Answer:
"After practice when we used to rehearse at Dave's( the drummer ) house, I was carrying both of my guitars up the narrow steep basement stairs and knocked over a fire extinguisher that was missing it's pin. It fell to the bottom of the stairs and went off on the rest of the band, who were at the bottom of the stairs. I almost pissed myself as we laughed so hard and choked on the powder that enveloped the entire basement."

Question:
"How did 'Wyzr Tyme' get it's name?"

Answer:
"Our society disregards are elders who actually are very knowledgable and full of info. In every other part of the world, elders are greatly respected. Our country shits on them. They have been down all the roads and lived and learned. As we progress in life, we learn from our paths that we take, whether they are good or bad. I listen to music now that I would never give a chance 10 years ago. As you grow and experience life, you broaden your horizons and become less tunnel visioned. It's a fact, that over Tyme, we get Wyzr."
