. This past week I decided to make an appearance. I know pretty pathetic, but what else can you do living in a college town as a graduate. Instead of handing out condoms, they were pointing people out in the crowd and saying, "Hey girl, are you having *** with him tonight!" WOA. Now these freshmen don't even have to try. Lucky....Either way if you see these guys on the billboard for your post-game band party I would make an appearance.
