last night i dreamt that i was watching a tv show with my mom that frog eyes was going to guest on. it looks like a typical talk show, and the host comes out and introduces frog eyes. carey and mel sit at separate grand pianos, while mike rak sits on a stool with an electric guitar. carey starts "one in six children" but he's singing it really badly. i soon realize something is amiss -- rak's guitar is too loud and he's just randomly hitting chords, and carey stops playing to open a water bottle, causing him to miss a line. it also becomes apparent that melanie doesn't really know what to do with her piano.
toward the end it starts jumping between close-ups of their faces, and they all look REALLY sad and disinterested. i realize at this point that this is deliberate -- the show is emphasizing how badly their performance is. then it cuts to the host of the show, but now he's in a car with a bunch of mafia types. it suddenly makes sense to me: this isn't a talk show but a drama/mystery and frog eyes are part of the plot, which involves them being threatened by the host to play poorly.
it gets incoherent after that, but later there's a part where i approach frog eyes and ask them to play in some abandoned barn, and carey is really enthusiastic about the idea.
the end.

i've had a few dreams featuring frog eyes and they too involve frog eyes performing very poorly or everyone hating them.

I've had a TON of dreams about Frog Eyes. The last one, Carey and I sang together one of his songs and played acoustic guitar. It was magical.
One time I was watching them perform and in the middle of a song Carey changed some of the lyrics to advocating drugs rather than "I don't do them" and looked directly at me. It was magical.
This other time I went and visited Carey and Mel at their house. I ended up spending more time with Mel and she asked me if I knew Carey's father was a hobo. Not so magical, but they had a nice house.
I guess the measure of a true fan is how often he dreams of Frog Eyes.
Sorry ashinyobject

I once had a dream that Frog Eyes were on The Simpsons. Bart, Lisa, and Milhouse were eating at a fancy restaurant, but they couldn't afford to pay the check, but then Carey, Mel, Mike, and Spencer entered, animated in simpsons style of course, and Bart was going to try to scam them into paying for their meal (in the world of this dream Frog Eyes was a really famous band).

Last night I dreamt that I got Tears... in the mail
The t-shirt was a bright blue with iron-on letters spelling "Tears of the Valedictorian"
I put in the cd on And Isaac Brock is singing over all of the songs Like he secretly mixed himself into the CD
Then I woke up

last night i dreamt that i saw frog eyes twice. the first time was in a little club, and carey was apparently playing solo (sitting on a chair!). a bunch of people gathered close around him, and he harangued them for coming "just to see a big spectacle."
then the second time was in my mom's hometown, and they were playing at a restaurant. for some reason i didn't have tickets and i bought them from a scalper outside. the tickets had seat numbers on them, and my ticket (which was the size of a sheet of paper and embossed with gold) said i was at Table 1, which turned out to be the best, fanciest table in the restaurant.
then i was outside on the phone with thom (!!), who was driving up for the show. i had to give him directions.
later i was hanging out with carey, and i was explaining to him about how i randomly got Table 1.
No music actually was played during the dream.

dreamt i was at a frog eyes concert in modena, italy. the band came out and gave everyone cookies, which were really good. i thought that i should email carey to ask for the recipe, but decided i shouldnt since it would be a lot of typing for him.
they played a couple of songs, then carey sat down with an autoharp and started singing a smiths cover (not sure what song).

The other night I dreamt that Thom messaged me and told me to follow his instructions on a website
I did and I ended up in 2008 And it was totally different than expected

i had a dream i was at carey and mel's house and they were helping me get ready for some sort of trip i was about to embark on. mel had a tattoo on her arm -- a picture of herself as a simpsons character -- that was a diagram of all the stuff i needed to bring.
