Facts
Cherry Rounders is a character created by a
member of the 1999 band "Poopy Booby", who were all three members
of the band "Noose" from 1996 to 2000. The name was coined from a
catchphrase by Lindsay Fishel of Martinsville, Indiana who called
coins "Shrapnel Currency" and Nick Mills who added to that "I need
a Five-Cented Rounder". When put with the word cherry, his name
simply implied balls. Cherry Rounders first recorded an album
entitled I CAN DO 1T AL50, which had a mock cover featuring
cherry's head on a nude model's body, mocking
Marilyn Manson's
Mechanical Animals album. On it, a
certain track by the name Dung Nugget Meal can be noted in the
memory of some. In 2000, This song was rerecorded simply as "I Eat
Poop", which leaked onto Napster and scored a [fanclub

Cherry himself later created

"Cherry
Rounders, born June 9th, 1981 under the name Jerry Lehr, is a rare
gem of a personality that has been buried under wraps and hidden
away in a desert for some years now. Rumor had it that just
recently he had returned to his small town of Martinsville, Indiana
to put on a concert only to be booed severely off of the stage.
Several reports of both UFOs and a hot air balloon crashing were
linked to this event. In 1999, shortly after recording his debut
record 'I CAN DO 1T AL50', with a cover mocking Marilyn Manson's
release Mechanical Animals, Cherry Rounders was facing death
charges for promoting acts of beastiality, coprophilia, amongst
other things, that were illegal in his small town of local
exposure. Cherry then added the track "Away" and threw as many
copies as he could into random bathroom stahls across various
department stores in the Martinsville, Indiana area. This just
before taking off in a rainbow-colored hot-air balloon and drifting
away to the middle of the desert, recently discovered seven years
later as being a small mild desert near the ozarks. Apparently he
only had enough battery power left to manage a small EP of crappy
recordings in 2000 called "Airplanes & Duckies" which featured
a newer remake of dung nugget meal, called "I Eat Poop." He
installed Napster to download some illegal music at the time and
little did he know that I Eat Poop had apparently leaked and found
many new homes.
In 2001, a small visit from who became known at
the time as "Happy Rounders" for his classic first smile as he
showed up, recorded an outback austrailian remake of "Kangaroo
Rapist" to commemorate their times in the desert together and the
random things they had to do to eat, like hunting, which cherry had
never before even tried, which was planned to be dropped on the
still-to-be-released "Desert Days" LP featuring quite an enormous
amount of remixes remakes and new soon-to-be-classics. Happy also
delivered the news to cherry that there had been a fanclub started
for him on yahoo groups. Happy also recorded "Macho", which has
still yet to surface. Cherry had went back to the desert he
mentioned on a blog he had on myspace before finally dropping it
due to the overwhelming amount of porns, that he had made an
attempt to find this and other obscurities in sand all around.
"Maybe someday" he said. Cherry had never responded to any of the
questions regarding any album material he had recorded while in the
desert. He just had this to say "I really have to eat right now its
been like seven years since I've had any human food and I'm kind of
still on the run from the cops".
But a close friend from back in
the days of cherry's former band Poopy Booby, Mr Whisker Bizkit, in
2003, flew overhead in a jet and dropped off his AC power cord,
knowing this was preventing Cherry's recordings to continue. He
landed to record one song, a remake of the former Poopy Booby
classic "Penecostal Women Shopping At K-Mart Turn Me On" written by
Nick Mills of the band Coy, and used with permission. He brought
alongside him a very mean obese girl who wished to not be named or
credited to remake a version of "Kangaroo Rapist" with him and so
cherry could have some sex with something.
Three songs that were
performed live in 2006 were verified as "Kangaroo Rapist" (renamed
Kangaroo) "My Butt" and "I Eat Poop". Though responses were
negative at this time, these songs definetly had been upgraded from
when they were last found. But Last we heard of cherry, he was a
school teacher. He had been jailed for things we have withheld from
this article but went through rehab after a spiral and reportedly
"found god". As to if this were just for probationary reassurance
has been a debate amongst angry cherry oppressers for a long time
but one thing's for sure, the end of 2007 will see the release of
his story, told in a musical."
