-Sharpie Crows have been called “deranged, loud, and brilliant”; “the future”; “like a foetal-alcohol Morrissey”; and “drunken shite”.

-Sharpie Crows’ distinctive machine-porn-with-ducks collage posters are created by guitarist Casey LAtimer, who is legally blind for the purposes of driving and Internet control.

-A woman once collapsed and started talking in tongues at a Sharpie Crows show. She later claimed to have felt the presence of a ghost she called ‘Auld Cabbage Breath’.

-Sharpie Crows wrote and recorded a single, ‘(I Am) Gabriel’, with a Papakura church youth group, under the name ‘Kids United’. It was played on both bFM and Radio Rhema and has been added to the Nigerian Combined Protestant Modern Church Songbook.

-Sharpie Crows’ favourite cut of meat is brisket.

-An attempt to perform a Valve show on horseback was stymied by the SPCA, who were concerned that loud noise could upset the animals as well as about possibly inadequate stabling.

-Sharpie Crows have recorded two short albums, the first on defective equipment that randomly inserted profanity and anti-religious comments. A third, ‘Swan Boat’, was canned when an astute listener pointed out that lead single ‘Highway of Life’ was in fact Tom Cochrane’s 1992 hit ‘Life Is A Highway’ played backwards at half-speed.

-Sharpie Crows bassist Joshi has published a children’s book called ‘I Can: Toucan!’
