Thanks, Brisa! 

**********Allow me to introduce a new series titled: "In the Early Days of Keane"

circa 1999-2000 ------To make ends meet, Tim had to resort to giving drunk college students piggyback rides back to their dorms...

Tim: OK..here we are... that will be 15 cents. Feel free to tip me if you like.

Drunk student: Are you crazy? That was the worst piggyback ride of my life. And besides...I have no more cash on me.

Tim:

-------continued...."In the Early Days of Keane" documentary

circa 1999-2000 Backstage footage of Tom when he worked nights at a club.

Reporter: What kind of club was it?

Richard: Did you see "Magic Mike"?

Tom:

Reporter: What was your stage name?

Tom:

Richard *uncontrollable laughter*: TOM…………….BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!

*****NOTE: Tom is demonstrating his signature move: "the cross pants-snatch"!

-------------------- 

Tom voice *fighting back the tears*: And when we finally started to get invited to festivals, we had to search for food wherever we could.

Jesse: Yes! Victory! That looks like a piece of tuna sandwich!

Richard *voice cracking with sadness*: Gum was considered a luxury items in those days

  Tom: Here we go. It's only got a few bugs on it, but it's still pretty juicy. Tim, it's your turn to chew it first, then, on to you, Richard.

Please allow me one more post...I haven't been on in such a long time.

 More from the documentary....a reality tv crew follows the boys on tour.

circa 2002-2003 The guys are helping Tom set up a profile on a dating website.

Tom: It's so hard to find love on the road…that true somebody you want to spend every waking moment with..

Reporter: For sure…it must be even more difficult when you’re in a rock band.

Tom: Do you think I made the right decision to include my past as an exotic dancer?

Jesse: Of course! That’s guaranteed to get you an extra 30% more views. OK…it seems like I’ve entered everything on your list. Your profile is complete.

Tom: Don’t forget to indicate “MUST LOVE GOLFING!”

Jesse: It’s there. Now we need a fresh and sexy photo for your profile pic….Richard, help us out.

Tim: Don’t forget to put his phone number.

Tom: And put a back up number in case I’m unavailable.

Tim: What’s wrong with having the girls leave a voice mail? It’s better that way. If they sound ugly or obese, you can just delete their message and move on to the next one.

Tom: No…I want them to reach a live person. Put my grandmother’s number as back up. My nan loves to sit by the phone.

Richard: And this, ladies and gentlemen is why Tom is still single.

Having fulfilled his mission on planet Earth, Tom was called back to his home planet (Angelicvox) and abducted by a spaceship mid-performance.

Thanks, guys! It's good to be back.

When he first joined the band, Jessed lacked the level of discipline the other guys had..

*** Five minutes into rehearsal... 

Tom: OK. Let's take it from the top.

Jesse: My pizza is on its way. I'm going to sit down until it arrives. My stomach won't stop grumbling. 

Dear H_F, I am lucky enough to have become friends in real life with a few of these excellent Keanies you see here below, excellent and hilarious individuals all (you know who you are)... But it was the rumo(u)r that *you*, indeed the expert, have returned to km.com where you belong, that has brought me back for a visit to the forum in over a year.

Huzzah!!

Maayani :)

I have moved my mad caption skillz (or maybe I'm just mad) over to Tumblr:

@Maayani....I am humbled. Happy to brighten up your day! 

Journalist: And before we let you go, can you each reveal something about the other that your fans would be shocked to learn.

Tom: Richard is currently on the last book of the 50 Shades series.

Richard: Really?!?!  

*laugh*

Such highbrow literature, Mr. Hughes.

Tom *between clenched teeth*: Jesse, how many times have we told you that you can quit your side job as a dogwalker. For goodness sake, man! Aren't you paid enough as part of a top rock band?

Richard *thinking*: I don't know him. Let me keep a few paces behind.

Tom: You are part of an alist rock band. Please conduct yourself as such.

Man with camera: Isn't that Keane ?!?

Woman: No way. Those guys look like bad impersonators.

Jesse: But I really like my part-time job. Now if you'll excuse me it's lullaby time for Mr. Hairy here.

Tim *thinking*: It's official. I am completely and utterly mortified.

I hate to dominate this thread so much, but....where is everybody? I miss the old board when a caption thread would last 1 - 3 months max! This one is still going since before my hiatus. ***Wipes a tear ***

Nervous Sexy woman *rambling on because she is starstruck*: You guys are my favorite band. I love you guys so freakin much. I got a bunch of tattoos of all your album artwork all over my *removes article of clothing but ends popping more buttons than intended*

Richard: SWEET MOTHER! Wooooooooooooooo!

Tim: Those are impressive.

Nervous Sexy woman: You like the various artwork?

Tim: Yeah, those too.

Tom: My eyes are closed. What am I missing?!?

Jesse: I feel compelled to remind you fine gentlemen that we are all HAPPILY married. 

 I've moved over to Tumblr.

It's long, but it's a song on Broadway... buh buh buh Broadway... perhaps from the musical "Tommy Got His Gun"

 OMG, Di, that is hilarious. Imagine those two bickering like that!

H_F, you have indeed been missed. If you're back, perhaps I need to nose around here more often, too!
