First, I love Heather first, then you. However you made giant strides with the Fishbone reference.

I might accept the clogs after that.

We did get to hang with them a little bit on this trip. We went shopping on Melrose after driving up from OC and people were gawking at Gwen. They were all super nice and it took about .05 of a second to know that Gwen was going to be famous.

I remember Gwen asking me about being Mormon and being married so young. The nice famous people are the ones who deserve every bit of success they get.

Sidenote: I remember wanting to take Herschel away from heavy ska and move towards pop songs. That didn’t fly so well with just about everybody in the band. That move is precisely what No Doubt did that brought them their massive breakthrough. Just saying. Definitely no sour grapes at all, at that point Swim Herschel Swim had hit a huge wall of personality and opposing forces.

Have you played any SHS for Leta? I hope one day she realizes how cool her parents are for all these cool things you have done.

I totally remember Swim Herschel Swim. Did you guys every play with Catfische? Or Hoo Ray Who? I think I remember playing a gig with your band… back in the day. Tell me if I’m remembering right?

If Heather likes this I would LOVE to know. I keep hearing the Feelies over and over when I listen to these guys!

Oh myyyyyy! I was at that show. I was 18, the year I graduated from high school. It was L.A. fashion to show up late to shows (that, and traffic) so I wasn’t there for your set!

I am sad now…but I bet I couldn’t have convinced my friend Vinnie not to stop at Jack in the Box beforehand, nor to drive there any faster. My apologies, and regrets.

Faithfully Yours,
Lmama

John…

this has nothing to do with No Doubt…wanted to pass this band on to you and Heather. Think you’ll like them. I just recently discovered them and am really likin’ what I have heard.

And…they have a song called “Like Bacon Sundays”. How could that be bad in any way, right?

Extremely cool! I love No Doubt. I loved them from the moment I heard their music. Although Gwen S. is very talented, I think there’s an edge to the band that is somewhat lacking in her music.

Your band played with No Doubt? WOWAWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I’m stoked they are starting to record again.

“Tragic Kingdom” was my first ever CD purchase. Right after the Pocahontas soundtrack.

I was 10.

Awesome! I think you should start a new band. Leta can sing back-up (as long as the songs are about princesses) and Heather can dance around with her cool long arms.
