The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars ------------------Jack Kerouac
Not exactly subtle in their delivery, Edmonton’s Jay Sparrow and band play whiskey-soaked "Texas punk" odes to their own demons. On their new album, produced by Gordie Johnson of Big Sugar fame and recorded at Willie Nelson’s own studio in Austin Texas, the Sparrows mix the red-headed stranger’s storytelling with plenty of fire and energy. |

Theres also a negative side." - Hunter S. Thompson Sounds Like: fuck you, sex, skinned knees etc. "It has, moreover, been proven that horror, nastiness, and the frightful are what give pleasure when one fornicates.
