History of Yield to Pedestrians


It all started out in the kiddy years. Jonathan Lenny and Brian lived right next store to each other. Throughout the years they remained friends. Finally, Jonathan and Lenny couldn't stand Brians oddness, so they moved a couple streets away. Their good friend, and still a good friend, Sara moved too.

Now it was about 5th or sixth grade for Brian. He met Alans brother, Andrew. They became good friends along with Sebastion, and Joey. They all noticed they shared the same interest in music. So they decided to make a little video or soemthing. The video included jonathan, Lenny, Brian, Alan, Andrew, Joey, and Sebastion. We all were doing the same things as our favorite bands were doing in their music videos. We thought it was pretty cool.

That all ended when Alan refused to pretend to be Method Man in the song,"N 2gether now". Jon and Lenny stood up for him, and everyone else left. We dont know what happened to Brian tought. But it left Alan, Jonathan and Lenny with no band. So they decided to make a three person band called,"The Killer Munkiez". OHH YEA! Unfortunaltey they broke up, but remained friends.

Months passed and everyone except for Alan Jon and Lenny decided to start a band,Laser X 3000. They later asked Jon and Lenny to join the band cause they needed them for their basement and drum set. Alan didn't know why they joined because everyone was making fun of Jon and Lenny behind their backs. The new band included Andrew, Jonathan, Lenny, Sebastion, and Joey. Alan and Brian were left out. Well Brian was the "manager" and of course Alan made the website.

Lx3k lasted for a long time, until everyone reliazed that it wasn't a band just a group of friends making beleive. So the whole group stopped with the band thing for a while

LAter in their lives, when Alan was in 7th grade. He attended St. Joes Catholic School, where jon and lenny went their whole lives. If it werent for this school, their would be no band.

Alan and good friend Alex started a little band with just a bass and guitar. They practiced hardly ever in a little room. It was better than Lx3k. They then relized that they cant be a band without a drummer. We asked everyone. Alan insisted that they asked Jonathan, but Alex didnt get along with jon or Lenny to much. Alan finaly got Alex to say yes, and JOnathan was now in the band. They then asked Lenny to be Rythm guitar. Then they asked Brian. Jon, Lenny and Brian forced Alan to kick out Alex by saying that they were now a ska band with 15 members and teo drmmers. Alex didnt like the idea, so he quit.

So that left Jon,Len, Alan, and Brian in the band. ONe practice Brian asked everyone is a friend DAnny could coem and sing with us. We said ok.

Danny later quit right before our first gig, a talent show. We later asked Alan's brother to sing with us, but he quit because we didnt get along. So that left Alan, Jon, Lenny, and Brian in Yield to Pedestrians. The best Punk band this side of Walligton
