I've not only forgotten lyrics, but forgotten entire songs while the rest of the band just stares at me like I’m an idiot. Not much to do at that point...It doesnt happen often, and everyone is human. "Imperfection is what makes us unique." That's what my friend Matty told me.

Cory (Bat Leather) SPB: What is your favorite music-related film or documentary? Cory: It’s a tie between The Color of Noise and Some Kind of Monster.
