High School.. Ah.. what memorable years (Seventeen Magazine)
"Chris [Collingwood, his partner in Fountains of Wayne] and I took a sculpture class, which was a complete joke. Once we collaborated on this performance piece that consisted of the two of us drinking vodka and playing Scrabble. We were accompanied by this loud, horrible, abrasive music that we'd recorded, and the professor had to sit there and watch us get drunk while being assaulted by this music. That was fun. I think we got a D for that."
"Chris Collingwood, from Fountains of Wayne
School: Williams College
Degree: bachelor's in psychology"
"I liked everything about school except the classes part. That part sucked, but the rest of it was really good."

"My mom I guess forgot to pick up Hanukkah gifts, so she picked out glue sticks in a drug store. And she like gave us these glue sticks. Running joke in our family for 10 years.." Oh, Christmas is coming up, maybe we will get a glue stick, every kids dream."

--Adam Schlesinger of Fountains of Wayne

The Wallflowers - Before Dylan
This is an absolutely authenticated fact, directly from the e-mail mouth of Chris Collingwood! Apparently, the name that FOW was going to use originally was "The Wallflowers", but Jacob Dylan (Bob's son) bought the rights to use the name. So, instead of hearing "One Headlight", the lead singer of The Wallflowers could have been singing about "Radiation Vibe"

"Fountains of Wayne is a store in Wayne and It's right next to the DMV where you go and get your drivers licensed renewed. So everybody in New Jersey knows this place. So we have since gone in and made friends with the people of the place." says Adam about the name Fountains of Wayne.
