Song Information
According to vocalist and guitarist Gary Deveney, "The Reputation of Ross Francis" is based on a friend of the band:
| “ | He is someone from our hometown; he’s an elaborate character. Everyone knows him and everyone knows about him, so we thought we should write a song. Once we got going it was really easy, because it was someone that we all knew and who we thought deserved a song written about him. He’s the person that everything seems to always happen to, he tells elaborate stories – he’s just a character. | ” |
