So Hammerhead hired on full time at Los Alamos. Good on ya! Thanks for the update, Dr. H! I'm a local now over at Crystal River. I've converted the BTH casette to CD and still play "Leave and Die Elsewhere." Robert is a hellaciously tall guy and he always stood out in class, sleeping with his huge feet propped up on another chair, drooling on his Descendents t-shirt and barely hanging onto his matching Descendents coffee cup. He would wake up 5 minutes before class ended to correct the equation the instructor had on the board. Robert's a good mechanic, too, but my back still hurts from the broken passenger seat of his VW station wagon. My last night in Gainesville was spent at a BTH gig (the closing of that pizza shop on 13th street). I joined the band for about 3 seconds to drone "JAAAAZZZZZ ODD-UH-SSSEEEEE" into the microphone with Robert to spoof Nordlie's solo. Bitter humor, those days. I think it was all that Black Label. May you never drink such swill! Anyway, the G-ville punk scene was fun.
