To back things up, it all started very harmlessly. Waterparks were promoting their new song “Turbulent” on Twitter. Then, Smash Mouth quote tweeted it, suggesting their followers listen to the record.

Waterparks were apparently so touched by the move that they wanted to plan something big.

Anti-Flag bassist Chris Baker had the absolutely best response to the suggestion.
