We here at Sneaky Dragon Listening Party Incorporated know that you are probably spending a lot of time around the house these days with not much to do. Don’t worry. Your friends at Sneaky Dragon Listening Party are here to help. We’ve heard your requests and are producing three-hour long podcasts full of the kind of blather and pointless trivia and tidbits you have come to expect.

Tech Talk: We apologize for some drop outs in the audio this bi-week. We’re breaking in a new audio recorder and may have had our levels too low.

Department of Corections:Suzy Goodwin was actually seven years old when she recorded “Suzycide” with No Fun. She started recording with them at the age of five. Also, The Monochrome Set album Volume, Contrast, Brilliance… was released in 1983, not 1979. You were maybe wondering when Dave described a single as coming out in 1981!

The promised lyrics for The Monochrome Set’s “Avanti (Ten Don’t for Honeymooners)”:

Don’ t ski naked down Mt. EverestWith lilies up your noseDon’ t punt up the Ganges in a vestAnd holler ‘Thar she blows’
