Way back when I was at high school (back when time was measured in epochs rather than nanoseconds) my mate Gavin’s brother Gus was a drummer in a band. It would’ve been a garage band had garages been invented back then…
Gus’s band was called ‘Snail’s Embrace’ – I was reminded of this when I noted a Snail’s Eye View of Mucus by Moonlight. Yet another cool thing about Melbourne appears to be leopard slugs. And they, on a warm summer’s evening, like to get it on. Who doesn’t? Anyway, Snail’s called ‘em ‘Ralph and Lisa’, and frankly, that refines ‘disturbing’ into a new level.
I’m not sure what Gus went on to do – engineering at a guess. We sure had a great time with music, sending down cool notes, on warm summer nights in suburbia.
