Teenburger (Ghettosocks + Timbuktu)

WHO IS TEENBURGER? Teenburger came together with Tim Wallace (Timbuktu), Darren Pyper (Ghettosocks) The initials TB were used due to the bands love for the UK hardcore band, The Beatles.... The name “Burger” stands for “Boys Undergoing Rigorous Genius Exposés Regularily,” but this was an afterthought once the band’s name was already Teenburger, according to Ghettosocks and Timbuktu. Their first gig was at John Berry’s house on Adam Yauch’s 17th birthday. Since that gig, the quartet have been assigned aliases within the group: Timbuktu is Clay Hamilton, Ghettosocks is Cappello Feldman, and is Kate Schellenbach is Lisa. Clay Hamilton a.k.a. Stashius Clay (Timbuktu) is a senior who appears to have it made. He is looking forward to summer vacation and almost has his car paid off. He is popular, in large part because of his part-time job at a burger joint where his girlfriend, Lisa (Kate Schellenbach), also works. Clay is obsessing about how to end his long-time relationship with Lisa so he can play the field during his senior year. However, he is fired from the burger joint for insulting a customer, and when he tries to tell Lisa how much he needs her at a school rally before a big football game, Lisa tells Clay that she is dumping him to see other guys. Clay quits his next job because of the humiliation of having to wear a pirate costume when delivering food. He gets a third job at a convenience store, where he successfully thwarts an attempted robbery and is promoted to store manager. As the album begins, high school senior Cappello Feldman (Ghettosocks) fights a bout of depression by deciding to face his problems and attend the last day of school on a nice spring day. He encourages his pessimistic best friends, Clay (Timbuktu) to do the same so that they can fully appreciate the upcoming summer break. Capello persuades Ron to let them use his father’s VW to travel to school, and eventually around town. The rest of the school and many residents learn of Capello’s depression and offer donations to help “Save Capello.” The strict teacher, Mrs. Chung, has no patience with Pompei’s carefree attitude and especially not with Pompei’s wasting of class time. Finally, on the evening of the graduation dance, Mrs. Chung shows up at Pompei’s house and informs him that since he has wasted eight hours of class time over the past year, Mrs. Chung intends to make up for that time now. They proceed to have a one-on-one tutoring session that lasts until Mrs. Chung is satisfied that Pompei has understood the lesson. Outside of class, Pompei wrecks a car belonging to the highschool’s star football player Jeff Charleston (El Da Sensei). To avoid being beaten up, Pompei puts the car on the highschool’s front lawn and paints the car with slurs supposedly written by a rival high school, Lincoln. An epilogue reveals that Pompei saves Brooke Shields from drowning and then blows the reward money hiring LL Cool J to play at his birthday party. Mrs. Chung is left to believe everyone is on dope. Lisa (Kate Schellenbach) is worried that she’s not attractive or experienced enough to meet let alone keep any guys. While working at the mall she meets a 26-year-old stereo salesman who asks her out. She sneaks out to meet him and they have sex at a local make-out place. She reveals the loss of her virginity to Linda who assures her that it will hurt less as she does it more. Teenburger, they're a mouthful.
