Crash Test Dummies?

[kalifire]

Reforming this month for a 25th anniversary tour of 'God Shuffled His Feet', playing it in full each gig. US tour dates through to end of January.

Any appetite here?

I'm not sure if they count as a 'guilty pleasure' or not, but I loved that album. Would be great to see them play at the farm!

Interesting, where do think they would play if they did?

loved the album at the time. Not sure it will have stood up well to time tho.

Did you know it was produced by Jerry Harrison? (he's the guy from Talking Heads that no one knows).

They really did feel like the biggest band in the world for a very brief moment. Struggling to think where they’d place and what kind of interest they’d generate over here now.

Only know the one song but it's a cracker.

Yeah, I only know that one song. Resisting the temptation to use it in a post. I won't be that person.

Yeah I nearly did!

I'm not shy to say I would be all over that, and I'll be checking for UK tour dates.  I played that album to death at the time

The Untitled piano piece at the end is lovely.

[Stocksey]

It is a cracker of an album. I even play it from time to time now.  i think lyrics like the following stand the test of time pretty well

"And when you let me taste your fingers
I take them like fruit and as I linger I
Wonder if my seed will find purchase in your soil ..."

[henry bear]

Saw them at Phoenix Festival 1994, rather enjoyed them too - would be up for this.

Good grief.

i know right... I was 11 when that album was released, pretty sure i had no idea what this was referring to? 

Also looking back an interesting choice to released as the second single???

YES, I was listening to that album just the other day. 

[Stokesy10]

Blast from the past! They feature in the soundtrack of the greatest comedy film of all time, Dumb & Dumber ?

Surprised you get a signal to read it from up there in your lofty towers, Woffy

[Quark]

He's reading it in an ironic way Kali. So that's fine.

Anyway I must go now.  I'm having @Woffy for dinner...

Let me just dismount from my enormous steed for a moment...

...I have no issue with Counting Crows or whatever they’re called. But:

’Biggest band in the world for a moment’

And:

Dumb & Dumber - greatest comedy of all time. 

 

Oh god, notification from Quark incoming. Let me strap in... ?
