This my friends, was in 1978.
A few short years after the Oil Crisis.
Read up on why it happened.

By now you’ve seen “Be Kind, Rewind” so I won’t have to explain the concept of Sweding to you.
So with that in mind allow me to lay this incredible heavy trip on you.
Truly, truly awesome.

My old band was a shitload of fun.
I was 20, I had hair down to my arse, I though Victor Wooten and Les Claypool were my gods.
I played a five-string Washburn with both hands on the fretboard, and a Maton Fretless while flying through the air.

We sat in the van driving for hours, we got high, we rocked very, very hard, and we had a shitload of fun.

I really, really loved it.

We even put some CDs out.
Hey, it was the early 90’s and we were up our own arses musically so we alienated a lot of people with our flutey-fretless-funk.

It doesn’t matter.
I loved every money-sucking minute of it.

Anyway.
While anwering an email question from someone I found this:

Our First CD

.99c may be a bit much for it, but I’d like to see how high we could bid for it.

Get cracking.

It’s the only way you’ll hear it!

Detox? Not just for your colon.

A long, long way from “you want a shot at the title” with Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon I, and even further away from Big Wednesday, a clearly wheezing and semi-lucid Gary Busey pimps himself for rent money for an internet phone company, with truly genius results. Hitting every mark that Hasslehoff tried to hit with his self-depreciation. Twisted, hard to watch, hilarious and quite genius.

PS: If you’re wondering why I’m updating with a simple youtube post, it is because I got back from my honeymoon and landed in 33º LA, with a 38º fever. I’ve been in bed for three days trying to out-heat the sun.

Vote for me?

So I take a few photos here and there…
I may plug them shamelessly here but hey – Whaddayawant?
