Hard ‘n Phirm: Moose Lodge

This song is what you would call a “deep cut.” It’s on our non-vinyl album “Horses and Grasses” but never gets any attention because we didn’t make a video for it, nor do we ever play it live because we don’t have the dough to lug a Baritone around the country. Unfortunate, really, because it happens to be my favorite song of ours. Musically it was inspired by the Haunted Mansion ride, courtesy of my Disneyland Annual Passport. Yeah, I’ve got one. Don’t judge me.

Much of the lyrics of the song were taken from an actual application to join the Moose Lodge which I was given after some friends of mine got married at one. They still make you certify that you’re not a Communist. I’m surprised they don’t also make you denounce the Whig Party while they’re at it.

In any case, here it is. For free. Just cuz I want to smear it on the fabric of the world.

If you like it, download and pass it on. If not, I believe you can show yourself out.

I will gladly sing the baritone section for very little pay just so I can tour with you guys. Drop me a line!

Hilarious and musically skilled as always. I was so happy to see you guys have the album on iTunes as I promptly bought it

Love the sound of moose braying at the start. Very classy. I’m using that sound whenever I toss one into the wife from now on.

This came up on Shuffle on my iPod on my way home from work today! :) It’s actually one of my favorite songs on H&G. Yeah, that’s right, I shortened the album name. Holy crap, I’m a geek. :)

Okay, hilarious. I bought the album on iTunes ages ago, but I always loved this song for the very reason that it reminded me of the Haunted Mansion. No judgment, darlin’, if I were living within a 3 hour drive of Disneyland, I’d totally be rocking the annual passport. Hell, I go every year for my birthday, and you can bet I make them give me one of those HAPPY BIRTHDAY buttons.

Hmmmm. This one made me dig out my copy of Horses and grasses and listen again. You should post your Jimmy Kimmel performance of American Dinosaur. That one still hurts my wee wee!
