TEACHER'S COMMENTS

John generally plays well with the other children. Though he sometimes has trouble keeping his mouth shut, his enthusiasm is genuine. He enjoys being devil's advocate and often exhibits shockingly naive irresponsibility (red flag?). He is, however, quite punctual. Without regular medication John tends to fidget. His personal hygiene is reflexive.

Dug has a shy nature which makes him reluctant to participate in group activity. When left to his own devices he finds creative ways to pass the time. He seems to relish opportunities to surreptitiously observe others (red flag?). He likes animals and is quick to show you a picture of his dog. His personal hygiene is perpetual.

Veronica has a surly disposition masking a generous nature. Susceptible to peer pressure, she can fall in with the wrong crowd and sometimes she finds herself in over her head (red flag?). Traditional activities and old-fashioned fun bring out her strengths as an organizer. Her personal hygiene is poached.

Pinky is the most energetic student in class. This may be something to medicate, but for now we are attempting to focus her attention with the use of crackers. Her social acuity has developed far beyond her years (red flag?). Over-extending herself can result in freakishly long appendages. Her personal hygiene is snappy.

Influences

Ladies and Gentlemen. I stand before you now because I never stopped dawdling like an eight-year-old on a spring morning on his way to school.
— Dr. Hoenikker, Cat's Cradle (Kurt Vonegut)

John Frazier and the 8 Year Olds: Boogieman

Boogieman is a collection of 14 original songs by the band. It was produced and engineered by Frazier in rehearsal spaces and residences in New York and Pennsylvania. Frazier handles all the guitar work in addition to some trumpet lines and percussion accoutrements as well as lead vocals on all but one track, where the task falls to 8 Year Olds multi-instrumentalist, Pinky Weitzman, who plays viola, violin, stroh violin and musical saw on the record. Dug Winningham is on the bass guitar, makes an appearance on piano and assisted in the engineering of the record. And Veronica Olvera keeps things moving ever onward with her bouncing beats. There is also a guest appearance on accordion by Mason Brown of Not Waving But Drowning (of which John and Pinky are also members) .
