Note From Sandy
Hey fellow 2Ge+herites!
As many of you know, the last episode of 2Ge+her: The Series was not aired last night. (Instead, MTV re-aired Behind The Awesomeness...which was 2Ge+her, at least.) ::sigh:: I don't know whether to be frustrated at MTV for dragging out this difficult good-bye or excited that there's still a new episode. Whatever the case, I'm trying not to rat on MTV too much. I believe that the cancellation was partially due to the loss of Michael and partially due to low ratings (which, had they moved 2Ge+her away from 10:30pm on a school night, may have been better, but oh well). Let's just be thankful that the actors who play 2Ge+her aren't giving up on their acting careers!
Once more, I have a few bonus things to add up here before you continue:
1. The National Grief Hotline is 1-800-826-3632 (free call). Please get help if you're having problems dealing with the death of Michael Cuccione. I care about you.
2. I've always wanted to make some 2Ge+her system sounds for my computer but just recently got the microphone. Now I need your help. What do you want your computer to say when you turn it off/on, get e-mail/IMs, or have an error message? E-mail me (subj: System Sound Suggestion) to nominate 2Ge+her system sounds, and I'll record a few!
3. Do you live in Canada? E-mail me (subj: I'm From Canada).
4. "Are 2Ge+her still going to be a band, sell CDs, and go on tour?" ::sigh:: I wish I could answer this question for you. Chances are that the answer is "no" (according to almost everybody), although I hate to say that too soon, and I'd always like to have hope of a reunion. The catch is that I don't think they'd tour/perform without Michael. I dunno...could be wrong. As far as CDs go, there's a rumor flying that Michael recorded a few songs before his death and that the guys of 2Ge+her will add their voices and make another CD...but, again, I don't know who started this rumour or how much validity it actually carries. I guess time will tell.
5. "Will you continue 2Ge+her 2day even after the series is over?" Are you kidding? I *love* making the newsletter! I just hope that you guys will still want me after that! I'm worried about lots of members dropping out in the upcoming weeks, but I do plan on continuing the newsletter to keep you all updated on 2Ge+her, on the individual projects of Evan, Kevin, Alex, and Noah, and on Project Michael, which should continue long after the series has expired. After all, despite the cancellation of the series, the actors are great and the memories remain.

Quote/Fun Fact
Question: Mickey Parke vs. New Kid Donnie Wahlberg?
Alex Solowitz: Well, Mickey Parke got his ass kicked by a 14-year-old girl, but I still think I’d -- I mean he’d -- be able to kick the shit out of Donnie Wahlberg...and his punk brother Marky Mark, too...

Lyrics
1. 5Ge+her
from "2Ge+her Again"
(Larry Troutman, Roger Troutman, Brian Gunn, Mark Gunn, Sherwin Charles, Travis Lane, Ivan Norwood, James Carter)
MECHANICAL VOICE:
It's 2Ge+her, oh...
Oh-oh...
It's 2Ge+her, oh...
QT:
Number 2-G-E-T-H-E-R...
We're the CD you play in your car.
CHAD:
Drive to try to blow that star.
Tiger Woods, we twelve strokes under par!
MICKEY:
So tell me how far you can get
As a superstar side show. That ain't it.
Don't throw no fit. Just ride on the energy.
It's 2Ge+her from now into infinity.
CHORUS (ALL with Mickey improvising):
We are 5 2Ge+her.
We do our thing, baby, and we sing.
We are 5 2Ge+her.
We do our thang, baby, and we sing.
DOUG:
See all the girls with their hands in the air?
You can tell by their screams this ain't Lilith Fair.
JERRY:
They're in our world now -- 2G's ragged lair --
And we'll take off our shirts if you double-dog-dare.
QT:
Splittin' my pants as I sit in the chair...
Revenge of the Nerds, funny Hollywood Squares...
DOUG:
Tripppin', skippin', do my little hooch...
Choo-choo's comin' through fast on the hoochie...
CHORUS
MECHANICAL VOICE:
5 squared
5 squared
5 squared is 2
MICKEY:
Yeah, yeah...
Rub a dub dub, sweet love in a tub...
We're here to a hug, kiss, and give ya back rubs.
Had to scratch our way up from down in the mud.
We weren't discovered in no Mickey Mouse Club.
CHAD:
Playin' our job.
Lookin' for a deal.
We're tootin' for real
With five on the beat.
JERRY:
Five on the court, championship...
Just can't eat one of these potato chips.
MICKEY:
This is the flava hits, as it rubs your hips,
Through the eye of the need that we need no player-hatin' people.
Sequel, equal to none...
2Ge+her, masterpiece, job done...
CHAD:
If there's gonna be five of us, why not call us 5Ge+her?
CHORUS (2X) (with Mickey improvising)
JERRY:
This is a new math, fool,
ALL:
Where 2-to-the-G breaks all the rules!
MICKEY:
And one times five is two,
And that's five times the noise comin' back at you.
QT:
This is a new math, fool,
ALL:
Where 2-to-the-G breaks all the rules!
JERRY:
And one times five is two,
And that's five times the noise comin' back at you.
CHORUS (3X)
IN THE FUTURE...
