7944766
We are looking for a voice to read about a minute or two worth of narration for a mock version of Behind the Music on VH1. The closer the voice sounds to the man who does the actual show, the better. This is for a project being done by students and will never be used publicly. This is strictly for presentation purposes only. Unfortunatey none of the students in my group have very good narration voices, so hopefully you can help. We are on a very tight budget and an even tighter schedule. We look forward to hearing from you though and are excited to see if you can help.

Behind The Morning
Narrator: They were dubbed "The greatest group to ever rock before lunch."
Stones Editor: They were revolutionary. I mean, they changed the way people lived. I'd never seen anything like The Mourning before. They invented a new genre for crying out loud. Breakfast rock. It was so incredible, it just woke you up.
Narrator: An assembly of talent so powerful, people would drive for miles just to get a taste of it.
Groupie: One time, my friends and I wanted to see The Mourning so bad, I sold my car to get money for the trip. At the time it just seemed like a good idea. We never realized we'd need that car to get to the show.
Narrator: For years, The Mourning was the best it could be. Fame, fortune, and success surrounded the group without an end in sight. Rob "Hash" Brown, Joe, Stixx, and Scrambles, were on top of the world.
Ozzy: They fuckin' ruled man! We couldn't fuckin' keep up.
Geraldo: I met those guys before anybody even knew about them. After they blew up, I couldn't even get a call back.
Narrator: But the accolades, glory, and recognition would disappear just as quickly as they came.
Road Manager: The Mourning? Wait, who?
Groupie: They were like, a shooting star. They were so bright. And then (snaps fingers), they were gone.
Narrator: Despite a flourishing career, front man Rob "Hash" Brown just couldn't escape his troubled past.
Friend of Hash: When his parents divorced and he moved from Idaho to Ohio, he changed man. He never really fit in. Then he dropped out of high school. All he ever talked about was his band, The Mourning.
Roadie: Hash was almost obsessed with The Mourning. It was to the point where he almost didn't even care about himself.
Narrator: In fact, Hash Brown didn't care. His reckless lifestyle took a toll on both himself and his band.
Geraldo: Yeah, I tried to interview him in '84. He almost killed me. He was so far gone on ketchup, I don't even think he knew what he was doing.
Hash's Therapist: He definitely had a problem. He needed help.
Narrator: But Hash wasn't the only member of the group that needed help. The Mourning's drummer, Stixx, also had problems that couldn't be ignored.
Slash: Me and Stixx went way back. We really connected man. We just got each other. Both two guys that kept to themselves, kinda did their own thing. He was amazing man, amazing drummer. It was like he was addicted to the drums. But like all the greats man, he had some issues.
Narrator: Stixx, a French-born toast, certainly did have some issues. And his drum kit wasn't his only addiction. He was addicted, to powder. In the form, of sugar.
Geraldo: I had one interview with him and I'll never forget what he said. He said, "I'm a French toast man, I'm supposed to love the powder."
Narrator: And that he did. So much so, that he would inadvertently take his own life with it.
Groupie: I'll never forget the day I found out. The newspaper had this big headline that said, "Stixx- A French, Toasted Over Powder"
Narrator: It was this loss, that sent The Mourning into a tailspin.
Ozzy: (Mumbling Incoherently) Subtitles read:
I think that when Stixx passed, it was like the end of an era. There was no way The Mourning would be the same.
Narrator: The other members of the band had mixed reactions the news. Scrambles, The Mourning's electric guitarist, known for being completely absent-minded, didn't realize Stixx was gone, until two years later.
Scrmbls. Memry. Coach: The thing with Scrambles, he suffered from from what is clinically known, as Forgetfulotosis and an extreme case of Duh. It's like his egg, really is scrambled.
Stones Editor: Scrambles was really something. It was like he was storing nothing but killer riffs between his two ears and nothing else. I'm not even sure if he really understood why people called him Scrambles in the first place.
Narrator: Taking the news of Stixx passing particularly hard was Joe. The Mourning's bassist, Joe, was the rock of the band. Anytime things got a little too crazy, Joe was there to keep things grounded.
Slash: You know, you look at Joe and you see a cup of coffee. Like something that's there everyday, and if it's not, you just don't feel right. He's like the daily equalizer, making sure everything is okay.
Stones Editor: I think Joe felt responsible. Like he let the group down. It wasn't his job to babysit, but I still think he feels like everything rests on his shoulders. But that's just the way it was in the 80's. It was an excessive, unhealthy time.
Narrator: Like all great bands, The Mourning had a signature style. A style that Joe refuses to let go of.
Producer: Joe is bringing the band back. If anyone could do it, it's Joe.
Narrator: With the help of Joe's longtime friend and drummer Smooth E., The Morning is making a comeback.
Stones Editor: Nobody will ever replace Stixx. But that doesn't mean that Smooth E. can't fill in for him. Everyone in that band loves Joe and they love Smooth E.
Slash: I'm cool with the band coming back. Let's face it, what happened to Stixx, happened because of Stixx. I spoke with the band, and because U was Stixx favorite letter, there dedicating that to him. Nobody can ever take that away from him.
Narrator: With the The Mourning's U resting safely with Stixx, the band is ready to thrive now, as The Morning.
Rehab specialist: I've been working now with Hash for a while. He's actually a great friend of mine. He's been as healthy as can be now for about the last 15, 20 years. He's excited about The Morning again.
Scrmbls. Mem. Coach: Scrambles had a scientific breakthrough about 10 years ago. Sharp as a knife that guy. I swear he's challenging Joe now as the go-to guy.
Narrator: With the group's self-destrucitve ways far behind them, it appears they are poised to re-invent the breakfast category yet again.
Geraldo: They're definitely ready. They've grown up. I think they just want to do what they're supposed to. Do what tastes right.
Narrator: With a fresh attitude and a renewed energy, The Morning is getting a fresh start. Tonight on Behind the Breakfast...
