Friends of P
by David Dineen-Porter

"I was watching MTV the other day, and a song by the Rentals came on. I'm not
totally sure, but it looks like the lead singer is no other than Matt Sharp
from Weezer (did they split up?), when I recorded it on tape, I realized the
drummer is Patrick Wilson, the drummer for Weezer, no clue who the other
two guys are, but I'm pretty sure they're not Rivers Cuomo and Bryan Bell."

I'd like to thank Ben for getting the TAB completly wrong, and allowing me to
fix it.  BTW, weezer did not split up, they are still playing to gether, Matt
Sharp is in both bands, as is Pat Wilson, the new Weezer CD should be out by
the summer of 1996.

"Anyway, I thought I'd just TAB it out to the best I can."
