If only the show were Satan's Pilgrims with special guests Slacktone,
The Bambi Molesters, The Nebulas, The Surf Coasters, and the Space
Cossacks but I would settle for the Madeira instead of the Cossacks.
Good thing I live in Seattle since that will never happen.

I don't care if it's Slacktone, that's purdy high. You could buy all
the SP rare recordings on Ebay for that price. You could buy a guitar
for that price and learn all their songs. And if the SP's
reformation is a success, I'm guessing they will end up down here
before long. The Surfcoasters made it from Japan...Hey Ferenc, you ol'
scene-maker you....
