My ffiend who owns the local indi rcord shop whould always be asked whad
a band sounds like and he'd always reply the same "Well ... they're
kindof a cross between X and Y" - a bunch of us would always hang out
there over lunch hour and it got so everytime he said this we would
chime in with our own absurd copies of his phrase 'till he got angry and
yelled at us. He refuses to do it anymore even if you beg.
I was trying to think of a funny example - but the cross between almost
any two bands seems to give an interesting rather than funny result.
They were only funny because they didn't describe the band being
discussed at all.
"Mudhoney is a like a cross between The Archies and Beethoven" - see!
funny!
