IT'S OVER!!!
What people WERE saying about I invented it!
"it's kinda like a cup
of hot coffee in the face"
"eclectic junk-pop"
"I have never been more frightened in my life"
"the audience was polarized, but that's what music is supposed to do!"
"troupe of scummed-out artrockers cum musical actors; bonus for cartoon
programs every show!"
"I Invented
It! entertained the shit out of me. They did more for getting me intoxicated
than the beer did, that's for sure. They also look really good onstage together,
and that means something."
"i invented it! is one of the greatest Cincy bands ever if not the best.
If they were from San Francisco I would drive to Cleveland to see them. "
"they're so bad they're good"
"ear piercing"
"they can't even play their instruments"
"i invented it sucked, fuck pretentious bullshit like that."
"it sounded like they were having some problems"
"entertaining in the worst way you could ever imagine"
"if i invented it!!! came 2 my hometown I would introduce them 2 my folks...they're
that nice "
"they sport tights like no other"
"I tapped my foot during select parts and laughed during other parts"
"intentionally horrible-- i LUV that!"
"I Invented It is the worst thing that God has ever created."
"i invented it was weird, the singer was hot though"
"what a dumb fucking band. get lost."
