 Posted: 06 Dec 2006 01:25 PM Post subject: Mr. Ferrell's Band |
 |
|
When I had Mr. Luman Grover Ferrell for biology at Calexico High School, I remember him mentioning that he had a band. I believe it was with his brothers and I think they were called the Traveling Ferrells, but I'm pretty sure I have the name wrong.
Has anyone heard his band?
I recall him saying they had recordings, but I don't know if they were professional. Anyway, Mr. Ferrell taught Weezer everything they know about emo.
Mr. Ferrell was cool before you were. |

| I remember reading in the IV Press "Stories from the Past" that Grover and the Ferrells (I think that was the name) played at a New Year's party many years back. |

| I never had Ferrel. But I've heard from people that the stuff is actually pretty good. You'd never believe it was really him if you heard it. |

Yeah, he played his 45 for us during biology class one time. The A side was a slow song, kinda like Richie Valens "Donna" and the B side was a faster dance song. He side they thought their A side would be better but that the B side is the one that hit, he told us that they would play it on the radio in Mexicali. That's just what he told us, doesn't seem like the type that would lie to seem cool, cause honestly it's groover. |

| Can some ask Mr. Ferrell to convert his 7-inchers to MP3 or OGG format and up them to his MySpace page or something? |

| If he is so musically inclined, then why did he take away my mp3 player? Yes, I had completed all my work. |

Maybe he just won't go digital? A believer that vinyl is better. |
