hahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha it was too easy.

My 18 year old bro pretends that he hates pearl jam just because I like them, but he loves Neil Young. He has been telling me how bad he thinks they suck for like two years. Although, he does generally like good music. He just says he hates Pearl Jam to piss me off, so I decided to trick him. When I came home to my parents house like a month ago I told him about this "new" band I liked. I told him the lead singer was Neil Young's brother and the name of the band was Bruce Young Band. He thought it was awesome, so I upload benneroyal hall on to his computer and changed the itunes name to Bruce Young Band and deleted the artwork. hahahahahahhaahahhahaha this was like a month ago and now he listens to it all the time. He was telling me how he loves immortality. I still haven't told him and I don't think I am going to any time soon....sucker.

    If he generally listens to good music, chances are, some of his friends like PJ. He's gonna look like such an ass when he pops on the new Bruce Young Band for his friends!!!!

    Awesome! but seriously...he doesn't recognize the songs as PJ's. How can you hate something without even knowing the material?

    That's where I thought this was going when I started reading...he really must not be a fan if he can't tell that it's Ed singing. Great job! Can't wait to hear about his reaction when he finally finds out!
