I’ve been down lately, due to my lack of a band. Little Monkeys/Crashstars has finally collapsed properly - the last gasp re-union Beach Concert was obviously not to be, and I’m fucking done with it now. The one thing I’ll say about that - and this is a direct appeal to Jon E. Crash himself [...]

Apparently being in a band and even doing one gig a year is too much to ask. The whole thing’s gone tits in the air again.
