Personal Writing: On My Time


The best and worst two days of my life took place at Bogarts with
my band Radioactive Weasel last month. We had practiced daily for near
three years, and our group decided to pull together again and enter "The
Battle of the Bands." This was the first time we sparingly paid fifty
dollars to perform anywhere. All the other competitions we had entered were
