1) A is a British alternative rock band.
2) A [エース] is a Japanese visual rock band
British alternative rock band:
They formed in 1995 in Suffolk, England. The original line up was the three brothers: Jason Perry (Vocals), Adam Perry (Drums) and Giles Perry (Keyboard), with two friends Mark Chapman (Guitar) and Steve Swindon (Bass). Swindon quit the band in 1997 and was replaced by Daniel P. Carter.
After changing their name from 'Grand Designs' and abandoning their early progressive-inspired sound for a more punky feel, they released their début album "How Ace Are Buildings" in 1997.
The second album; "A vs. Monkey Kong", followed in 1999. Monkey Kong was a more poppy record than How Ace Are Buildings and the band toured the world, played festivals and enjoyed a small degree of success worldwide, especially in Germany.
Hi-Fi Serious was their third album, released in 2002. It was preceded by their biggest single to date, "Nothing", which saw the band reach the UK top ten for the first time, eventually hitting number 9. Starbucks was also a top 20 hit, named after the coffee chain.
The tour following Hi-Fi Serious saw the band playing their largest venues to date, headlining the 5000 capacity Brixton Academy as part of the Inner-City Sumo Tour. 'A' finally released their fourth album on June 27th 2005, entitled "Teen Dance Ordinance". The album had been recorded 2 years earlier, but due to Jason Perry's illness and record company squabbles its release was heavily delayed, by which time the group's following appears to be a mere cult once again. In 2006, Warner dropped 'A' from their record label, citing poor sales.
'A' then went on hiatus from 2006-2008, but have now returned, playing a few shows supporting The Wildhearts. They will be writing new material and hope to release an album in 2009. With this new era for the band the lineup has changed with bassist Daniel P. Carter not returning to the band and has been replaced by John Mitchell of It Bites.
Japanese visual rock band :
consisting of Shin-ichi on vocals, Seiya on bass, U-SUKE and MORI on guitar, and Tōki on drums.

Soared to Taco Bell and I ordered some gorditas (Mmm, that's good!)
Wanted four more, ordered 'em, didn't eat 'em
Then head to Thebe's house for some gymnastics
Fantastic, I backflip on this beat B
Cause we running shit like the Dingleberry's on four cheetahs
Flow colder than Papa Joe's or Domino's (Fuck it, whatever, um)
Trashwang scratched inside the knucks
Drive by with puppy signs plastered on the truck
Then see how many of they fans could fit inside the trunk
Move over the microwave and the cannabis
Try to take the van and the whole band to Canada
Fuck the block news and the venues, they can't handle us
They can't stand us including fruits that Frank's channeling
The Ku Klux Klan see me and my managers
But thank me when they ask where the Five Panels is (fuck)
Man, I suck now, I ain't still dope (nope)
But Chris and Rihanna's fuckin' again so there's still hope
Oh fuck, I went there, balling bitch, I'm Ben's hair
Y'all barely breaking like Taco's self-esteem in a thin chair
Old Navy bitches love this gap, yeah this grin's rare
Watch a nigga smile like five-year-old child
I'm kicking it with Nak and the nigga from Green Mile, it's
Red Bull in this cup so a nigga may seem wild but
That's just all the sherm I was burning a little while ago
Don't let me get hold of that rifle
Shout my nigga Sage Elsseser and Sean Pablo
Surrounded by them niggas that skate with a sick style
And some freckled bitches with giant peaches that's vile
They never did catch that rhino
Squadron full of some lost souls
Sergeant of all, it's autumn and Nak just nollied a pothole
Non-cooperative with his momma's wishes for college
And coppers labeled a problem since paying for Damianos
So shimmy through the swamp, nigga, follow me through the foxholes
Moral Orenthal with a pretty bitch in a Bronco
Hopped right off the seven and stumbled into some Vatos
Threw a punch, got jumped, dusted off and then walked home
Shit, it's like 6 p.m. and his temple throbbing
Hand in the cabinet by seven, sniff the prescription oxies
Logo in the boxes, all my niggas hostile
Cautious of your crosses, scoffing at your doctrines
Bitches augmented stupid as the group is
Only slightly, write precise to get a pussy nigga two chins
Man these stitches shut the loose lips, stumbled in a Ruth's Chris
Slid into a booth and hid the luggage from his shroom trips
See, Lionel ball with Leonardo on the weekend now
And Maui on a scenic route, we on the second season now
Small fry got 'em seasons salty, weeded, coughing
Ease up off me, end is breathing easy as bulimics barfing
From a different breed of doggy, from a different seed and cloth
And teeing off, believe it's Golf Wang, nigga
The lyrics to A's song Sasquatch describe a night out with friends, filled with partying, fast food, and drug use. The singer starts by acknowledging his bad reputation as a “whore beater” but then transitions into talking about going to get gorditas from Taco Bell. The lyrics transition to a mention of One Direction tickets and driving by with puppy signs on the truck. The singer then seems to reflect on his group’s notoriety, including a mention of the Ku Klux Klan, and saying they are too much for blocks and venues to handle.
The second verse mentions being non-cooperative with going to college as a teenager, and getting into physical altercations with people. Drug use is referenced again, with the singer sniffing prescription oxies. The lyrics finish with mentions of different friends and acquaintances, and a hint at the group’s notoriety with the line “believe it’s Golf Wang, nigga.”
The song is heavily influenced by the alternative hip hop collective OFWGKTA, or Odd Future, of which A was a member. Many of the members of the group are name-dropped in the lyrics, including Frank Ocean, Tyler, The Creator, Nakel Smith, Lionel Boyce, and Sean Pablo Murdock.
The song features a sample from David Axelrod’s “Holy Thursday” and was produced by The Alchemist. The song was released as a single in 2013, but did not appear on any of A’s albums.
In the music video for the song, A is seen hanging out with Tyler, The Creator, and other members of Odd Future in a forest. The video also features a cameo from comedian Eric Andre.
The title of the song appears to be a reference to the mythical creature “Bigfoot”, which is also known as Sasquatch. The song makes several references to drug use and partying, which are common themes in OFWGKTA’s music.
The song contains explicit language and references to drug use, violence, and sex.
Interestingly, A has stated in interviews that he does not remember writing or recording the song, due to drug use at the time.
Chords are not available for this song.

Because they're not doing it right. Think about it. Most animals, particularly omnivorous (bears) or predatory (wolves), are territorial. By doing these "bigfoot calls" of theirs they are expecting a response like how a human would (as an example; if you & a friend were hiking and got separated would you not start yelling trying to locate one another?).
But animals generally don't respond that way. Sure some, wolves & lions as an example, are particularly vocal in response to trespassers onto their territory but that is more a bid to call the troops together & intimidate said interloper into backing off before a potential confrontation. But other animals that are solitary (e.g. tigers, leopards, etc.) take a more stealthy approach to any potential interloper because a) they're alone, b) why give yourself away & let the interloper prepare for a potential confrontation, etc.
They insist bigfoot are solitary creatures. So making a racket is just identifying where they are. That doesn't mean a bigfoot is going to answer them & why when it doesn't quite know what they are (and if they're a threat - assuming as an example it's seen humans with guns & watched a hunt) would it even show itself?
Really it's an amusing show run by clowns that pretty much know nothing about animals in general so they'd only ever find an actual bigfoot if it dropped out of a tree onto them.
The Hellfire Club!
I know this show gets hate but I like it. Its entertaining and I like the content. However when the team are doing their night search, they need to do it for a week or so. Instead of just one night. And use 24 hour monitoring and drones - definitely better chance of seeing Bigfoot.

Finally I can relate

I agree

Same, but they literally have never actually found Bigfoot.

Me and a friend had a experience canoeing being followed by two large creatureson both sides of the river. Loud growls occasionally, crashing through the trees, whistles, loud garbled speech ( Sounded like japanese), things thrown in the river near us occasionally. This all went on for about 7 miles up the river, it was between midnight and about 4:30 in the morning. I didnt go back in the woods for 15 years after that and now only go in groups of at least 10 people. Even now driving at night down dark country roads I get an anxiety and feel on the edge of a panic attack always thinking that something is out there in the darkness about to jump out at me. I was a hiker and enjoyed camping and canoeing into the back country, spent a lot of time canoeing in Algonquin park in Canada and have hiked some of the Appalachian trail in the Smoky mountains so i am aware of the sounds of the forest, but that night scared the crab out of us. If I had the experience these people did I would never go back into the woods again.
FACTS MATTER
Agreed. Better to be a coward for a moment, then dead for a lifetime.

Omg...where was this? Do you feel like they were just trying to frighten you off or do you think they'd have truly hurt you had they gotten the chance? Yours is an amazing story. Thank you for sharing!
