(The
American singer-guitarist-songwriter came to Europe 10 years ago and left
in 1996.)

(Together
with Chris, the German born Greek drummer, he formed the band in 1991.)

There were bass players...
like Johnny Veliki and Goldmouth...
The one who lasted longest was
(With
Antonis the bass player
SCARECROW
DREAMING
released
their debut album as a trio.) |
Maybe he was too young to know...
Then one day there was a new guy...
He was the one to to lead them to the
new millennium...
(In
early 1995, Stelios the lead guitarist
became
the fourth member of the band.) |
To tell the truth,
nobody really knows...
There are rumors
that they died a horrible death...
like so many Rock bands did...in silence,
soundless, in anger...
and self - pity.
Other rumors say
that they committed suicide after arguing in front
of a major record company's A&R manager,
when being asked to make
minor changes to their new CD, like new
songs, lyrics, musicians, singers, drummers, guitar - and bass players.
The most horrible rumor says, they were...taken
away by them aliens in a huge
space ship when posing for photos for
the new CD. The photographer was never
seen again too, but there was a peace
of marble stone burnt to glass in the shape of
his...sorry. It's unbelievable...his camera
was found forty meters apart from this rock, well see for yourself

Some fanatic Christians
say they were hit by lightning and fry in hell because
of their song "My God Is Dead".
There is even a hearsay
about rumors that they are still alive and well...
playing in the nirvana of their penniless
producer's weeping mind...
Patrick playing his
guitar thinking of his countless Greek girl friends
and writing his poems and short stories,
the outcry of pain about the
frightening fact of being 33 years old
and having missed ...
whatever...
Chris hitting his
drumheads better than ever giving in to his
more commercial attitude towards punk
culture, forgetting
Germany and the Germans...
Antonis playing his
bass always with the mind of a DJ... open to everything
new to be heard, to be seen, to be felt,
happy not to be yelled at by Chris...
not to be told how and when and what to
play by Patrick...
Stelios playing his
wahwah together with Chris in a new formation ( Greek...
for Greeks ) ... happy as always...
anyway...
(Energetic,
more mature sounding than the songs from "Fish",
the
new CD "Dead Pumpkin with a Hat")
|
A huge wall of distorted
guitar sound with little holes
for voice and drums to peak
through, a bass which
plays, but plays like a
guitar and always plays
second role, painful sarcastic
lyrics
giving proof of our century
of
wars and tears.
Scarecrow Dreaming
We love you!
