"Virginia actually looks like a Bob Ross painting. We play (Edgar Allan) Poe's Pub and meet the weird and wonderful Cuzn Wildweed, he of the drum machine, incessant guitar wanking, whips and rubber chickens. Cuzn's sticker reads “I Like Meat” and he sends us off with a goodie bag of mason-jar moonshine and other evils" - David Bertrand, SKINNY magazine, Vancouver B.C. ... ............................................................ .... ............................................................ ......... ... .... . ..... ... ... .. . .. ............ ................ .............. ..... ..... .... ... .. "Richmond's show with the Trestlewalkers and Cuzn Wildweed was a show I'll never forget. Never. Cuzn Wildweed. My lord. Cuzn must have multiple personalities, if you believe in such a thing. This kind, soft spoken at times, honest individual plays the drone trance blues with as great a passion and as much a patience as can be said of any axe man. Then he beat the shit out of his guitar with a rubber chicken. For awhile. Like a little longer than most people appeared comfortable with it. I'm laughing. I'm sure it's on a video somewhere. I was right next to one of the guys with a camera filming it all. Cuzn. You're one of a kind." - Marty from Gravelroad, Seattle ... .... .............. ................... ............ ............ ................. ................. ............... ............... .......... .... ... ... ................ ........... ............. ......... ....... .. ..
