unfortunately it was a question mark.

' Page 427, I Never Promised You A Rock Band by I.M. PeenedCopyright 1998 Detroit Free Press (Quoted by permission)'!..One gray and dreary December afternoon in 1964 Joe Triplet, Tom Guernsey, Mike Henley, Richard Solo, and Jim Daniels sat in a Maryland recording studio and listened with smug satisfaction to the playback of the surf instrumental Tom had just written. It was their first time in a recording studio, and their uncertainty had been transparently and awkwardly manifest at the beginning of the session. But now, five hours and one finished instrumental track later, the boys felt like old studio pros. 'Man, that sound's great' said veteran engineer Ed Green, 'What's it called?' What indeed, Tom thought to himself, and silently began to mull over the list of possible titles he had prepared before the session, when he was abruptly, and rudely, interrupted by a loud, grating voice. 'Hey!!' Tom turned towards the sound of the voice. As usual, it was perennial hanger-on, self-appointed arbiter of cool, and general all around pain in the ass 'butt-in-ski' Jack Cheeseburo. 'Call it DON'T CALL ME FLYFACE!!' Jack continued as he moved closer and poked his index finger on Tom's chest in time with the cadence of his words. Drop dead you zero, Tom thought to himself but only said, 'Shit, I dunno!what do you guys think?' 'Son, its KEY said Joe. 'Suffer!' A smirking Mike Henley chimed in, sensing correctly, much to his own private amusement and satisfaction, that Jack's suggestion would carry the day, actually any day, over Tom's objections. And so the song was named and shortly thereafter released on the now defunct RUJAC RECORDS label. And thus began the convoluted, secretive, incestuous, sordid, and frankly boring forty-plus-year saga of Washington D.C.'s most inscrutable and yet enduring rock band!.. The Reekers!....'
