It's actually quite a funny story. Back in the Napster days I used to go around messaging anybody who had Finger Eleven or Incubus on their
computer to tell them to check out the livid. I came across this girl who said she already knew the livid and that she went to school with them, and
already had all of their songs on her computer. Turns out the girl is actually from California, so there was no way that she was talking about the
right band. I told her that there was no way that she knew the guys in the band, cuz I was in the band. She insisted I was wrong, so I asked her to
list off the songs she had. Every song she named was one of ours, at the exception of one song. It was called Exit. I decided to download this
song. Turns out, that song was actually written by the guys she knew from her high school. However it was fucking terrible. I broke the news to
her, telling her that all the other songs were ours, not her friends'. The next song I wrote I ended up calling egzit as a joke. I just
spelled it differently to make sure it never got confused with that other bands' song.

I was just checking out the "the Livid" stuff on http://www.newmusiccanada.com and found another band called
"Livid" which is from Winnipeg and has a song called "Exit".

I say we have a thread dedicated to "Storytime with TheLivid"...the guys can drop by and post some stories...
If not, we'll just all sit and listen to Bowes, I'm sure he's full of 'stories' about the band as well..haha.
you won't let me down...

good idea, but im a little sceptical as to how often we will actually get stories, cause we all know how buisy they all are.
