If I remeber that SHS/ND show in Orem right, Gwen came out with little devil horns on her head for the finale, which was a song about the devil, I think. That was awesome, Jon. (Was that when we first met? With Sam, at New York Pizza or whatever?) You know, I have half of “I Wish I Had A Raygun” on my iPod. It’s fun to listen to music by people you know.

I love reading this type of stuff as I used to go out and see heaps of bands (wasn’t in the right place to see SHS though). My first ever CD I bought was a Fishbone one and I got to see them at Reading in 1993.

Ah, memories!

Good for you for not hating him. I just read his site and I think he’s the hugest asshole I’ve ever encountered, in print or in life. I’m counting Bob Novak here too.

You’re a nice person.

Let me just say this.
I’m from Seattle.
I know who Herschel is and I know why you would plead with him to swim.
’nuff said.

Wow — thanks for posting that little tale. Stuff I wouldn’t have thunk. And especially thanks for the link to merkley’s art: awe-inspiring. I love when I can look at someone’s work and have no fucking clue how they created it.

Hey!! I was in CA a few times. And I used to date a lead guitarist in a band before they hit it big. But I don’t want to name drop. : )

I love these stories. I also want a pic of you rocking out.

And thanks for the merkley??? link. I love his art. Nice!

This post, and the fact that I get a handful of people each week landing on my site because they searched Swim Herschel Swim has inspired me to write my version of events. It will probably be longer than yours. It will most certainly piss off Rod. I’ll post it soon.

Thanks for the link.

feisty girl: I’m thinking Ross on Friends in Rachel’s prom video, complete with ‘fro, mustache, and Casio. I could be wrong. It’s not like I know the guy.
