Severe Tire Damage on TV

A band that sucks this much really shouldn't be on television. But since the TV folks always bought us dinner and beer (and beer and beer), it was a good thing. Here are clips of Severe Tire Damage that have hit the air worldwide.

Band on Demand DOWNLOAD
A fake video made on May 15, 1999. In a gratuitous attempt to be on the Internet 24/7/365, Severe Tire Damage invented "Band On Demand". Live video from our website would show us patiently sitting around, waiting for someone to choose a song, at which time the band would race downstairs to play it. Another stupid idea from Severe Tire Damage. When Terry Winograd requested some Severe Tire Damage video of Mark Weiser for SIGCHI '99, the Band On Demand concept almost fit, so we added Terry's request for "Pincushion Boy" and it became Mark's first posthumous band appearance.
