THE SIDEBAR

Fun aside: You all know how much I loathe and detest the incouragable Andy Hicks. (Recent IM conversation- paraphrased from memory) Andy: Whatchya doin'? Japhy: Drinking soymilk. Andy: Decided to go vegan? Japhy: Nope. Lactose intolerant. Andy: Well, I guess that's the trendy thing to do in the Big City. Japhy: Be lactose intolerant? Andy: Yup. (pause) Andy: I'm licorice intolerant. Well, I'm biased. Here's an account by a former bandmate of Andy about the rise and fall of their indie heart-rock band Soma. It presents a softer side to Andy, which I am unable to provide, him being my former high school rival and all. If you don't give two cents about my rivalry with Andy (which I understand), you still may want to read the article, if only to get a sense of how grandiloquent garage band musicians can get about their work. The Beatles never had it as bad.
