[ "Abrupt Edge" ]
1: Abrupt Edge is a band commonly known for overplayed solo's, terrible vocals, songs with no point, and most if not all band members are douche bags. You will commonly see the basist of the group dating girls still in High School, buying them expensive rings, gettings engaged and then calling the whole thing off. He tends to screw eveyone he knows but swears he is giving them the best end of the deal. He is a self proclaimed saint and master of all things known to man. Everyone else in this band goes on with their failing musical career and will more that likely end up working in a garage, bagging groceries, dropping out of college, if they even go, or driving a school bus full of high school kids to find their future wife.
* e.g., ... Ted: Did you go to the concert last night? It left my ears bleeding.
Gary: I know what you mean, it was just like an Abrupt Edge concert. I tried leaving but I was blocked in by eleventeen year old girls screaming "Oh My Fuck he's hot". I think I saw my life flash before my eyes.
