New Specs 

A cracking Birmingham UK based ska band. Named to be the 'New Specials' but they soon realised that they could never match up to the expectation of that name so it was shortened to New Specs.

Originally comprising of Duncan 'Disorderly' Gaunt on lead guitar, Andy 'Boris Arse Mop' Taylor on rhythym guitar, Jimmy 'Spazmo' Norwood on bass and Dean 'One, More, Lots, Many' Beresford on drums.

A later configuration brought in Olly 'Loops' Bradley on bass and his brother Syme 'Fat Guy' Bradley on lead guitar. This moved Andy Taylor to vocal duties.

Top gigs included Four Oaks Tennis Club, where they kicked ass and Little Aston Youth Club whewre they kicked even more ass.

These days, they are all married and sad. Apart from Dean Beresford who still forges a career in hitting things for a living.

Syme went on to become features editor for Guitarist magazine.

Duncan, married with two kids, now builds bus shelters and McDonalds Restaurants.

Andy claims to work in the IT industry but we all know that he's only thinking about the next addition to his rather large guitar collection.

Olly is now a bass playing mercenary who will play any tune for lager or an automatic weapon.

The Specs rocked, shining light and influence upon all that bathed in there sadly short glare.
Andy: 'Any do's on?'
Dunc: *pause* 'Nah."
Andy: 'Wish I had a Tardis.'

Intro to 'Wish I had a Tardis' New Specs tune 1979.

I was walking to the Staten Island Ferry entrance when a scammer came up to me to sell me tickets, but I already knew the Staten Island Ferry is free. I gave him the New York Special and kept walking.

new jersey turnpike special 

When you are on the Jersey Shore beach, you have a girl on her hands and knees, and you insert a roll of quarters into a girls' butthole. She then turns around and while you fuck her in the vagina she is able to spit the quarters out of her butt and into a bucket.
I gave Allison a New Jersey turnpike special on spring break and then we used the quarters at the convenient store.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
