He also had the "no night stand" idea as well. From there, Jason and Carrie Bruno (who's singing) blew it up into this would-be dance club hit.

The album, to be released later in the year, is called "When I Was Your Age" and features songs that take a look back at when we were kids. This song is about a kid whose day turns out okay as long as everything happens according to plan.

The album is called "Trebuchet" and is contained here in its entirety! Besides the fact that Trebuchet is yet another awesome addition to George's fine discography, it also contains George's own version of his song 'When I Was Your Age,' the song that we collaborated on and recorded with him last year for our album of the same name, due to be released later this year. Trebuchet -- like all of George's albums -- is available at CD Baby and The iTunes. George Hrab's Trebuchet features Phil Plait, Peter Gregson, Slau, and The Skeptical Shoe Horns. 1.

We love working with other musicians and with this album we were lucky enough to get the chance to work with the great George Hrab (indie musician, podcaster, writer, and all around uber-talent). We+AJI-ve been meaning to work together since interviewing him for our book, The Indie Band Survival Guide and The DIY Music Manual. And this album seemed the perfect chance, so we called him up. While describing the concept of the album to George on the phone, he commented on how there+AJI-s a ton of stuff kids have these days that we didn+AJI-t have growing up. And, +AJM-When I Was Your Age+AJQ- was born. We liked this song so much we decided that the whole album's concept should be a look back at when we were kids.

This song's a stern warning that being the front man of a band is not what it's cracked up to be. Consider yourself warned.

Nastier words could never be said.
