Overman from Kalamazoo - Sounds like Nomeansno, All, Dagnasty, Replacements

Posted by: Jeff on 12-09-09:

Hi Craniac,

No, it's not a secret but rather just never discussed. There's a great sign heading on the cape that says "Mashpee Sandwich" (an exit for two cape towns) and I always thought that sounded like a terrible lunch item. It may have even been the original first name.

Thanks for checking out Brambles. Pass it along to others! THanks!

Wait! He didn't write to me; I copied that part, obviously. Crummy system removed spaces...just clarifying.

Fellow BRENT OBERLIN wrote to tell me he's the first one to know where the name "Mashpee" came from. Good job Brent! (pretty sure I know, too.)It's a secret? Even from Him? "Brambles" is killer, btw.

In response to: Bill Millmine on 09-29-09 for Rollinghead

I use to work with Dave Grant at the KIA and watch Rollinghead/Deadriverdrag play at Club-Soda all the time. Rollinghead is one of my most listend to cd's still today. I wish I could have been there to see them again.

I played Bass for the Bremmens and have a lot of fond memories of the music scene back in the day.

We would be kickin in walls at Lovell street house to Thought Industry, then be trippin at the God Bullies place and end up toaking our way back Oak street to jam with Maureen and Adam and the Bremmens clan all night long.

I'm going to have to get back to Kazoo sometime. --- end of previous message ---

john, i've woken up with years gone and no memories of what transpired. if you remember the 90's you weren't there i suppose. and especially the late great 80's. anyway, no harm done. i just cringe when i see my name mentioned in anything really. as if i didn't already have an entire lifetime of embarrassing moments to live down. didn't realize you were a band manager tho. interesting.

Before Overman, Craig and Jeff had a little rock and roll outfit called "Cry". Cry featured Alamaman guitarist George Grandenetti, who had a mustache and a flying V.

Cry played about 10 shows or so. Cry lost a battle of the bands to Johnny with an Eye, who later grew up to be pop sensations "the Verve Pipe". Cry just grew up to be Overman. It was in Cry where Craig would yell a hearty "Why" during our non-hit, "Independance Day". This flyer is nothing great, but it was for Cry's first show. We played with "Babes in Toyland", right when it was hip to be a girl grunge band.

Although we were not that hot, we got to play with one of my favorite bands, "ALL". All used to be the Decendents and then became ALL. We tried to sound just like ALL everytime we could. This was a fine honor.

Before Cry Craig and I had a band called "Common Ground" who played one Battle of the Bands thrown by a bunch of foreigners at college. Greg Davis, I think, was the guitarist. Greg used to be the bassist in Detroit favorites "Snake Out", who released there awesome album "Live Pizza". Snake Out played kook rock. Because of Greg's involvement we added a surf tune, "ramrod", to the set.

Common Ground actually started with guitar player Chuck Wood, who left before the very first show for some reason. Chuck eventually went on to play with Fugazi-esque bands Firesale, Vine and Jack Red Cloud. This flyer was from my band when I was sixteen, "The Blind Mice", which featured Chuck and myself, along with Al Wiseman. These lovely high school days also had the bands Cannible Cafe and Thirteen Stories, all who got to play one show and featured primarily Chuck, Al, myself young drummer Karl Faulhabber. I think Karl went on to play with Al's little brother, Beans, in a band called Fig. Beans and Fig. Goddamn.
