I’ve seen countless shows there from the age 15 onward. One story that really sticks out was at Sebadoh in ’94 or ’95. They were my favorite band at the time, and I was super-excited. As I walked in, [frontman] Lou Barlow asked me where the bathroom was. I was star-struck. I had never been backstage at that point, but I had seen a door near the front entrance that staff were always going in and out of. I assumed it was the rock-star/staff bathroom and excitedly pointed him in that direction.
Seconds later, he was running away from security who were trying to find out what he was doing in an unauthorized room. When they took the stage, Lou was in a terrible mood. The show was rocky for 15 minutes and, after a meltdown, Lou huffed off stage. It was over just as it was starting. I was directly responsible, and I was mortified but still found it hilarious.
That’s the last time I ever got star-struck. We’re all just looking for the bathroom, man.

I’ve been re-posting this like crazy today because I’m so proud of it! FREE DOWNLOAD of Gayngs and I covering George Michael’s “One More Try”. Please forward to your friends. Ladies are gonna freak out.


“We’re doing a George Michael cover, “One More Try” with Har Mar Superstar. I’m trying to put out a 7″ with the George Michael cover on one side and on the other a Bones Thugs ‘n’ Harmony remix,” Gayng’s Ryan Olson explains. “Most reviews of Gayngs or the album seem to reference George Michael so we thought it’d be cute to put it out. When can you hear it? We’re not a real band, so there’s no rush for us to do anything at all.” The cover of ‘One More Try’ will follow Gayngs’ take on Godley & Creme’s “Cry,” a highlight of their debut album, “Relayted.”
Would Gayngs like to to work with Michael? “Maybe he could do a duet with Har Mar Superstar. That’d be amazing. Har Mar killed it though, he did a really good job.”
WAMplified! at The Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis was a blast. The PBR Tall Boys were flowing. Thank you so much, everyone!
