I also got talked into doing a band soley because Dank begged and then pestered me for months. I resisted and didn't wanna do it at all, really, but decided I'd help him out because he's Dank Trill. During the first practice, I brought port wine cheese spread and crackers, which he ate. He also smoked the weed I passed around and beer I gave him, but wouldn't gimme a cig because he "didn't have many left." After the next practice, his wife quit. After a half dozen, he still hadn't touched a mic. After he missed a few practices, we got someone else to come in, which prompted him to stop by and yell stuff at the same time. That was the last time he touched a mic in the band. I think he showed up maybe once or twice after that and "quit" months later. I think 1/2 the people in Milwaukee who can plug in a guitar have a similar Dank-submarined band story. The goofball.

Wow, I really like that Rapid Adapter stuff. Just going through each link individually... but damn, love this stuff so far.

[nickg]

yeah, rapid adapter were good! always liked seeing them.

[I Am Not Marty Feldman]

Same here.

Any band involving Scotty Witts is going to be great.  I'm trying to get him active again.

I definitely miss seeing Rapid Adapter.

I was gonna say something similar about Scotty.

He hasn't done anything in a while, has he?

I think Monument was the last band he was in.  This been the bands best and last release: https://datacontroltapes.bandcamp.com/album/summer-demo-2007

The last band Scotty Witts was in was Buster Douglas:  busterdouglas.bandcamp.com/ Scott was just the guitar player in that though. Vocals, songwriting & keyboards were all by Jared in Buster Douglas. Then there's Scott's solo stuff, but that's four or five years old now:  https://myspace.com/scottywittsislame

Duh, forgot about that. That band was formed by drawing names out of a hat for a one-time show, though. Luckily they kept going for a while - best "new" band since I moved to Milwaukee years ago probably, unfortunately they only have that one demo tape (which I tried pushing on certain labels due to its excellent, unaffected Jad Fair fronting the Zombies or whatever vibe). Jarred is a legit something, the only younger "songwriter" I pay attention to here. There aren't many other legit somethings left in the area, or the legits are retired/over.

[Scrod Prickknee]

Yeah, ditto on the Jad Fair thing. He definitely fits in the whole Fair/Johnston/Dart continuum except for the fact that I believe he's a music major & is pretty skilled at actual composing.

Right, have used all 3 as comparisons before. Skilled, but...different. Autistic and truly odd. Not a rip in any way, he's a great dude and seems incapable of making a bullshit move, which right there is rare as hell circa now. I miss seeing him in a purple suit & scarves or whatever weird shit he dug up doing those BD tunes live. Haven't seen Iron Pizza yet, hopefully next week.

Yep, and so was Buster Douglas.
