- Here's what he had to say about the band:
- Unwound seeped into my life sitting on a couch at cleaning time at the Jabberjaw one evening in LA. I remember listening to Fake Train as Gary Dent would be sweeping up the place, I had asked him several times about it but couldn't manage to remember who it was. It was after some sort of early 90's Am Rep sort of show, I was beat serving espressos to the long shorts/shaved head crowd and was sitting in the TV room eyes shut. The room was clearing, and as it did I could hear the first side of it come into focus, the end of Lucky Acid into Nervous Energy, and then the "medley" that closes the first side. I was freaked out so much I couldn't move! It was mesmerizing. I got up and rewound the first side to hear it again now that it was only Gary, Jessie(our friend) and I left in the place. My life had changed at that moment.
- Somethings:
- A show in Pomona/Claremont(where was that one again Vern?) with Fluf. Unwound so good I couldn't do my own band anymore. Unwound's Mountain Dew days.
- Unwound in Austin Texas sandwiched between Polvo and Sonic Youth. WASTING everyone that night. 5000 kids jumping up and down to Dragnalus, David U and I trying to play Hexenzsene back at his place. Going out with them for potato taco's the next morning. Jamie Spidle, and I contemplating going to Dallas to see them again that night.
- Countless Jabberjaw shows including the one with Justin's famous "Jesus Christ Pose" photo op. Slug getting on a bill(w/Clikitat Ikitowi). Valley rednecks with half shirts and beer guts dancing behind Sara the whole set !!!scary!!! really this goes on, and on...
- Hearing all the new songs off of "Challenge For..." the day before Halloween, and Unwound, Witchypoo playing a show with Get Hustle that night at the Midnight Sun. Sara with mallets! Vern's bass lines, Justin becomes angular... what was hardcore again???
- Playing guitar with Unwound in Atlanta at the Echo Fall 2001 a week after the world went crazy. Thrones, Mecca Normal and us playing Black Flag, Germs, and Sex Pistols covers together onstage.
