For Throwback Thursday: TTC
Cathy Allman is going laugh at this one.
Circa 1983 or so: The Trial Continues at Carleton University’s Roosters. Chris Benner on skins, Mel Kennedy on keys, and some pale and skinny goof on strings.
That’s Harold Hoefle up front, believe it or not. And yes, you could smoke pretty much everywhere in those days.
Why was SCTV’s Mel’s Rock Pile the first thing that came to my mind?
Funny you brought that up – I thought the same thing, which instantly brought to mind the best SCTV skit ever:

I hate the bloody Queen
She makes me go to school
She taxes me to death
I can’t buy me dope
(whodathunk a “punk band” would mix elements of conservative and liberal policy in one verse?)

Umm, are those 3 people on the left dancing or running away?
Ha! Probably the latter.
Is that the same P-bass you were playing up to a few years ago?
Yep
My son goes to Carleton (International Affairs). Doesn’t seem to have changed a bit 🙂
“Never quit your day job.” That was the best advise I got during my 15 second music career.
