I'd like to begin by quoting Eddie Grant himself:  "Good God! .... Oh No!" 

Can't we just close down Electric Avenue?  Send Occupy Oakland in there or something.

I think they are from SC, which isn't technically the Bay Area, but I understand your point somewhat. 

Do you mean it has sucked throughout its history?  or it sucks just right now?  (or back in 83?)

Congrats, rad!

I think throughout its history, T-Cat. The best bands in the Bay Area just don't stack up well against those from many other areas. But lately, whoa . . . local heroes Cake and Smashmouth? That just gives me the heebadee jeebies.
