<aspect ratio Rock Duo Albany NY>
 

Aspect Ratio (a.k.a. Jim Gross and Izzy Singer) is a garage band. And that's an honorable title to hold. Why? Because garage bands have always put the whimsy, the laughter, the fun into rock and roll! Think about it: Would you rather sit through 80 minutes of “Tales From Topographic Oceans”, or sing along with “Louie Louie”? The latter will be finished 78 minutes sooner, and you'll have a lot more fun. The choice between being pounded by Nine Inch Nails or bouncing along with the Trashmen is no choice at all. Because “Surfin' Bird” was fun! Trent Reznor may be many things, but he sure as hell ain't fun!

Friday Night, Hays Kansas

There's not a whole lot to do,
Except to drive the main drag or go to the dances,
and the beer is 3.2,
It's a Friday night in Hays Kansas,

Well the main drag is about a mile long,
from one end of town to the other,
And the kids all drive back and forth,
looking for a friend maybe a lover,

Honk or wave as you drive by,
If you see somebody you'd like to meet,
And when you come around again,
You pull it on over to the side of the street,

I met a Kansas girl and we went for a walk,
and she tried to look so elegant,
That's when she told me that she really liked the way that I talk,
because I “sounded so intelligent,”

It's a really friendly town,
and the girls in Hays they really aim to please,
But it's way too flat for me,
Cuz a guy like me, I really need more trees,
