Firebreathing and Clowns
Blort was dressing up as clowns as early as 1992, way before Insane Clown Posse made it hip. I did this firebreathing act throughout the tour.

Tom Churchill and Chuck pose with a bum
Because the bum passed out so long he's gotten a sunburn. Tom Churchill was our bassist and was killed by a drunk driver in Texas after the tour. Vancouver is the only city with a monument of a bum, named "Gassy Jack." Ironically, Tom thought this was really funny.

Punk Rock Sidewalk Chalk
"...And she wouldn't give it to me. Just one Pepsi." --Suicidal Tendencies. This roadie girl went on the tour with us.

On tour, wearing my favorite hat which says, "You have the right to remain silent. Forever."
Canadian customs was the worst. Blort was always clowning around, though. Tom wanted to be a stand-up comic. We had a laugh when I asked the customs agent if he really wanted to know what corn starch in the van was used for. They said, "Yeah," I answered, "To prevent chafing in the ass-crack." And he said, "Okay, you can go ahead now." Finally. Summertime was hot and sweaty. I always sang so loud. The right to remain silent, but the choice to scream loud, too. Punk rock.

These are photos taken in Vancouver while my band Blort was on tour We drove all the way from Austin, Texas to the west coast, as far north as Vancouver, Canada, and as far south as San Francisco. In Vancouver, among other places, we stayed with friends connected with Psychic TV.
