And yes, I know David Crosby had a band called CPR with his son, James Raymond.
WASHINGTON DC - Former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus announced on Friday that he will be the latest member of a new super group featuring former Massachusetts Governor and Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. The band will be under the name CPR. As Priebus notes, "Chris and Mitt were scratching their heads over the name, but when my schedule suddenly became free after this afternoon's tweets from the President, it all came together."
Governor Christie notes "We all have something in common. The President invited Governor Romney to dinner, fed him snails, screwed him over, and kicked him to the curb. I used to fetch his lunch at McDonald's. He screwed me over, and kicked me to the curb. Reince...well, I'm sure you got the picture."
When asked what style of music the band would play, Romney revealed "It will be a mix of easy listening and thrash metal. I like to call it "Easy Thrash." We play elevator music at an eardrum-busting volume. There will also be a little reggae, and we have a few songs that sound like Spandau Ballet at their peak."
CPR's first televised live appearance will be on the upcoming Saturday Night Live's season opener. Their album, "You Ain't So Yuge," will be available on iTunes on August 1st, and will stream on Spotify one week later.
