Big Break

Guys, I've got some great news. I just got off the phone with Vince, and he's finally come through for us...

No, the Des Moines gig fell through...

No, that was never actually set up, Vince lied to me about that one. But this is so much cooler than Oklahoma City. Trust me. You know how I told you Vince was talking to some dude at a big advertising agency in New York? Well, they listened to our demo, and they dig it, bro! We fucking got it, man! We're doing a commercial!...

No, it's for, like, Lean Cuisine or some shit...

No! Listen, dude!...

No, they didn't want any of our originals. But it's not so bad. We get to re-record one of the Monkees' songs!...

Hey, man, they're legends. And we're going to be recording "Pleasant Valley Sunday!" Carole King, buddy! It's what you've always wanted, am I right?...

How can you say that, Phil? "You've Got a Friend," "I Feel the Earth Move," "It's Too Late!" Fucking, Tapestry, dude! Tapestry! She's a fucking living legend, bro!...

Well, no. We just have to record the chorus with different words, and then they'll splice it together so...

I don't know, something like "another healthy diet FUNday" instead of "Another Pleasant Valley Sunday," or some shit...

Well, I still think it's fucking badass, man...

How can you say that? This is what we've been working for! Darius Rucker didn't just write Cracked Rearview Mirror out of the blue. Those dudes toiled in the trenches for years!...

Well, no, I don't know that for a fact, but those dudes were OLD when that album came out. And look at them now! I bet those fuckers tag so much ass - whenever they want, man. Whenever they want...

Don't fuck this up for us, Jake! Don't fucking do it! We've worked too hard and too long to let your fucking pride get in the way...

I promise you, man, this is going to lead to bigger things. We'll totally see a jump in our MySpace views. And they're paying $16,000, bro! You can finally get that Japanese Strat you've been fiending. No more of this Grog & Tankard bullshit...

Well, don't think about it for too long, dudes. I've gotta give Vince an answer by tomorrow morning...
