I hate to admit it but I forgot about this band for over a decade even though I loved this album. At some point, I lost the CD. Came across the name on another video and said to myself "I seem to remember that band" All the memories of that period of my life came back at the first chord.
sub pop video network! this one was on program 3 with a classic line-up inc. eric's trip/sebadoh/seaweed/SDRE/pond/velocity girl/afghan whigs... nearly wore out the vhs tape.
As I said in a reply, I saw the Spinanes headline a show in support of their second album Strand. It's hard to believe it was over 20 years ago. I met Rebecca Gates after the show and got her autograph. She was nice about it. Good show! Still one of my favorite bands. Still sad today when they broke up.
I was at some show in Pontiac MI on top of a parking garage in.... 1995? Maybe it was afghan whigs headlining a radio station sponsored festival and she was there listening to the other bands.
I saw them on tour (I can't remember who they were opening for). They were pretty cool people and the show was good as well. It was kind of funny as Rebecca had a fairly small Marshall amp she plugged into that sat on a folding chair. Enjoyed the show a lot though.
I saw Spinanes headline a show on their Strand 2nd album tour. I don't believe it was over 20 years ago. They played a good show. I spoke with Rebecca Gates after the show and got her autograph. She was nice about it. One of my favorite groups. Still sad today they broke up.
I know. I was listening to them back in '93 i believe. That whole scene just up and vanished. Im in my late 40's now and i still blast alt rock. Horrifies my son im sure lmao
