Worst Band in Heaven (on Earth)

[Pride of Staten Island]

Tinted Windows are:

Former Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha

I really hope this is a hoax of some kind.

Jeez, what kind of bizarre party did these guys get drunk and meet at?

[crumbum]

This reminds me of another bizarre supergroup -- a few years ago the band Dando Lee Peterson Schwartzman (that's Evan, Ben, Tom and Jason) released an EP on a small Australian Label. That collaboration was mildly amusing to think about; this one is deeply troubling.

And don't forget Minfinmcfinphinmin, or whatever that group was called.

It sounds like a real life Scharpling and Wurster bit.

It'll be perfect if they all wear sunglasses for the show.  Or if they reveal some new Windows_TM product.

Tinted Windows will perform its 1st "real" show at the South by Southwest festival in Austin on March 20.

Man I almost wanna go to this!

I sincerely think these guys might be great.

Also, it would be great if Joaquin Phoenix made a "guest rapper" appearance on their album.
 
Also, it would be awesome if this band placed their career in the collective hands of the FOT. They could be the first band to be managed by a messageboard.

I'd like to start by suggesting some song titles:

"Billy Corgan can bite me"

"Robin Zander is a tool"

"Stacy's Mom isn't All That"

"Zac's Drumming is Sub-par"

haa!  They could all fall off the stage together in a dramatic expression of self-reflexive embarrassment.

I miss Radar so much. I wish they had kept their website as it was after their magazine folded for the third (and final?) time.
