Cell Phone Call (or Mobile Phone Premonition) is a short phone call and stage banter between Rob Cantor and Joe Hawley during a concert at the Frieze Basement in December 2002. At this point, only Rob, Zubin and Andrew were part of the band. This is the final (hidden) track on The Pingry EP and appears on Admittedly Incomplete Demos.
On Steve Gallagher's bio on tallyhall.com, it was stated they were in the middle of a "cheesy" Third Eye Blind cover when Joe called.[1]
Lyrics
ROB: It reminds us of the circus a little bit, and I think you'll enjoy a little, um... circus? ZUBIN (?): A lil' circus-- ROB: Here we go. (begins playing, just as his cellphone rings) Oh, my gosh. (audience laughs hysterically) ZUBIN (?): Uh, please turn off your cellphones and pagers in the audience. ROB: Hello? (audience laughter) ZUBIN: Put it up to the mic. ROB: Juh-... Joseph? Yeah, I'm, we're--in the concert now. (audience laughter) ... Yeah, I'm on-stage. ZUBIN: Incredibly, this is not planned. ROB: Uh, I'm getting a call... PJ's calling me. (audience laughter) ROB: Yeah, anyway, are you gonna come?... (bass note, audience laughter) Yeah, you're probably not gonna make it if you haven't left yet. (audience laughter) There's only five songs left. ZUBIN (?): Put it up to the mic. Uh, put it up to the mic, let's hear Joe. (at the same time, a girl in the audience is saying, "We have the whole other half of the concert(s).") ROB: Okay, I have to- I have to go, though, because I'm doing this right now. You're riding-- he's riding a motor-- okay, that's not... doesn't make any sense. I'll see you later, though. Okay, goodbye. All right. (applause) ZUBIN: Rob... Rob Cantor, ladies and gentlemen. (audience laughter, guitar begins, fade out)
