Sloppy and floundering and eating water.

[jackshoegazer]

It's 3 am.  I am home, I am drunk.  I danced and sang and screamed.  I lost my voice.  I hope to find it by morning.  I'm forcing myself to stay up long enough to drink a glass of water in the meager hopes that I won't be incapacitated by a massive hangover.  You have no idea how much editing this is taking so it is coherent and readable.  If the Nazis were Grammar Nazis, I'm Ann-effing Frank.

Little Blue Crunchy Things are the great, untold tragedy of the 90s local music scene.  If there was ever a group of musicians who deserved to get recognized, praised, and compensated for their ability and energy, it is them.  They were insanely popular locally for a while, and made some major advances like appearances of some TV shows and whatnot, sold a ton of albums, but they never launched big time.  It is unfortunate.  Even now, years after they "broke up", their reunion shows (two per year or so) pack venues to capacity.

I was complimented on my dancing by several people and the lead singer of LBCT, Noah, complimented me on my "popping & locking."  I received some free beer.  I saw some friends I haven't seen in a year or more.  All in all, it was a good night.  Now I will sleep for hours and hours and hours.  Zzzzzzz.

You have no idea how hard it was. I realized I should have posted a video instead, but by then, it was much too late for revisions :P

Hey, glad to hear you had a good time. :)

I just dug out an old copy of the airplay logs from the radio station I worked for in college and sure enough, my memory was actually correct for once in a long while -- LBCT's In Loving Memory of... was in rotation during my time as music directory. Cool.

Nice. That's a great live CD.I think their downfall was that their albums could never begin to contend with the amazing live performances. The energy at their shows is just so insane. And I will argue that Ken Fitzsimmons is the best bass player on Earth.
