about
Flat 29 are Dan, Rich, and Charlie. But we weren't always Flat 29, we used to be just three separate dudes going about our daily business. Suddenly one day we had a contrived meeting in the form of a song. This IS that song, chronicling how we met and subsequently became menfriends (friends who are men)
lyrics
Today I must make it my mission to find one or more friends!
I’ve got a plan, here comes Dan, he’s a man.
Excuse me Dan, would you like to be my friend,
I can’t help noticing we’re both men.
I’ve got a spare ticket to a Rock n’ Roll show,
Would you like to go?
Hmm, let me have a think; that sounds great!
I’ve just made a quick assessment of your character traits
You have a beard,
And you’re wearing a tie,
There’s really no reason why we can’t be
Menfriends… We could be Menfriends.
Excuse me Gents, you look like you’re having fun!
My name’s Charlie, and this is my chum. Hi!
We were just having a stimulating chat,
I want to get in on that.
You see I’ve got these tickets to a Rock n’ Roll show,
Hmm, that’s funny ‘cause we were gonna go.
You Guys sound like you have a great rapport,
Do you have room for one more? Sure!
Menfriends… We could be Menfriends
I’ve heard that band plays a really cracking set,
They suspend things from the ceiling and they come in on a jet
Did you pick up their latest CD?
Nowadays I only buy MP3’s
Well this is working out great I think, let’s go to a bar and have too much to drink
We’ll talk about ladies and have a little fight and it will be a manly night,
Now that we’re Menfriends
‘Cause we friends are the best of friends
1 friend, 2 friend, 3 menfriends
Friends who are friends to the bitter end
Just 3 friends who are friends
Because we’re going to have the manliest times in the manliest places
See the manliest faces, that’s probably our faces.
Sitting at the bar wearing men’s cologne,
We’ll be smelling like pure testosterone
I’m having Dr Pepper ‘cause I’ve gotta drive home,
And I’m showing Rich my new ringtone.
I’m spending all my money on the quiz machine,
We’re 3 menfriends and we’re living the dream!
We’re not just menfriends, oh no
We’re bloody good menfriends, oh yeah, yeah
‘Cause I’m a friend to you, and you’re a friend to me
You’re my friend and so is he
Yesterday we didn’t know each other,
But now we’re like friendly brothers.

Awesome track! I also love the "tribute" at the end to that old D&D audio, genius! This is going to be the opener for the next session for my group.

Chicken and Waffles
by TV's Kylesupported by 5 fans who also own “Menfriends”
Kyle has a gift for creating earworms—catchy tunes that you just cannot get out of your head until they've achieved their purpose. (Which is? That would be telling...) At the moment I'm particularly fond of "I Don't Know Why There's a Bug in Here," which I predict within five years will dominate campfires and school buses.

by the great Luke Skisupported by 5 fans who also own “Menfriends”
Technically my favorite track is "You Don't Know Jack (Plan B)", because it's just a great reimagining (Some Jerk with a Camera is now officially a reimagineer). But a lot of the album is good, and the "Luke Ski Phase 2" stuff is also good, but different.
