Almost 21

About Me

The band was very short-lived (broke up in 1984 and would soon after become the rhythm section of D.I. "Horse Bites Dog Cries" phase 2) during this transition, they would bring along with them the songs: "Youth in Asia"(a Detours cover) "Stick to your guns" and (Going to) "Lebanon" (and was mainly resposible for changing D.I.'s sound from the previous E.P.) The "Almost 21 sound" is very prevelant in D.I.'s sound to date. If you didn't get a chance to catch the band at some backyard party or Elk's Club lodge or local rollerink (Billy Barty's) you missed out on a very important ingredient to the "Fullerton sound"--the beauty of the band is: They blew through town like a fucking run-away freight train (and were gone just as fast) I will be posting versions of "Youth in Asia" , "13th Black Tribe" "Crucify the Circus Clowns" and "Drowning in the Rug" and an interview here shortly (with the permission of TG BIG WHEEL MEDIA )
