that's right.
sadly, captain rad, the drumming man in the ramps is moving to perth, leaving the ramps drummerless.
if you are an exhibitionist, and can play drums (we're not looking for a captain rad replica) then feel free to email rampsassemble@gmail.com and check out myspace.com/aleksandtheramps so you know what you're in for.
to anyone else, please spread the word.
over and out
-a
(p.s - what could be our last show with the captain tonight at pony)
I should hope not.
I can hear you breathing over there.
And a little bit of wee came out.
oh oh oh. but captain rad is so very awesome. and he is possibly the best dancer i have ever seen.
good luck kids. hope you find someone well wicked!
Best dancer I've ever seen also. My friends and I tried to mimic him at the Great Escape all night after seeing you guys.
We couldn't.
will you be needing a new choreographer as well?
oh how sad. your drummer is rad.
I'd hit it.
the CAPTAIN of rad.
smell the glove
i think i'd be too shy to audition for you guys.
no replica? damn. i know just the fella...
textchimp?
ja.
though, truth be told, the resemblance has never been noted on the dancefloor...
mmmmmm, yeah.... gettin' the thread going again.... ahhhhhhhhh
we're not looking for a replica, because it would be sheer folly.
i don't believe one exists, we'll never find someone who dances like that, though we are after somone who is willing to shake booty in their own unique way..... who is this textchimp? the name is familiar.
textchimp would be awesome! I have no idea if he drums, though.
how do you play drums and dance?
not at the same time i hope!
actually yes - captain rad does seem to do both at once sometimes.
dang. this is sucky.
textchimp drums. DO IT
get onto loveisafist as well. if ever there was an exhibitionist...
man. does anyone remember captain rad dancing like a motherfucker to keith fullerton whitman/hrvatski at NSC last year?
loveisafist you say? perhaps i'll track him/her (presumably him) down and approach this textchimp fella. i don't remember seeing the rad dancing at NSC last year but i sure do remember him dancing to NKOTB thats for damn sure.
fisty is a girl, and yeah, get onto that!
textchimp was a joke.
but, hey...
fisty is fierce in the mosh. she will climb you.
climb?
yeah, whaddya mean, climb?
This show will probably be the last show featuring the inimitable Captain Rad, I think? Captain Rad and Black Wasp trade blows in a double-drumset sparring match this Friday in Melbourne!
