I just want to say that this post is NOT just here because no one was posting and I felt the need for a fresh subject line. No sair, this post has a VERY important and specific subject I think you will all want to discuss.Of course I don't know what that topic is, but believe me, it's important! And specific!Any suggestions?------------------

Actually, if I remember correctly, it was Rivers Cuomo in collaboration with some other band, after Weezer temporarily split... But I'm tired (so tired), so tired of weeeeearing socks (so tired)... wait, I'm not wearing any socks. But i am tired. So I can't use that random-trivia maven's best friend, the Internet, to find out What Is the Deal here. Maybe tomorrow. Tomorrow, when I'll also get around to restarting my comic. Tomorrow will be a good day.--tmk

Yes, but sadly, the song's actual lyrics don't apply to me. And by the way, I found out what was the deal on that song:
<A HREF="http://www.weezer.net/info/tunes/index.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.weezer.net/info/tunes/index.html</A> So now you know. And knowing is half the battle. But it would take some weird battle for knowing that to actually be relevant.

maybe i missed it but i didn't see anything on that page explaining what that song is about....indulge me, tmk!------------------

notes: homie is rivers cuomo (weezer) along with members of cake, the rentals, soul coughing and soma. "american girls" was written in '97 by rivers while he was in boston. a faster live version was played which eventually turned into this, the only "homie" effort to date."You know, the amount of energy expended on this particular bit of trivia is becoming increasingly larger than the amount of energy it deserves...

I think I know what the "YOU'RE OUT OF THE BAND!!!" thing is from. It's off of the Tenacious D cd isn't it. When Kyle quits the band.

EsylaMcSassy · Post by **EsylaMcSassy** » Tue Feb 26, 2002 12:29 am

Tencious D??

What does that have to do with a rutabega tlaking to a grapefruit?

Hm, I remember this thread. I posted on this thread before it was cool, man! All you poseur monkeys and such are not one tenth as cool as... well, you're probably cooler than me, but that just leaves me to revel in my geekiness.

now is not time for geekiness. now is time to wonder what that tenacious d thing was about. later is time for geekiness, and then...time for POLITICAL REVOLUTION!

Tenacious D has nothing to do with a rutabega tlaking with a grapefruit. However, it does have something to do with one of your previous posts on this tread. The one where you said "YOU'RE OUT OF THE BAND!!!"
This quote can also be heard on the Tenacious D cd. It's the intro to "Kyle Quit The Band". It's tagged onto the end of track 9. "Inward Singing". So umm... that's what I was referring to. Now, if you would be so kind as to enlighten all of us. What is this buisness about a rutabega and a grapefruit?
I've scoured the internet trying to find the answer and I've come up empty handed. I suppose that's all I have to say. Buh bye!

and then the pope says "rectum? nearly killed 'em!"

EsylaMcSassy · Post by **EsylaMcSassy** » Mon Mar 04, 2002 10:27 pm

Retarded_Monkey, methinks you are a tad confused.
Here's the breakdown for ye:

Someone asked me what the Rutabega said to the Grapefruit. I answered, "You're out of the band!". My answer is a pop culture reference, albeit very obscure.
This is not a Tenacious D reference, because Jack Black is not a grapefruit, and last I checked, Kyle is not a rutabega.

I guess I'll give you guys the answer, even tho you'll probably think it's dumb...heh ^_^
Any of you remember those tv ads they had back in the...say, late 80's, maybe early 90's, for California Raisins? They depicted a rock group of claymation raisins who sang "I Heard it Through The Grapevine". They also made a short film about this fictional group, which was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid. Sadly, we've lost it now. But it showed ther group before their "big hit", when the bass was a grapefruit. When they got a real manager (a rutabetga, naturally) he kicked out the grapefruit and got them another raisin to sing bass.

So, now you know!
*insert overused g.i. joe catchphrase here*

p.s. any information leading to my obtaining a copy of said movie will re highly rewarded!
