Old Man Gloom drummer Santos Montano usually takes advantage of his free reign on the band’s official Facebook and his latest post is quite a doozy. In it he dreams up a number of band related tacos with some humorous results.
“I have to admit, i’m really fascinated by all these band themed food places. Kuma’s Corner with their metal burgers, Mark Trombino’s Donut Friend with the punk named treats, Sizzle Pie, who even once had an Old Man Gloom pizza. To be fair it sounded super gross, but hey, maybe thats what we inspire.
Has anyone done tacos yet? I mean, i’m in a cool band, mexican, and need some fast cash. Anyone want to back my new venture in NYC?We’ll call it….Gloomalicious? Gloomos? Santos? I don’t know. We’ll put the name on the back burner.
Here’s some menu items i’m tossing around:The Isis
a really overly long 2 foot in diameter tortilla, with a teaspoon of bland filling right in the middle.The Botch
A complicated mess of shit that shouldn’t work like sauerkraut, maple syrup, old watch batteries, and warm water that somehow is perfect and delicious.The Converge
A limited edition multicolor screen print of a beautiful, yet frantic image of a timeless taco. Taco not included.The Sumac
A bland vegan pita pocket stuffed with un-cooked macaroni, dusted with Sumac.The Danzig
A kitty litter rimmed bowl of french onion soup with a wendy’s chicken fillet floating on top.The Old Man Gloom
A message will arrive in your inbox with a lengthy wordy snarky description of some food i think you’d like, though mostly i’ll just talk about myself. We’ll both leave unsatisfied.The Cave In Prix Fix dinner
A 5 course tasting menu that starts very exciting, but then gets a little dull in the middle, then the last course never comes. You’ll surely tell the server you liked the earlier courses better.The HydraHead
10% of this burrito is unbelievably incredible, the other 90% is just a confusing mess of ingredients that sound made up.The Sleep
You know, it’s the taco people who don’t eat taco’s say they are into, but they really just like shirts with taco’s on them. Really it’s just a soda cup filled with old bong water.The “local opener”
Order any “band” on our menu and we’ll just do it a little crappier.The Neurosis
A delicious blend of medieval meat’s and grains wrapped in a Oakland Raiders branded leather pouch.The Zozobra
3 taco’s brought out in succession, each tasting more of betrayal than the last.The Full of Hell
I don’t know, it’s full of hell? I don’t know what they sound like, so I can’t really workshop this one. TBD.Please add more menu items below. I’ll even be adding some that didn’t make the cut….”
