Ahem...as official Hootie historian I must clarify this. There is no one in the band actually named Hootie. The lead singer is Darius Rucker, not hootie as many call him. Subsequently, the band members are not the "blowfish" either. Hootie and the Blowfish derived from two roommates of the guys as they were attending the University of South Carolina and playing local bars and frat parties before they hit it big. Hootie was a guy with big eyes and blowfish was a guy that had big cheeks. The band knew of another band in town called Tootie and the Jones and they liked the combination of Hootie and the Blowfish so there you go.

Scoff if you want people but my South Carolina peeps sold 14 million copies of that debut album of theirs. Hootie rules!
All good things they say never last...

I love the Death Cab For Cutie name ~ sounds quite sinister and underground ~ kind of cryptic ~ was just wondering today the source of it.

EXACTLY ~ what would entice one to step inside? And, what will happen to Cutie on the trip to ~~~~~? Just conjures up the darkside for me in a weird kind of way.
