What does TMBG stand for? I may know this band in the back of my head. Somehow. I think they like Pespi.

I love They Might Be Giants! And "They'll Need A Crane" is probably my favorite song of theirs. I met John Flansburgh outside of a show in Orlando back in 1990. He was really nice, and he signed my ticket stub. It had a guitar for the O in John, just like yours does. I wonder if he signs his checks that way? John Linnell wouldn't come out, though. Flansburgh is one of only two famous people I've ever met in my life. The other one was David J of Bauhaus and Love and Rockets fame. I'm a huge fan, and I was really too freaked out to say much of anything to him. He was really sweet, and he signed my CD, and talked to my husband while I stood there frozen with a big idiotic smile on my face. And he posed for a picture with us. Cool guy.

Yea, I met both of them in 1990 at a signing in Dallas. I really didn't get to say much to them since the line was out the door. The record shop was pretty big since it used to be a supermarket, and they had the Johns in one corner near a fire exit in the back. I got there about two hours before they were supposed to arrive, and waited an additional 45 minutes to see them. Linnell wasn't that talkative, but Flansburgh was.
As for he that has privately messaged me, no, I am NOT selling it.
I also have a copy of Lincoln in which John F. signs his name where the o is a pair of glasses. If I can find it, I'll post that picture.
I don't know if they like Pepsi or not, but I do know they let one of their songs be used in a Dr. Pepper commercial.

I don't see a can of pepsi in the picture. The can in the lower left side is that of Schaffer (sp?) beer. Why they drink that is beyond me, as I've been told by many a person it tastes like it was filtered through barnyard animals.

Oh. Well, it looked like Pespi at first glance.
