The mind and spirit of Uncle Mookie, the Man the Myth, the Legend,
the forever missed

Sounds Like
Sounds like the end of the story...but it's not. Fast forward. Past Lorenzo Lllamas, past Uncle Floyd, past Pat Sajak, past Mr. Letterman, past rehab, past five critically acclaimed albums (yes, critically acclaimed, don't believe me check. Did you check?
See I told ya), past all sorts of fun, past rehab....now STOP!!!... It's 2003...you're in your garage, shirtless in your garage, the company you've worked for has gone out of business, your best friend and your mom have died just weeks apart just weeks before, and, well, with nothing else to do on a Tuesday afternoon in August you're in your garage shirtless...when all of a sudden...there are 50, well, maybe 20, okay, more like 12 people running at you with
cameras
and microphones. Is it America's Most Wanted, as some of your neighbors think? NO! It's your old (as in long time, not geriatric) friend Richard Blade and his VH1 crew asking you to reunite for one show with the your old band, remember? the ones who also came to sunny Southern California all those years ago? The ones, some of whom you haven't played with for almost 9 years. And of course some who you talk to and play with quite frequently. Any guesses as to which two they might
be?
By Sunday it's dream time again, crowds, camera crews, swanky hoes, I mean hotels, and limousines. All goes well,
so well in fact that the guys at the way aforementioned KROQ
invite y'all to play the next month at their annual Inland Invasion concert
. Of course you all would LOVE to, it's a no brainer.....we're fast forwarding again, past 3 weeks of drama and trauma, and STOP! It's Sept. 20th... Dramarama (with all the band members mentioned in that little members box) takes the sidestage, I know, side stage sounds a bit anticlimatic, but read on...takes the side stage where 15,000, okay maybe 10,000, people have gathered to watch you perform, and perform you did! *****************PANDEMONIUM!****************** *****What choice is there but to release a new
Dramarama album. "Everybody Dies", that album
,
is NOW, yes RIGHT NOW, available at a record store near you!! At least we hope it is. If not go to Amazon.com to order your copy today. And while you're in this
Dramarama
type mood, be sure to call your favorite radio station and make some requests, of course we mean request
