Our brand!; RONI: We don't have a brand, John. |comic strip | panel 2 - JOHN: We do so! We're an alt-blues five-piece that plays radio-friendly rock with a garage sensibility.; RONI: John, none of those words even-... wait, there's only four of us, idiot. |comic strip | panel 3 - JOHN: Yes, but we project the image of a five-piece, Roni.; RONI: Sweet Lord, you're an idiot.; DAN: I could just take this off and wear my undershirt. |comic strip | panel 4 - JOHN: Dan, Dan, Dan... (sigh) You've got so much to learn about the industry.; RONI: You're an idiot with a dumbass sensibility.; DAN: Ooo, John, two words: neck scarf. |
