bubu made the rock band hall of fame

on a personal note, i would like to congratulate bubu on their induction into the rock band hall of fame. most of the credit goes to my singer, YEAHYEAH (who also happens to be the computing services/IT/network guy where i work) and, or course, me, who is most proficient with the axe (both lead and bass) but is also more than competent with the sticks (drums) and has had to take that role when friends with no rhythm whatsoever come over and want to play. a special thanks goes to maneet and good sir thomas playing bass and lead guitar respectively for assisting YEAHYEAH and i on that fateful night. i'd also like to thank diiiiiiiiiidddtttyy, good sir thomas, lonlon and YEAHYEAH for helping the band regain several hundred thousand fans that we lost when i had too much to drink and repeatedly played and failed the song 'gimme shelter' by the stones (alcohol gives me sausage fingers). i'd also like to thank alex (who is a phenom with the sticks), tha dream (who really isn't that good with the sticks), superman, and winnie (who recently became tha dream's wife), for their help along the way.

come to think of it, all the above mentioned people with the exception of good sir and winnie work with YEAHYEAH and i. i think this is one of the reasons that i love where i work - i like to hang out with my coworkers, be it going out boating, going out to a bar, hanging out late at work late and discussing business over a beer or just having everyone come over for some rock band jam'ins. at least half of tha dream's wedding last week was composed of coworkers. i genuinely consider these people friends and am eternally grateful that i work for a company that encourages this kind of environment.
