One fun part about being on holiday, as they say, is that I have found myself in my parents basement scrounging through old videos looking for gems. This search has, on my first night in town already yielded some very exciting stuff. Almost too much to list... but I will say this:
I found that much of the treasured footage from our first show ever was recorded over. :(
Never fear! It may be best that that show live in our memories only. In its place, however, is "making of" footage from our first album, Pleasantly Surprised! Steve Hunt helped us record it over another holiday vacation--this time in 1994.
Also discovered:
- Random footage of me and Jon Thwaits running around without shirts in the desert
- Me and Mat cruising around town in his old green bomber
- Mat's last show, recorded in his front room with a crazy "in-progress" version of Vader and a really great cut of 3 Candles--oh, and we try really hard to open with the theme song from the A-team. This show gets cut short.
- At said show, our 6th member is also present: The "Psychedeli-deck." just wait and see.
*"pietunes" is a nonesense word my son Seth made up and can be used in much the same way as we OA-ers used to use the word "Danzig." Thanksgiving is a time for pie and, apparently, tunes. :)

Good times had by all listening to you play, I remember someones backyard patio in the evening with the stars shining ever so brightly doing a cure cover...i think, it's all a bit fuzzy.
I remember the Psychadeli-deck. That was one rad night!
