Excepter goes on tour, while my dad blasts Excepter from his 1994 Taurus every day of his life

New York’s Excepter are many things, but they’re mostly just the kings of dad rock. All dads love Excepter. When a baby is born, a dad goes to the store and says “Give me your finest Excepter record.” Then they blast that sucker every day, embarrassing the hell out of their lame sons. “Check out this Excepter record, son, it’s really rocking stuff,” the dads of the world exclaim. “Daaaaad, Exepter is so lame!” the sons exclaim in response. Once the sons go to college, though, they’ll pull out those old Excepter records and realize that they had some really good songs. Such is the way of the world.

Until all the kids grow up, Excepter is going on tour. After a quick show in their home city of New York, the group will be heading overseas to perform for European dads of various nations. Everywhere they go, dads with beer bellies and old baseball caps will be jumping up and down, shaking their children and yelling about the greatness of Excepter. This is the universal language. This is dad language.
