Well, it's pretty convoluted, but I have a penchant for mysterious convoluted things.
About 5 years ago I went to get my student ID photo taken and I new the guy taking the picture, so I made the most rediculous face I could and it came out a real peach. This photo was so bizarre, that I dubbed it Frogboy to match my drivers license photo, "The Felon". It looked strangely like a mug shot. That was the birth of an early song, "The Felon and Frogboy". Fast forward a few years. I still like the Frogboy name and adopt it as my email and IM name. One day I stumble across Frogbot as a new variation on Frogboy thanks to the magic of the Qwerty system. I decide I like Frogbot even better. In the process of coming up with song names for the album I came up with a few I was rather proud of like, "Frogboy Grows Gills", and "Frogbot Eats Polyphony". I decided I would try to make this a partial theme of the album - still working on some of these. So... I came up with the album name "The Quebequois", a) because I've always loved the word, period and b) I realized the strange correlation between Frogboys (half frog) and The Quebequois (half French). For any francophiles like myself, who affectionately appropriate derrogatory terms for the French, the rest will easilly fall into place I hope. Hope that made some sense. I've been staring at this screen for way too long.
