INTRO:
Lets talk about Jim and Steve
There's a lot to be said about Jim and Steve. They both played instruments, both claimed to be smarter than the other, both wore baseball caps, both preferred Ultra-Bright toothpaste (Jim liked the kind with glitter) and both agreed Google.com held all the answers to the universe. Okay, kidding on the last one, but you get the picture.
Since the beginning, Jim and Steve were friends, there was no doubt about that. The very first thing Steve said once he introduced himself was, "Hey, your shirt is on backwards." After that, they clicked and the rest was history. Well not really. Unlike most friends who avoid
arguments and problems and anything that looks dangerous, they grabbed every opportunity they could. Especially the arguing opportunities, they'd bring up old arguments if necessary in order to beat the living daylights out of the other. They even made a game out of arguing, which after that, everyone hid once they decided to argue for points (Steve claimed Jim always cheated.)
As for looking for problems and things that looked dangerous, don't even think for a second that these guys were some sort of Indiana Jones. Translated, looking for danger meant doing anything stupid. Literally. I mean, how smart does it sound to get inside a fridge then have
it pushed down a hill attached to several skateboards? That was one of their earliest adventures, which got Steve sent to the hospital and Jim home with a twisted ankle. But that didn't stop them, in fact, it rather encouraged them. As they got older, their experiments weren't as crazy but crazy enough to scare the crap out of everyone they encountered.
Years went on, both joined a band, then went their separate ways. One morning, Steve called Jim up, telling him he had found a possible gig for them. Some guy named Al. "You mean that creepy dude with the accordion? That guy gives me nightmares!" So for the next couple of days, Steve tried in vain to persuade Jim to audition til finally he held Jim at gun point (it wasn't loaded but heck, when a gun's pressed against your head, who cares if it's loaded or not?).
After meeting Al, it was a real thrill for Jim and Steve. Here was a guy who was just crazy as they were and had an equally crazy drummer (they soon found out his name was Bermuda). Later on they were even happier to welcome a piano player called Ruben. So life was really awesome for them, but even though they were busy with tours, albums, and fans, that didn't mean Jim and Steve didn't stop having their crazy adventures. They had even more adventures than usual. In fact, adventures were never far....
This is cute. I liked it.
