The Professors of Cool (Unofficial Biography)

[Ghost of Fraiser]

Just for that, here's Part 2

Some folks wondered what Professors of Cool meant. One man thought it was an anagram, the POC was part of the word APOCALYSPE. With this in mind the government ordered the CD to be destroyed. The worker went back to retrieve it only to find out it was stolen. Someone took the key to the Apocalypse

it's good to dream....

Part Two

-Mid-End Junior Year-

After finding a bassist, Steven, the bad was formed. They meet and a grease pit known as Jack's Pizzarea. After waiting for Dave to finish playing Pac-man on the Pizzarea's Arcade Machine, they all sat down to discuss a name. 3 names emerged...

The Bad Ideas (came up after several stupid names)
Hall Nazi (Talking about the hall monitors)
Professors of Cool (Take on a intended stupid name)

They ended up picking The Bad Ideas. Without any idea, they began practicing in Mark's Basement. Somehow no matter how organized they tried to be, their instruments disagreed with each other. It sounded like rusty punk music, and they went with it. Making a deal with a long time pal, Dave got them a gig at a guy's party. Without a dount, they thought they would fail, they picked up their instruments and played....

...and to their suprise.....the amps werent plugged in. When that was covered they did played. Yet, while Brandon started playing one song, Mark was playing a drums for another, and Jen just stood there. YET, the people didn't boo them off the stage...they threw beer bottles instead. On smashed right into Brandon's heard. Another one cut up Steve's arm. They left like instantly. The walk home was a quiet one. They all looked down at their feet, walking in a staight row. All of a sudden laughter broke out between them. It was either blood loss or just insanity, but it was the start of something else.

-Senior Year-

After a summer of practice, they actually begun to sound like a band. Now with a more smoother alternative sound. They seemed ready for the school's new Battle of The Bands, they missed it last year, and now was their chance. Dave moved 2 weeks into the year, so they decided to keep in strictly rock music. During that summer, they recorded some songs on cassette and made a couple copies of it. It only had 6 songs on it, it was called "A Lousy Peice of Shit made by the Professors of Cool" (They changed the name in honor of Dave leaving the band who made up The Bad Ideas in the first place).

Sooner then they thought, the day of the Battle of The Bands arrived. They put in their 20 bucks entrance fee, and just their luck they went last. They only could do 2 songs. They decided on doing their Super Mario Cover first and then a song called "Frog Grenade." With their only competition being a cheesy as hell punk band and a metal band where in the middle of the song the LEAD SINGER has a asthma attack. They won by a landslide, and what did they get. A plaque, a stupid plaque that said nothing but "Band Winner" on it, total bullshit.

Eitherway the band became popular. Brandon, who worked for the newspaper wrote a one page bad review of them and signed it as Hugh Jassol. "The band is noise for noise sake, it the worst thing i ever heard..." Some people even wrote hate mail to the newspaper saying how much they liked the bad. But that ended soon enough. Oh, how it did.
