'''[[The Announcer]]''''s name tells all, as he serves as an announcer or host wherever one is needed. He doesn't really let his personality show through, so we know little of him as a character, except that he does seem to be eager to do his job. He first appeared in [[Original Book|the original Homestar Runner children's book]], and hasn't really changed much since then. While he rarely actually appears on-screen, his voice (earnest and mostly British) is used all the time. He resembles the members of [[The Barbershop Trio]]. '''[[The Announcer|(more...)]]'''

When Homestar went to go fetch some paint to cover it up, Marzipan tells Homestar he "took too long" to get the paint, and she, The Cheat, and Strong Mad formed a band with the name "Cool Tapes". Its members consist of Marzipan on guitar/vocals, Strong Mad on bass, and The Cheat on drums. Currently, they have seven known songs, but only four titles have been verified. The band's name is mentioned in almost all of their songs. The band went on tour through many bead shops and topiary gardens during June 2006 (according to Weclome Back), where Homsar sold "StEVEN INCHES" at their merchandise table for pi dollars. When the band competed in the Battle Royale of the Bands, they lost after Marzipan wrote a song about the "not very nice" things she suspected judges Limozeen of performing. (more...)
