Shoebox Jr.

Shoebox Jr. is a Schlock Treatment character created by Doug Frye and Matt Ringler. He was created on Treatment 228 (Texas Rangers) during a conversation about Matt's Dad and his love for actress Elizabeth Shue. Matt joked that his Dad had a small, portable "Shuebox" or a "Shuebox Jr." in case of the end of the world. Doug remarked that Shoebox Jr. would be a good name for a bluesman.

Shoebox Jr. thus developed into a bluesman. He plays the harmonica and his songs feature lyrics about having holes in his shoes, selling his soul, and beating his woman. One single mentions the fact that he is so poor he cannot afford to buy shoes is forced to wear shoeboxes on his feet.
