Particularly when I'm trying to encourage myself, if I get unnerved or scared, I always refer to myself as Willie.
Okay, that is categorically too much information.
No one needs to know that fact, but now you do.
I know you want to turn back time, but it's too late.
And now it's time again for our feature, a highly popular feature, I'm With The Band, where listeners send in the name of their teenage band and the lyrics to their signature song.
And this week there's a contribution from Scott Brown.
in Dundee, Scotland.
And he says, hello there.
My submission for I'm With The Band, I used to play in a rock band called Writers I've Known.
The name was taken from a line in J.D.
Salinger's Franny and Zooey, which I read not long after the band formed.
The phrase was capitalized in the sentence for emphasis, and I knew immediately that I had to insist to my bandmates that we use it.
It was often misheard by promoters and venues back when gigs were arranged over the phone, as we were listed under names such as Waiters I've Known.
and Razor's Unknown.
Lyrics of one of our signature songs, Scott says, I can't recall the entire song, or rather my brain refuses to, but I came up with this line from a song called Cartwheels of Enthusiasm.
And the line is, your internal clock just melted like a Salvador Dali cliche at an art student party.

This was repeated several times over an extended build-up of palm-muted guitar chords.
Wow, that sounds good.
