BOGUS BJ EXPERIENCE STAMPS
The stamp issues that have been circulating around the stamp collecting markets recently which depict images of The BJ Experience are announced to be "illegal" issues. Please beware of this attractive se tenant set of 4. The postal authority of Chad has confirmed their illegal nature saying in a press conference last week, "Most of the people, especially the poorer class of people, do not know of The BJ Experience." They furthered their point stating how low I Want Cheesecake made it into their charts. Off the podium, one representative stated, "We have no reason to commemorate this band in the Chad Republic with these attractive commemorative stamps. It is clearly the work of bootleg stamp merchants."
The illegal stamp trade is a big problem facing the UPU today and it seems like no one can escape from being used. "Think of how much money these criminals are making from my likeness!" says BJ via phone interview. "It's despicable!" However, some say these fake stamps aren't all so bad for the band as they have made awareness of the band to a whole new market: philatelists.
"I never heard of the Blow Job [sic] Experience until I bought their stamps! I can't believe I Want Cheesecake didn't make the top of Chad's charts! It's f--ckin' incredible!" said Bert Landroaster, an amateur philatelist. "Yes, we have been seeing more sales from the sort of 'stamp collecting' crowd in the recent months" claimed an off-interview Dippy Records sales associate. Other artists widely portrayed in illegal stamps are Bon Jovi, The Beatles, Grateful Dead and Madonna.
BJ PRESENTS THE THONG WINNER WITH THONG
AUGUST 2004 After a fierce battle to win the official BJ Experience thong and an even longer wait to actually present the thong to its winner, Ms. Tanhauser from Orlando, Florida, the miracle was completed in August 18, 2004. It was on this day that Blaise James Girard, lead singer of The BJ Experience, whose likeness is also on the front end of the thong, presented the winner with this novelty item. Former part-time BJ Experience member Frank Daddy remembers this moment quite fondly. "It definitely went to the right person. Not a finer bootay this side of the international date line!" was his official statement to the press. However, it wasn't all pastels and crayons for the lucky winner. Only hours after receiving the thong, threats were made to her demanding she gives the thong to the rightful owner. Apparently, it leaked out that Tanhauser wasn't in fact the first name drawn out of the baseball cap and one of the other entry contestants wanted a re-draw. This of course never occurred and the thong remains in Tanhauser's custody.
THE BJ EXPERIENCE FIND SOME TIME TO HANG WITH FAN
JUNE 2004 "You never know when it's going to happen" Tropical Barber said about the recent encounter with a fan. "One minute we're doing a treacherous photo shoot and the next, we're just hanging out with a fan" he concluded.
During June 12th's photo session for the new BJ Experience album, the band hit up the streets and beaches of Miami Beach to get the shots that would become their artwork for the new album. During this session, however, a fan spotted the group and decided to hang with them. Not the first time this has happened, the band were more than willing to take a 2 minute break and drink down a couple of cold ones with the lucky fan. Unfortunately, all work and no play makes no artwork and the band had to say farewell to their fan as they ran away to their next location.
FORMER MANAGER JOSH GUY COMES BACK HOME AS BJ PREDICTED!
APRIL 2004 Some say BJ is a prophet. One of BJ's most famous prophecies was seeing former band guru Josh Guy come back to Miami Beach after moving and wedding in Texas in 2002. This came true in April of 2004, when Josh Guy arrived by Greyhound a soon-to-be-divorced man. "This is the kinda thing BJ always would talk about. We'd think he was just crazy but look, it came true!" said one ex-nay say er."Yeah!" agreed another person next to the ex-nay say er. However, not all BJ's prophecies are very likely to occur. His personal wedding to Britney Spears and the idea of his friend George Marban to shoot out into space for being so 'cool' are highly unlikely. Time will tell if BJ is a modern-day Nostradamus or just a freak with a goatee.
BJ & FATHER BLOOPY IN DRUNKEN BINGE PERFORM TOGETHER!
EARLY 2004 In a truly rare occasion, Father Bloopy, together with DC3's Derek Cintron & Fernando Perdomo backed BJ in a sloppy rendition of "Oops! I Did It Again." Too drunk to remember, BJ put on quite a show, especially to his dedicated female fans who were gathered on that Tuesday night @ Purdy Lounge in South Beach. When BJ wasn't on the floor, he was busy forgetting the lyrics to the bands most poignant cover song. "He was just too drunk to work with," Bloopy later commented. "However," he added, "a good time was shared by all, especially the BJ Experience virgins in the crowd. Rest assured, I don't think they'll ever see something quite like what happened that night ever again!" The show didn't end on stage either. At the end of the night, BJ, feeling randy, went on to hump the parking meters outside the club to a gathered crew of Paparazzi's.
EARLY RETIREMENT FOR THE BJ EXPERIENCE??
LATE 2003 Most of The BJ Experience's activities these days are behind computers or in the streets instead of rehearsal & recording rooms & stages across South Florida. Unfortunately, the bands increasing personnel problems have halted the machine that was once the band. 2003 saw work almost exclusively on the "True Untold Story" DVD documentary which kept running into mostly technical difficulties. A couple of re-formations, and line-up changing brought the band back to the streets for some memorable performances, most notably on Ocean Drive, South Beach. However, no new album has appeared leading to many fans wondering if this is part of an early retirement plan. "I'm always gonna be BJ, and that's just the way it is," BJ slammed against these accusations. "It is true the band is barely a band these days but that doesn't mean we are going to retire," Bloopy concluded. So keep your arms and legs crossed for future works by the band!
