TLDR: fuck Train.

Fucking Train. Those guys were such dicks. My band opened for them back in the early 2000’s at the Troubadour in LA. They were total cunts. Blew past the other band’s sound check time by taking FUCKING HOURS for their sound check, then went in to our time. Our manager went right up to the front of the stage and asked them to wrap it up. Their response was “when your name is on the top of the marquee, you can take as much time as you want.” Ok you walking penis.

Then, when we were in what we thought was the green room for ALL of the bands, they were all, “GTFO! That’s our buffet. Your dressing room is down the hall.” Our dressing room was a closet that was FULL of their instrument cases. We were laughing at how fuckin seriously they took themselves and how cunty they were. It was hilarious. I can’t hear Drops Of Jupiter without imagining Eric Cartman signing it – “eh eh yeah”. So yeah, my guess is they originally wanted to call the band “Trainload of Dildos” but it didn’t fit on the album cover, so they shortened it to Train.
