In its sixth year, the FBO strives to build parity between the failed and the successful.
THE FBO
Created in 2006, the Failed Bands of Oklahoma (FBO) is a collective that spans borders and time zones. To create worldwide awareness for failed bands, the FBO is staging 'FBO Night in the Panhandle: A Celebration of Failure', tentatively scheduled for September 2009. Also the FBO's plans to re-stage the historic Battle for Hutchens have been postponed until we can ensure a safe environment for FBO re-enactors.
On Probation
Colorado is now off its three-month probation for complaining about a stunning horse sculpture the artist died to make.

Who is FBO's Top Fan?
Who is Canada's best prog rock band?
Top Fan
In May 2008, Rich Trott (of California) maintained his status as FBO's Top Fan with a narrow, unimpressive victory over Mark Hardin and several others in an open poll vote. Visit him here.
FBO Observers
The number grows as the FBO Concert in Guymon nears.
Total FBO Observers
Beginning February 23, 2009 -- the day after an AP writer said the FBO made him a 'better writer.'
Have you ever seen the stars in the sky? The ones that shoot are the ones who've died.

Congrats! Please do not wear Houston Rockets jerseys while appearing on TV. It will confuse the bejesus out of older folks like me.
That is so cool! Your mere garage has become the batcave. Way to go!
Just took a vote of FBO members within 10 feet of me, and you won (unanimously, I might add) the "FBO Person with the Coolest Job".
