If I were in a band
... it would apparently be a bluegrass band from somewhere in the deep south. I would likely be the person playing the jug (you know, the person who blows across the mouth of a jug and makes deep hooty noises?) and perhaps adds some other percussion sounds here or there. I've never claimed to be very musical, despite eight+ years of parental investment into piano lessons.
Anyhow, this fun little meme that I found over at Halushki (quite likely one of the funniest blogs out there) is how I spent my lunch hour while working on a day that everyone else seems to be not working. It's technically a holiday, but I'm expecting a guest next week from Ontario, and I thought I'd pay it forward, if you will, with my work attendance.
I'm so happy I have a flexible-hours job.
So the meme basically goes like this:
The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. Finally, click on this link: http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
You then take the pic and add your band name and the album title to it, then post your pic.
Okay, I admit it. I cheated a little with the picture, because the first one I had just didn't cut it, but the band name and album title are both legit.
Incidentally, our imaginary band would later release a second album titled "Walk in the Sun", which would prove to be significantly less popular than the first, and thus the band would quickly dissolve and we would all go back to our day jobs.
Speaking of which, I need to get back to work. Be sure to leave a comment if you give it a try.

Ooooh. Kind of like this meme theory. May give it a go tomorrow.
And definitely the second album cover. Definitely.
Hawkins County Courthouse may be one of the best bluegrass band names I've ever heard!
And those album covers are way cool.
Dude...I'm signing you to my label.
LOVE the first album cover, title and band name! This is a great meme - I followed your comment over from Halushki.

Pretty good, eh? I'm off to check out my photo. I'm glad you admitted you cheated on yours because that album photo is way too nice.

Check out the cover on my facebook...
