Nice Guy - by Starflyer 59

You'll have to excuse my writing style for now as I remember how to write again & also kinda fight to stay awake at the moment...  But nonetheless: enjoy.
Starflyer 59 is from Riverside, CA.  Band leader Jason Martin is the only original member left, but currently on their roster you'll (at the least) find bassist Steven Dail (Project 86; Crash Rickshaw), & drummer Trey Many (Velour 100; His Name is Alive).  They've had over 2 dozen releases since SF59's formation in 1993, including EP's & 2 re-releases & [at least] 1 live release.  Aside from music (& actually as his main line of work right now), he co-owns with his brother, Ronnie Martin, a trucking company inherited from their father.  This song is from their album "My Island", released in 2006 on Tooth & Nail Records (where all of their releases thus far have been released from).

& for kicks, here's a band that I stumbled across on YouTube while looking for "Nice Guy".  They're called Legally Paranoid & they were apparently practicing this song back in 2009:
