The Spiders From Mars

The Spiders From Mars were David Bowie/Ziggy Stardust's three-piece rock band from 1971 to mid 1973, however they were only officially known by this name following the album's release in June 1972. Bowie has said that the inspiration for the name came when he was writing the song "Ziggy Stardust". The band consisted of:

Mick (Ronno) Ronson (Band leader, guitar, piano and vocals)
Mick (Woody) Woodmansey (drums)
Trevor Bolder (bass)

"...you're the blessed, we're the Spiders From Mars..." 'Hang Onto Yourself' (Bowie)

where you from

Something gang members ask to see where other gang members are from,

NEVER be in one City and Represent another.

Gang Member:Where you from?

Some Guy:Same place your from.

Gang Member:You bang?

Some Guy:I wish.

At this point it might be a good idea to buy the Gang Member a beer.

drinking from the firehose

to be overwhelmed (with information, work, etc.); to do something intensely; to be inundated

I'm still drinking from the firehose, learning all about working in this new world that I find myself in.

I've been drinking from the firehose this semester, trying to pass all these chemistry courses.

Cut from track

Being cut from track is the ultimate shame. Track teams rarely have cuts. So actually being cut from track implies that one is a fail of the highest caliber. To be cut from track is an excellent reason to become an hero.

Kgor: I ran an 8 minute mile, yaaaaay!

Coach: Kgor, everyone else ran under 6 minutes, I think we'll need to let you go...

Normal human being: Jesus, that Kgor got cut from track! He has failed where others have failed to fail before!

Kgor: *Stalks freshman, then becomes an hero*
