Hard to believe it's been so long since Jerry was killed. To this day, Gaunt is a regular player on my turntable....I'm lucky that I got to see you guys on several occasions in NYC. You guys will always be one of the best.
Don't forget----- ***THIS SATURDAY*** @ 8pm @ Skullys (1151 N. High St. Columbus OH 43201) COME SEE US, THE BRIGHT LIFE, AMAIA, CITY LIGHTS & THIS IS MY SUITCASE!
IT IS ONLY $5 TO GET IN AND IS AN ALL AGES SHOW! SEE YOU THERE!
hey! thank ya for adding me...... "i can see your mom from here" still kicks my butt seriously everytime i listen to it, so if yer still active, i hope you tour berlin, germany some day......stay wild!!!
We were the kids that set up that Chillicothe show. That was seriously one of the coolest things that I've ever seen. I couldn't believe Gaunt would actually drive all the way there to play in a park for a bunch of 15 year olds. I learned a lot about how to be a good band that day. Thanks Gaunt.
The Buzzcocks were playing Manhattan last night, but I sat in a local Brooklyn bar listening to the Buzzcocks playing over the bar, thinking about Jerry telling me some of his favorite Buzzcocks lyrics. And just swilling Stella Artois and listening to Jerry's ghost was no doubt better than the Buzzcocks' show. Or not. Jerry probably would've been at the show. Miss ya, Jerry.
I saw gaunt numerous times, but think the best nite was on a Gazeebo in Chilicothee. I guess some of the local kids there put the show together. The kids treated gaunt like rock stars, and they gave back like they were. I could see Jerry feed off the young not yet cynical scenester vibes coming from the crowd.
I got the pleasure of hanging out and just b.s.ing with them at some dive around the corner for a couple of hours. One of the best nites of my life.
