From a primus concert i went to last november: "Many years ago, one of my very very good friends, who i used to hang it with just about every single day. All of a sudden i didnt see him very often, and i thought "oh im busy, hes busy" thats kind of the way it goes with friends sometiems. Well every sunday we used to go to this place in Berkley called Napoleons Bakery. And so he showed up there with some individual who was a little bit strange. And he was very thin and very gaunt, he said hed been "fasting". S i said ok. In actuality, he was strung out on Cracked Cocaine" Harold, the obvious friend of Swamper and Greeny, who showed them the "rocks". "Im lit up like an old christmas tree" --obviously high on crack.
