Hearing Bonefish Sam is like hearing the colors you see before you fall asleep, after a whole weekend of playing Nintendo (the old one). It sounds like a steady diet of processed cheese. It's like the urge to swallow mouthwash rather than spitting it out, a delicate combo of mint and alcohol. When Bonefish Sam is done playing, you suddenly feel very alone, and nothing will ever really fill that void.
Bonefish Sam and His Orchestra's Friend Space (Top 8)
Thank you Bonefish Sam! For some reason, Hoorah makes me picture self-replicating machines building a robot city while Mickey Mouse waves his magic wand. I hope that's not weird... it's a good picture. Thank you, love chad
