Overbored

Overbored was a bayrock band that existed from 1999 to 2003, consisting of Andrew Strickland, Liam Peacock, Phil Howell, Daniel Clarke and Aiden Dunne. The band began when Strickland and Clarke joined the Shoulderblades, and the group decided that they should junk all evidence that they had been a band prior to this point, and start anew. The group has released one album, Spaghetti Sauce Sandwich, and failed to release a second one, Illegal to be Human.
== The beginning ==
Several months after Overbored's formation, they played their first show as a five piece, a talent show at St. Joseph's Intermediate in Carbonear. In the months that followed, they devoted themselves to recording an album of songs mostly written by Liam, learning to play every Nirvana and Blink 182 song ever, and entering a talent show at S.W. Moore's Stadium in Harbour Grace, where their obnoxious teenage antics got on everyone's nerves. In early 2000, they released Spaghetti Sauce Sandwich, an eight-song work of genius that for some reason didn't get them signed to a major record deal. They also began playing any birthday party that the Jenkins family needed them to.
== The middle ==
After finishing with Spaghetti Sauce Sandwich, the band set out to get together a new group of original songs written in a more collaborative manner. Somewhere between this and playing every house party in Carbonear between 2000 and 2002, they got the stupid idea that Phil shouldn't be in the band, and foolishly activated The Curse of the Commie Ninjas. After playing their first proper bayrock show at the Curling Club in Harbour Grace, they caught the attention of Frodis Caper frontman John Sullivan, who agreed to produce an album for them. Poor guy didn't know what he was getting into.
== The end ==
What with this and that and these and those, whatever it may be, the attempted recording sessions for Illegal to be Human, and all the sandbaggery which they entailed, left everyone a little disgruntled. So Liam locked himself in a room and pumped out solo albums, while the rest of them started A Darker Shade of Black. With Liam's departure for Mount Allison University impending, Overbored reunited for one more show, and never played again.
