Maynard's harry back?

This song is leading me to believe that Maynard has a harry back. Anyone else think so?

Re: Maynard's harry back?

Cool picture. Yeah, don't see any hair. I still think this "message" is for him, though. I'm just curious as to what the title's connection is.

Yeah. He drank all their beer and insulted them until they kicked him out apparently.

Re: Maynard's harry back?

"Harry Manback" is the pseudonym for the Italian guy who was supposedly found in Maynards house, and was kicked out after the band members realized that no one actually knew him. Only after he had eaten all the food and ran up the phone bill.

I'm not sure if the thread starter is joking or what. I kinda figured we all knew the story behind the song...

Wrong. "Harry Manback" is a pseudonym for Hosty Menshot of Green Jello, since Menshot and Maynard were roommates for a period of time. Menshot actually has ample back hair from what I hear, by the way.
