Let’s face it – every day we are routinely bombarded with questions. When you’re an emerging media company in Nashville, people just want to know what your opinions are on everything. It’s only natural. And, since our duty is to serve the people, well, we have no choice but to be present. That’s the SoBro Way. Also, aren’t mailbags just a barrel of laughs anyway? Welcome to the newest weekly recurring feature up in this bitch: The SoBros Mailbag. As always, hit us with those mailbag questions @SoBrosNetwork on Twitter, email ’em to me anonymously at thesobrosnetwork@gmail.com. And, holy shit, I need to update this terrible intro paragraph that I’ve been using literally ever since I started writing this column…
Question:
Top three greatest supergroups?
— Steven McCash (@MC_Cash75) June 17, 2021
Me: Power Station, Velvet Revolver, Lucy Pearl
Answer:
First of all, yes – I’m aware that this edition of the SoBros Mailbag is dropping on a Monday. My internet went out on Friday RIGHT in the middle of me answering questions. Once it was restored, I was all booked up and haven’t gotten the chance to finish it until now (Sunday night). But, I’m not just going to ignore those questions! They need answering, too. Anyway, on to Steven’s question.
I’m glad you said Velvet Revolver, Steven, because that was the first group that popped into my brain. When Contraband dropped in 2004, I couldn’t stop blasting it – “Slither” and “Fall to Pieces” were premiere rock singles of the era. I also really dug Audioslave, and was into them big time for a hot minute. Finally, I don’t know if you would necessarily count it as a “super-group,” but I have to mention Robert Plant and Alison Krauss as Raising Sand is one of my favorite albums of all time.
Question:
Dirty Penny or Yankee Dime?
— Tom Hanks & the Guilty Pleasures (@SoBroCadbury) June 17, 2021
Answer:
I’m going to steer away from kissin’ anus every chance I get, so I’ll have to confidently and comfortably say the Yankee Dime here.
Question, from Grant on Twitter:
Read your article on Pontoon Saloon. Those guys are great. The word “[REDACTED]” is abolished as its trademarked. (You’re welcome) I also own party buses on Broadway. Why are they so popular? Its simple. Girls don’t want to dance with creepy guys. Party bus 1 creepy guys 0.Answer:
You learn something new every day running SoBros Network, I swear. I know this isn’t a mailbag question, but since Grant raises a good point (and because he replied to my call for mailbag questions), I figured I’d include it here. I’m all for creepy dudes taking Ls, and let’s be real – Broadway is littered with them. We’ve all seen them. But, I had never really thought about [REDACTED] in this regard. So, if any of these crazy ass party buses and rides are making women feel safer in this city, I’m all for it. Maybe I won’t be as hard on the [REDACTED] industry moving forward.
Question, from Aura on Instagram:
PEANUTTT
Answer:
That’s just what she calls Bucky. Bucky is the star of any video he’s in, even if it’s just me asking for mailbag questions.
Keep the questions coming – catch y’all next week!
