about

as I said in the description of the first album, it was our intention to smoke a shitload of weed. We did that and then some. Unfortunately though, our singer Jason, was allergic to it and we were smoking so much that the second smoke was starting to affect hi brain chemistry and he was forced to quit the band. I still can't figure out why we didn't just smoke it outside. I guess we were pretty stoned at the time. Our friend Bill Crapelle brought another singer down one night named Jason Schwuler and he ended up singing for us for maybe a year. He didn't fit though. He was straight, and kinda religious. I talked him into doing acid with me and that might have messed him up a bit. basically he was an over singer and tried to sound like Eddy Vedder or something. I didn't like it much and even though our music was progressing nicely and by this point we were scary tight from playing our crazy complicated songs, we eventually just fell apart sometime in 1995.Jon London and I went on to form Lummox With Merrick Atkinson, but a few years later Jon's diabetes got the better of him, and he is no longer with us. He was about the best drummer I have ever played with I think. He was like Billy Cobham, Neal Pert, Bill Bruford and big Gene Hogland all rolled up into one body. A bit overwhelming for some but exactly what I want out of a drummer.
