“Strange Tales From The Doc” #25 This weeks \u201cStrange Tales\u201d is about the time my wife Crystal and I appeared on the cover (well kinda) of the 1993 Creamers cd \u201cHurry Up and Wait\u201d. The Creamers<\/a> were a late 1980\u2019s L.A. based punk band. They are actually the first full length release, entitled \u201cLove, Honor, Obey\u201d by the legendary Sympathy Records<\/a>. That lp is still a killer release and one that flew under the radar by most. If you see it, GET IT! Female fronted Punk Rock<\/a> plain and simple. [plus they put on an awesome live gig too].<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
For some time The Creamers were a band that we would see often and actually became friendly with. My old buddy Louis Beso became very close to the drummer Bob [no, not like \u201cthat\u201d just good friends. They were both painters] so we always knew when and where they were playing. The Creamers had an idea for their upcoming full length \u201cHurry Up and Wait\u201d and needed some \u201cbodies\u201d for a photo shoot. Crystal and I plus Louis and his wife Tina, their son Devon, Tim from The Mr T Experience<\/a> and a spattering of others showed up to the \u201clovely\u201d city of Willmington, Ca and stood wait at a barely used bus stop, while watching our backs, for this photo shoot.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Now you may remember [if you have ANY memory retention<\/a>] I said we were on the cover of the cd \u201ckinda\u201d? Remember that? I\u2019ll take a minute for you to re-read the FIRST sentence..Done? Good! Either we (me not Crystal) weren\u2019t deemed good looking enough or maybe we were (Crystal not me) TO good looking, but we were \u201cfolded\u201d and ended up on the other side of the fold (inside the cover). I\u2019m the one with the fishing hat and Crystal is that Big Dope with the funny smile on her face. Why does she still look the same 20 years later?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We lost touch with The Creamers. The bassist Andi later went into to form the band Snap-Her but as far as the others go, I\u2019m not sure. We\u2019ll always have the good memories of a great band though! Until next time guys!<\/div>\n
