    There was a band named Depth Charge that played that big show at the Ogden in 1999, I saw them one last time then I heard they split. That’s nothing new. In 03’, I reunited with some guys I jammed with and they took the same name. I brought it up with them but I got outvoted because I wanted to rename us Suncager, in which I felt was far better.

    I said screw it, and to my surprise not too many people in the circuit asked me on it’s history, and I sure as hell didn’t bring it up. But I almost hate the Marlatt brothers for using Peace Love and Destruction first. You knew what was coming with a title like that! And I can vouch firsthand, a lot of women enjoyed them.
