Fizzle Like a Flood

January finishes up with plenty of midwinter randomness.

Contents:

- Trilety sends me a voicemail rap while I'm visiting my folks in Florida.

- I have finally submitted and joined the 'George Noory Sucks' camp.

- 'Black Darts' An old tune that came after The Laces but before FLAF. I think it was a bonus track on the very first CDRs of 'Golden Sand and the Grandstand.' Lyrical content is WAY too heavy. This was my first try at playing live cymbals along with programmed kick and snare. Not bad. At Land should have done this with reworked lyrics.

- Megan explains a 'Monet' and I give her one back.

- Viewer's Choice Win!

- Listen to my brother bust his ass one of the first times he tried to skateboard.

- Trilety's theory on the extinction of dinosaurs

- Isolated tracks from 'Halo.' Sound great on the record but I remembered hitting a bunch of bad notes and not giving an eff. Vocals cover good, huh?

- 'Kitchen Table' by North of Dean 1996

- Trilety sneaks a recording of Doug Think. The key phrase here is 'usually they just stop crying.'

- Enter Trixie and welcome her to the Fizzle Like a Flood cast. Meow, fembot!

I introduce Trilety to 'The Phantom Menace.'

Contents:

- 'Fizzle Like a Flood' by Tripmaster Monkey (7" version)

- Enter the 'disco ninja.' Please note when Trilety calls the ships that deploy the droid army 'black Snoopies.' They do look like that.

- A Moment to Hold

- Cleaning out the work fridge

- 'Killshot' acoustic tape recorder version 2005

- 'You can't scrub this out'

- Christmas eve whistling

- Final thoughts on Baby Anakin

- Brad Hoshaw performing 'Hillside' Jan 20, 2016

- The I Don't Cares enter Doug's world

Based off a Karaoke night at the Winchester in November 2015. The first night I drank after a month of no sugar.

Contents:

- 'Petunia Doug' - Todd's song for me

- Whipkey's reminiscences

- Mock up of a Fizzle album opener that would have been this + 'Sickly Sweet' (written by Travis) done Fizzle style. Opening tune called 'I Wanna Be Where You Go.' For someone, somewhere.

- Cinder, my bipolar kitty

- 'The Family Man' gets me good

- The 'stunt work' guy was just some random dude at the bar, I think.

- My tape recorder cover of The Mountain Goats song 'Jenny' 2005

- Ben opens up

Special guests: Todd! Steph! Travis! Cousin Jon! Whipkey!

This is just the 'pilot' so don't judge. However it DOES shake all the balls in the basement.
