The Red Herring Band combines an odd assortment of infectious melodies into something almost, but not quite, entirely unlike indie rock.
Every morning at 5 AM, Dave Gignac hand-picks only the finest musicians, vine-ripened to the peak of perfection, to use in his special studio project. These musicians are flown via. refrigerated cargo plane to South Austin, but we have no idea what happens to them from there, because they obviously never appear on any of our albums. Instead, you get an over-produced garage band consisting of a trio of Austin high-tech workers who have in fact never played together in the same room.

Story behind the song
Dave, Kent, and Darrell have always taken the advice "don't quit your day jobs" to heart. But sometimes, there is no choice.
Lyrics
Sacked! Sacked! When you get sacked, you don't come back Grab all your $#!+ and throw it on your back Your face gets smacked, your character attacked Makes your balls retract like you've been racked It's whacked, but don't overreact Baby, I've been sacked! Sacked! I got jack, and that's a fact I asked why ... got read the riot act I got sacked, no time to react No questions, just told to pack Like ENIAC, I got hacked At the end of the day, Gignac got sacked! Sacked! When you get sacked, you don't come back Grab all your $#!+ and throw it on your back Your face gets smacked, your character attacked Makes your balls retract like you've been racked It's whacked, but don't overreact Baby, I've been sacked! Sacked! Does this mean I can't come to the Christmas party?
