Hear me when I tell you that No Small Children is a force with which to be reckoned (that’s literary speak for “force to be reckoned with”, sports fans). Solid music, good vids and a dedication to doing music the way they want, and they’re schoolteachers by day! I mean, I had my fantasies about my teachers, but if they had played in a band?!!! I don’t know if I would have made it through. This time around, they pull a handful of punches aimed at old music vids and have me rolling on the floor laughing. I would tell you that they are, but why should I? You have a mouse and (hopefully) a hand with which to operate it. Click on the video below and treat yourself.

I had every intention of starting up the long and windy story about the band I was in following my stint with Swindled in the early 1980s as a teenage punk rocker. Moving Targetz lasted 9 years, released two albums and five EPs, and robbed 50+ musicians of their will to live. It’s going to take the better part of this year to tell the tale. The story will have to wait.
This week a musical associate, whom I’ve known casually for about a decade, passed away after a seemingly abbreviated battle with cancer. His name was Rick Gunn.
