Santa Monica

Santa Monica by Everclear

I first heard Everclear in high school. They were fine. I didn’t think much of them, and still today, I don’t think much of them. This song is good and probably the only song that they ever really brought to the table. I guess the lead singer was sort of big in the late 90s on MTV since these guys didn’t completely suck. And now that I think about it, this was sort of like pop grunges last stand... anyway what really gets me is the name of the band… Everclear? Really guys? Isn’t everclear like the most disgusting thing anyone can drink? I guess at 16 not everyone knows about everclear (well compared to gin, whiskey, and vodka). But still, I think Everclear would be one of the last names I’d ever choose for a band.

(Note, no one may have noticed… but I was away this weekend which is why I missed a day and the posts seemed half assed, sorry).

    I think Day-Glo Abortions would be the worst name to pick for a band (and there is actually a local band of that name in Kingston).

    Ewh. Day-glo Abortions is pretty gross. Let me guess the band is comprised of a bunch of 23 year olds males who think they are SOOOO original!!!!!

    But what I really want to know is what your band would be named Helen?
