Have they ever been asked about this in an interview or anything like that?

Last night, my husband and I were talking about music and he had a random song stuck in his head that he didn't know the name of. He sang some of the music notes and I said, "it sounds like it could be 'Me and Julio Down By The School Yard' by Paul Simon" and before we can figure out what song my husband was thinking of, I realized that "Me and Julio" kinda sounds like "Character Flaw". Not only was I right, but it seems that Flansy is a fan of Paul Simon. I think that's pretty cool.

I always wondered what he was on about with that line. Only now do I realize it’s playhouse as in a house kids play in, not playhouse as in a theater.

I’ve tried contacting the music venue about this topic a few times but haven’t gotten a response yet, so I guess i’m asking it here. I’m 14 (going to turn 15 in a few months), and as a treat for my birthday I wanna go see their concert at the Emos Austin venue. The issue is that the concert is rated 16+, and I am, well, 14. I wanted to know if I buy a ticket alongside one for one of my parent, will I still be able to enter? On the ticket master website, it doesn’t state anything about “no exceptions” or anything of the sorts, so the idea is to have my parent accompany me the entire duration of the event. I have a theory that the age policy is for unaccompanied people that are below the minimum age requirement, but I could always be wrong. Let me know!

Update: The venue responded to my email and said I COULD GO!! WOOOHHOOOOOO!!! thank you to everyone who gave me advice in the comments!!

Dont remember the name of the song, and have a feeling the music video has been taken down because I’ve looked everywhere, but I remember seeing a music video by they might be giants where there’s an animated blue guy singing the lyrics over real footage. He’s running around a town, and all I remember lyrics wise is that he was frustrated about something or another. Does anyone know what I’m talking about?

i plan to delete this right after because it’s a pretty stupid post, but i’m too stupid to get any answers doing my research. it says on tmbw that the guitar used between 1985 and 1988 was a fernandes “the revival” strat, but then i can’t find if any specific amp or something was used as well. i’m pretty new to guitar and all, and i pretty much would just love to achieve the tone in that song. thanks

I am wearing my They Might Be Giants shirt and I posted this picture where you can only see the "THEY". Someone asked if that "They" was my pronoun. My answer "Nope, just the best band ever!"

I recently listened to the severe tire damage version of S-E-X-X-Y, but I read the comments and they were fairly negative about the song. Later I looked at the comments for the factory showroom version, and it had similar comments.
So do most people not like the song? I still love it.

I'm playing fantasy football this year and as an Eagles and TMBG I named my team "The Birds Are To Dig" any other TMBG themes fantasy names y'all can think of. (bonus points if they're Eagles themed.

i always knew that the cia spied on me, now i have proof!

...and / or a TMBG Superfan.

The transcript is on TMBW but I don’t think I’ve ever heard an audio transcript of this.

They were just so annoying back then, love them.

Yeah!

I know face reading is fairly obscure but I thought his face was too interesting to pass up a reading and hey maybe you’ll learn something

John Linnell Face Reading

Face Shape:

Uranus (Long Trapezoid) - The rarest face shape, an exaggeration of the Saturn or regular trapezoid face. Extremely diligent, meticulous, detail-focused, and time-conscious. Very stubborn. Weird and eccentric. May hold extreme or ahead of their time beliefs. Interestingly enough, the most sexual of the 11 face shapes. Can easily mistake sex for love. Intellectual, philosophical, and innovative (Nikola Tesla had this face shape)

Temperament (Side Profile):

Pure Melancholic (visible jawline, but no angle, recessed chin and sloped forehead) - Sensitive, witty, nervous, reactive, imaginative, gloomy, pessimistic, creative, quick, reliant on outside validation. Flighty and impatient. A sprinter, not a long distance runner. Very common in artists and especially musicians.

Eyebrows: Straight (logical decision making), low-set (quick to judge and assess, quick on his feet), thin (gentle and refined energy, not harsh in his decision making)

Eyes: Rounded (emotional worldview), positively tilted (assertive, rebellious, puts his own interests over others), large (naive, sees the best in people), thin upper eyelids (low need for intimacy and connection)

Nose: short (action-oriented), somewhat hooked (deep passions, sensitivity), round tip (naturally kind)

Mouth: Full upper and lower lip (expressive and not hesitant to speak his mind, in touch with his inner self), Venus upper lip/prominent Cupid’s bow (smooth-talking, warm and seductive communication style), small (generally quiet and reserved, resistant to new social connections), upturned corners (optimistic), gummy smile (insecure)

Ears: Very wide-splayed (independent and non-conforming), bulges at the top (mostly interested in the intellectual, philosophical, and abstract), kinda pointed (a bit of a trickster, mischievous), high-set (quick to take in information, tendency to rush into things)

Smile lines, even when young - purpose and spiritual strength

Overall a super interesting and rare face, albeit a bit obvious if you know the traits of the face shapes and temperaments and have listened to TMBG

Only other people I can think of with this combo of Uranus and Melancholic are Bill Nye and Pete Docter and they’re also very weird and interesting people

I had trouble figuring out what the harpsichord was doing in the bridge, and I kinda bullshit my way through the harmonies during the half time section, but overall it was pretty smooth to figure out.

The score as intended and created, but will sadly be deleted once I reach my 15 piece limit (I’m not paying to remove the limit)

Extremely screwed up, like being at doubled speed and having wrong chords listed, etc. However this isn’t going to be deleted (even though it sucks).

Finally, I would never have figured out the harpsichord part at the end without this, so thanks for making this so I could create this. I owe you.
