Squash Yer Troubles!
Huge show about curcubita last night on KCFS 94.5, though I do wish I could have tracked down a few more rock-n-roll tunes about squash. The critics are going to chew us up and spit us out over that one, as if our little radio show was nothing more than some under cooked warted hubbard squash, which really isn’t all that bad if you can believe it. Some high points from the show: a sonic adventure to Squash Mosh 2010, haiku poetry, we defined the term squarsh, and the Rock Garden Tour Family Band performed a tune inspired by the sunshine squash (see above), the show also featured some intense free range rock and roll (see below).
