BEST FWENDS / GERTY FARISH
"HOSPITAL PARTY" CASSETTE!

we spent the chilly month of January 2007 living in a crawl-space of a warehouse in Brooklyn. we played many amazing shows and somehow (magic? FATE?) we were privileged to meet and record with one of our favorite bands of all time, Gerty Farish .
the four of us "borrowed" (yoink!) a key to the shared practice space of Parts & Labor and Matt & Kim and jammed on their instruments all day and night for 2 days before being kicked out so the other bands could "practice". the resulting 9 songs are very strange, melodic, trashy but sincere. and possibly shouldn't be heard by the general public.
THE PLAYERS:
John Donahue - Wayne's World guitar, observational vocalism
Jess Daniels - Casio MT-540, bubonic mewling, polite laughter
Dustin Pilkington - riff construction, note-player of all schools, vocal spirit channeller
Anthony Davis - disco bass on one song, MPC-2000 finger-blast-beats, homeless man voice
