Optiganally Yours

Now, now I remember what it's like to breathe.
A lot of people don't know this, but Gepetto had an existential crisis when he was in the belly of the whale. His lengthy isolation engendered a willingness to confront his feelings of inadequacy and incompetence, not to mention the lack of any truly intimate connections that pervaded his life. During his confinement, he discovered the value of ass shakin' and I'm pretty sure he learned the practice of insight meditation. You probably didn't know any of this since you probably don't know the first thing about puppetry.
Optiganally Yours = Pea Hix on the Talentmaker and Rob Crow (of Pinback) on the vox. We haven't heard much from them lately and this is beginning to worry me.

so here is an awkward story-i saw pinback last week and at the merch table afterward, i picked up the Optigonally Yours CD and said to my friend-i like these guys but why are they selling this here? no wonder the girl behind the table looked at me like-hello dumb.Posted by: CB at June 2, 2005 02:34 PM
i love how you're supposed to do your due dilligence on band geneology if you want to have any hope of being considered cool by indies who are really just a bunch of intelligent obsessive-compulsive cry babies.Posted by: jimweed at June 2, 2005 02:56 PM
