The story behind the name: We were eating lunch when someone mentioned a teacher that often goes off
on random tangents, and we liked the sound of it. In conversation it represents the quick topic changes we often have. In
music, it represents that our songs have a variety to them; you don't know what kind of song we'll have next. When Eric left
the band, it was decided that he would take the "Random" with him, leaving the Tangents in their current form.
The history of the band: The band began as an outgrowth of the Eternal Virgins, a band consisting
of Andrew and Nathan. Eric joined the group after jamming with the two at a friend's house. The first show took place at that
same friend's rental house between tenants, and were soon on our way.
