I'm a huge fan of SMOASP!!
Learned how to play bass by attempting to figure out their
songs. The Penetrators first show included about 5/20 songs
from them (we had one original).
This included: Bennet Cerf, Spy School Graduation Theme, Who
Framed Whistler's Mother, Egypt Texas, Aunt's Invasion.
We joke around and say we should have called ourselves," The
Shadowy Penetrator Men on A Shadowy Penetrator Planet."
In all, we know around 15 -17 Shadowy men songs. Great
Variety in the song writing.
A new discussion string:
Set lists for your first show?
