Back at the turn of the last century there was saying amongst the rugged men who pined the mountains of frozen Northern Alaska. It wasn't a very good saying so I won't bother to repeat it here. What I will tell you about is a fabulous new band from the swinging South of Poncey District.
These four lads named THE BURMESE CRUSH have taken this town by storm and turned old-time high society on it's ear. All they have left in their wake are fingers at their snappin'est and toes at their tappin'est. It's a happening in the streets of Mclendon Square tonight.
Their first single "TOMORROW AIN'T OVER YET" broke all sales records at Findley Plaza and soon spread all across the lower east Euclid Avenue Area. Never has there been this much excitement in the district and it's been said that even old man Findley rolled over in his grave to do "THE CRUSH". This dance craze began with the release of the band's second single and the group's anthem "(SHE'S GIVING ME) THE BURMESE CRUSH"
Advance orders for this disc swamped every record store in the area and firmly planted the band on the "NEXT BIG THING" list in every newspaper from THE CANDLER PARK MESSENGER to the EPWORTH CITY REVIEW. The sky appears to be the limit for these fresh faced youngsters and there is an electricity in the air not seen in these parts in many years.
As THE BURMESE CRUSH goes into the studio to record their first long player the sessions are clouded with mystery. No press reports have been released and the public is rabidly and eagerly anticipating the sounds the band will produce. Security is tight and most nights there is a crowd gathered around BENNING PLACE SOUND SYSTEMS where the group has been holed up for the past few weeks. Crowds of fans surround the building in hopes of catching a glimpse of their favorite band member.
