blog of the lead singer from soul coughing. good rando stuff. was reminded of this band by reading down through my blog. made me think of spring break from first year of business school (which would be march of 1999) when i drove down to key west alone. everyone else was going on trips together to cancun, moustique, etc...i remember driving down to key west kinda bummed and alone and listening to the soul coughing album ruby vroom and the foo fighters album that has everlong on it (can't remember name right now). i camped out in a KOA from the trunk of my Jetta. i forgot my cooler so i had to stash all my food in a big Rubbermaid bin that had no insulation. a bunch of rando weirdos in the campground (some hippie college chicks from up north, some frat brain 30-ish dudes, one of whom was a PI and had been fishing with his buddies and fed us a warm-water lobster he caught and some chick who had come there with two other dudes) sat around a fire, and the hippie chicks sang and played guitar, and the one who sang could sing REALLY well, sort of like Ani DiFranco. The chick who had come down with two other dudes slept in my tent, which ended up being more uncomfortable and tedious than fun. And the next morning when I woke up, I discovered that I had left out the Rubbermaid bin and racoons had got into it and eaten my chicken. So I had no more food, and decided that the scene was a bust and hit the road back up north that day. I also had no more money.
Don't know how I got going on this...
