Earth, 3010. The monkeys are battling the human race using highly advanced ray guns. All of humanity rests in the hands of one unheard of, unnamed band. They begin the battle with fierce ray gun attacks, and with the blink of an eye, they took out 182 monkeys at once. And thus a name was conceived.

Wow...I am not even going to try and compete with some of these people...lets just say that they were once piles of pudding, someone threw them in the trash, and then the decomposition created such a massive heatwave that the bags melted, got mixed into some nasty radioactive waste in the garbage dump and caused the band to form...and along with the band forming, where were some monkey formed too...and they found ray guns :).

Simple-the old loser kid rabbit ate a bad carrot. The resulting dead smile logo is how he went out-in style. The 6 arrows are an homage to the 6 years with Scott as the drummer. The pink came about because it's a totally manly color. add into pot, add chemical X and viola

There are sectors within the American government that even the top chiefs do not know about. This is the story of one of them and how they erase the memory of those unfortunate enough to come in contact with them.
Several years ago there was a non-public function for which entertainment was needed. Some of "Them" (the powers in charge) solicited auditions of a few select musicians. After auditioning, the band members were kept in a secure room so as not to leak to the public about the meeting of this highly secret organization. Meanwhile, a new group was being interviewed down the hall from the secure room. This new group of three members was curious about what was going on and who these dudes were who were asking all the questions. One of them decided he needed to use the restroom and was escorted down the hall by a security officer (in a black suit and earbuds). Upon opening the stall door, he saw a not-to-be-named famous entertainer just coming out. He aimed his camera and before he could listen to the "NOs" being shouted at him, he clicked the shutter. Checking the picture results with his fellow band members, he looked in amazement at the picture. "What the heck, hey didn't you tell him not to Blink 182 times?! He looks like a cross-eyed monkey who's been shot by a ray gun! And get a load of that hair." Well, they knew they would never get a chance to speak to this dude again, let alone get a "real" picture of him, so they decided that even though they never got the gig, they avoided being locked up in the secure room (they were asked to leave for being "rowdy" don't you know), and now they had a unique logo to put on their shirts. Only they would ever know the secret of having their musical hero on their shirts, but everyone else would dig the coss-eyed monkey!
