MP3s on this site are for sampling purposes only. If you represent an artist featured on The Pantsing and would like a file removed tell us and we'll remove it immediately.

I like at least two of Christina Aguilera's songs. She is very talented.

I can sing, but am affraid to.

I agree with S'teve that rock music is above identity politics.

This sounds like an opportunity for an all female fronted pantsing playlist! (more to come)

Like most of you, I check my website statistics only slightly less often than I google my name, and I do that only slightly less often than I check my email.

So I thought I'd let you in on some of the amazing google searches that brought people to the Pants Pants Pants website:

• we love plastic pants
• pantsing pictures
• rock and roll pants
• www.pants off dance off (two people searched for this)
• a tour of the "full house" set
• but grunge pants
• can a full break ruin pants
• create your gangsta pants
• filthy disgusting picture of an old naked lady
• lip service pants gold
• magical duo band site

The list of amazingness goes on and on .. .

Oh, and here are the bands/people who search from themselves in an effort to expose themselves to cutting-edge electronic rock. "phantom float", "blue skies for black hearts", "phiona carousel" and our new band god-mother "drea tumwater"

I just came upon these big band versions of Bjork Classics. Not sure they're Pansting worthy, because the soloing might be a bit tiresome for some. But. . .

original post

The first openers were a band called Pants Pants Pants. They had a fun electro indie rock thing going. At one point their drummer came out from behind the drums and just started dancing crazy.

-Adrian is Rad

When my housemates proposed that I join them for a trip into the city to see a band called Pants, Pants, Pants, my only expectations of the evening were that I would see a bit of the city and enjoy some liquid refreshment. It is fair to say that my expectations were exceeded.

Let me tell you about this band. They have three people: a female lead singer, a guy on bass, and another guy on drums. They all dress in the color gold, apparently at every show. When the music started, my excitement was increased: I generally assign a higher point value to bands fronted by women. The first song was just funky, with a little bit of a hard edge, and Lauren Lauren’s vocals were smooth and kind of jazzy.

At some point during the first number, a man in a tuxedo and a top hat—whose name, I would learn later, is Brian the Aristocrat—took a seat onstage in a giant inflatable leopard-print armchair. For the rest of the song, he just sat there sipping a Heineken. Also, during this song, Lauren started playing some instrument that is like a miniature keyboard with a tube that you blow into. My curiosity was definitely piqued.

So when, in the next song, (”Squeeze It”), a man wearing a giant sea otter puppet as a mask climbed on stage, I will say that I was at that point I was in the thrall of the events unfolding before me. The otter man and the aristrocrat proceeded to play Jenga as the drummer began tinkering with a laptop and a keyboard, softly reciting risque lyrics involving the cast of Full House:

I squeezed it like John Stamos because he was on TV /
He squeezed with Kimmy Gibbler (just between you and me) /

We squeezed like Danny Tanner, of this there is no doubt /
We squeezed with Uncle Joey, but he said ‘cut-it-out.’

Naturally, the requisite hand gestures were made during that last line. This is San Francisco, after all. This show is deeply ingrained in the city’s cultural lexicon.

The band is on hiatus now for a few months whilst the drummer, who goes by the name SysOp, marries one of the back-up singers (well, she just kind of jumped on stage and started singing) with the unlikely name of Rock n’ Roll Christmas Store. But rest assured I will seek them out again at the appropriate hour.

Until then, we can all entertain ourselves by visiting their website, and viewing their hilarious music video, which is a shot-for-shot remake of the opening sequence from Full House. Actually, both sequences (they changed it in the later seasons to include fan-fave Kimmy Gibbler in the opening). You can also listen to “Squeeze It” on the site, and make your own music with their nifty interface.
