Better Than Ezra salutes LSU Tigers with 'Death Valley' EP - ESPN Formed while students at Louisiana State University, Better Than Ezra is returning to its roots. The platinum-selling rockers recently recorded "Death Valley," an EP devoted to their love for their alma mater. The seven-song EP, named for LSU's intimidating Tiger Stadium, features a modern take on songs popularized at LSU tailgates and by the school's Tiger Band. "LSU football has been a part of our DNA since our first practice just off campus in 1988," bassist Tom Drummond said. "We always talked about recording our favorite game-day tracks Better Than Ezra-style. For us to be able to come back to LSU and record the songs is a dream come true."
There are tons of worse bands. Don't hate on the LSU guys. Everyone in the world except me loves U2, for instance, but I'd listen to Better Than Ezra anyday over the dudes from Ireland.
I was at pat o'briens years ago, and guess who walked in? your fave band U2...they passed right by me while i was sitting on the patio. my friend yelled "Bono!" I looked behind me, and there was Bono. He put his hand on my shoulder "what's up fellas?"
fact: the only good song U2 ever recorded was the ' saints are comin' ' song. fact: it's the worst Saint's song, too i'm not a big fan of ezra either but the tribute is awesome. a ton of people around here love them, and even though i don't i'll probably still listen to it...at least once.
