Shameless, Nameless, Another Man’s Sac
Nicknames denote affection, personality, and the engendered “making fun of” that only someone thoroughly loved and respected can birth in others. Glass Rock and Tall Firs guitar player Tubes Mullan has struggled gnashing teeth for years in the nickname-less wilderness with no shortage of bewilderment and hurt feelings not to mention very sore teeth -heh heh- Well, during Glass Rock’s recent pow wow at Echo Canyon Studios, the band took a chance and began calling Tubes “Aaron.” Suddenly “Hey Aaron,” or “Help me Aaron, or “Salvage this Aaron,” or “Can we hear that again without guitars Aaron,” became as oft heard as expletive-expletive-dog-drugs in the control room. Said guitarist Dave Mies, “This thing just stuck. It felt so natural to call him Aaron.” The origin of the name is unclear, though Aaron of the Bible seems to have been the go-between for Moses between well, Moses and the Royal Court of Wherever-The-Hell-They-Lived. How this applies to Tubes we might never know, but from here on out, it’s Aaron for life. Congratulations Tubes! We mean “Aaron!”

More on Moses, Has Glass Rock Gone Too Far? [NEW EDIT, THANK YOU]
Many have struggled ^ with who they are and what they do. But not listing Glass Rock as one of the bands on your My Space page? . . .
And what is [my] significant other doing looking at [unidentified's] My Space page? As long as we’re all honest here [I] can deal with it.
NEW YORK TIMES VALIDATES AND POSSIBLY EXONERATES MATT AND RYNNN (<click here you illiterate)
Three out of five Glass Rock members are sleep disturbed. The worst of the bunch, perhaps betrayed in their uncannily smooth and instantaneous rhythym connection are Matt (bass, heavy metal) and Rynnn (drums, chatter). In his unwitting nocturnal life, Matt has enjoyed practicing ninjitsu, sexual role playing, and shouts that could rival those of Guantanamo Bay itself and Alan Vega himself. Rynnn’s slumber-time exploits pillow leg violence have been recounted to his horror at a dinner party, whereupon he realized he had no recollection of his night time adventures. This posed many questions for Glass Rock on how to handle 2009’s UK Tour and the dread continues. When their eyes are open are Matt and Rynnnn sleeping or awake? When they converse with you and degrade you, are they in real time or dreamland? The messed up thing is they don’t know and may even tell you they’re awake when they’re not! Despite crucial codeword “Walnuts” being established in order to wake up these drifters and grifters, the band still has major concerns about their upcoming stay in Detroit. And guess what? All of this is true!
“Being killed by a blow to my carotid artery is not my thing,” says guitarist Dave Mies. “Even if Rynnn is massaging my [large] feet at the time.”
We are currently taking suggestions at Glass Rock Life on how to deal with this. Dr. Jubb has not responded at all. Do we keep Matt and Rynnn up all night? Do they receive separate rooms [filled with cable television,wi-fi, mints, mini-bar] chained from the outside, similar to Aaron’s arrangements on tours with more high profile bands [sans cable, wi-fi, mints, mini-bar]? Please experts, charlatans, and concerned citizens write as soon as possible. Home remedies welcome.
