'Kids of Widney High'!!!!! Hell yeah. I used to work at a big record distributor and ended up selling a couple boxes of that CD for all the wrong reasons. 'Insects' is the best tune, where they start screaming about 'spiders crawling over me'. What a record, bad keyboard pre-sets, horrible alto sax solos ala Kenny G...classic. I'm going to keep out of Flanger debate...being bias and all. But I just have to add that I think it's a wicked record...duh, wouldn't have released it if I thought otherwise, but then again, I have hundreds of records that go 'scronk honk fernernal honk noodle noodle'...so maybe I'm just a sucker for a good prog jazz noodle fest. See Ya Jeff >oh and the new bungle album comes out next week. ;) >and i get to go patton and his freaks play the same day, and The Kids of >Widney High are opening! im going to hell for seeing this show live, i know >it. just in case nobody knows who The KIds of Widney High are: about 8 to >12 mentally retarded kids that put out a album a couple of years ago of them >singing songs about getting a car and cleaning the kitchen and putting on >their socks and pants (you get the idea). and for some strange reason, mike >patton thought it would be great if they started off their tour in SF with >"the kids" opening up for them. >like i said, im going to hell for this one.
