Unless you've been living in an underground bunker at the edges of a valley in the Wyoming badlands, you've heard of THE SENSE-ATIONS! Probably by just reading the name of this supergroup, some of their lyrics and tunes are running rampant in your head. Such songs as "We Are Here for You", "Make Your Dreams Come True", and even "Look, Girl, I Hear You Smelled My Tasty Feelings" have made their way into the psyche as prime candidates for the great American song book.
The new album from the SENSE-ATIONS, "To the Rescue" |
What super group wouldn't be "sense-ational" that had five members who've been singing and dancing since birth? And now, nurtured and guided by their sensational and (some would say overly) affectionate business manager, Marg, the sky's the limit for these overachieving idols.
But, there's a flip side to these five heartthrobs. They not only pose as super singers, but soar as super heroes as well. When they started their opening number at a concert in Santiago, Chile, Billy Beak stopped the concert because he smelled forest fires in the Blue Ridge Mountains. A quick call to fire fighters limited the damage to only thousands of acres. As they were just beginning a concert at Mattress Firm Stadium in Ballwin, Missouri, Lil Peepers saw poachers taking aim at a herd of elephants in a Kenyan wild life preserve. The concert stopped as the Sense-ations took off in their super sonic private jet to arrest the poachers, but by the time they arrived in Kenya, eleven hours later, the poachers had fled the scene. Where do they get their super senses?
Marg, business manager to the stars! |
Angus, THE roadie |
After returning to the states, and having missed all of middle school, the SENSE-ATIONS! were home schooled by their overly caring manager, Marg. Marg would never have been able to get the SENSE-ATIONS! to their current ninth grade reading level without the help of trusty roadie, Angus, who seems to know much more than he lets on. Who else fixes the supersonic jet, or tunes the instruments, or gets the blood stains out of the SENSE-ATIONS! capes?
I have to admit, it is a wonderful feeling to have our singing sweethearts back in our fair Metro City, especially since crime is sky rocketing after Madame Mayor Mayer's new initiative entitled, "The SENSE-ATIONS! Can Take Care of Everything." The entire Metro City police force has been laid off as a result of this new crime fighting initiative. So far, it does seem to be modestly working. Banshee, the SENSE-ATION! with super hearing has heard every broken window and car alarm in Metro City since the new rule has been put into effect. And, Butch Lang, our super singer with the super tongue, has identified over twenty-two restaurants that deserve their B rating.

Soldier on, my pop stars, my caped dancers, and sensitive crime fighters. I'll have front row seats to the next SENSE-ATIONS! concert in Metro City's own Dr. Zizmor Arena.
