#8 Zoom
Saturday, August 8th, 2009I bought this record again in Lawrence Kansas. I saw there name on a flyer as well. Thought the name deserved a listen. Its funny…this 7″ reminded me of the girl I met at debate camp. I think it may have been my first true love. Her name was Susy. Funny. She lived in the Houston area. Her parents both worked at NASA. Really smart and cool people. I went and visited one summer. I decided to drive there on a whim. So I packed up my Mazda 323 with very little and drove straight from Omaha to Houston. It was really a great trip. I remember getting to Texas and being pretty delirious and seeing some huge statue of Paul Bunyan. It may have been my imagination I’m not sure. But I ended up getting to her house at like 4 in the morning so I just slept in my car parked in the driveway. I’m not sure why I’m telling this story other than maybe just for my own sake or remembering it.
So here is Zoom. Ends up the song is pretty boring. Oh and another funny note. Is I played for a short while in this band from Sioux CIty called Trike Press. Pretty good band. But anyway we covered this song. So here it is. PLANET PINBALL.
