Blue Banana Bread!

This is kinda funny, just the other day I was doing a bar gig, and we played our last song and started packing up. The crowd wanted one more song, so we played a song from our first set none of them had heard. Then they still weren't satisfied, so we proceeded to play "John the Fisherman" by...
