Goin' Out of Bidness

In 2010, during the sessions for what would have been their third studio album, Bill Cole and Peter Keeble (who had joined again as a full time member) decided to leave the band, and Bidnessmen was no more.  The three songs they had finished, and a remix of Jere's "It's Over," featuring a new piano track by Edwin Milam, are here, as an EP collection called, "Goin' Out of Bidness."

"Moody's Got My Keys," a song by Bill Cole, tells the story of the day that John's keys were mistakenly taken home by someone not John, and his comically panicked reaction to the event.


"Last Days," also affectionately known to band members as, "Eve of Destruction," though those words actually appear nowhere in the song, is Jere's warning of impending doom if things don't change.

"Eatin' Sloppy Joes" is a song written by John as the answer to a challenge by his wife to write a song about eating Sloppy Joes ... easy enough ... well, and there's gotta be that Bidnessmen double entendre, at the end ...
