I agree! viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1149

Apparently no one else around here really does, but hey.

Weston was hilarious. I was always a little bummed when they would start to play a song, though. More between song banter, less music!

No way. They were great up to and including A Real Life Story of Teenage Rebellion. I never really got into or heard the later stuff, though. And yes, they were hilarious. They were from Bethlehem, but would play New Brunswick so often that we considered them one of our own back in the early '90s.

We played with them in Easton, PA summer of 93, and then I booked a show for them in Sacto after that.

I did not realize until many years later that I would run into a band member of Weston, Chuck, who worked at Play It Again Records in Bethlehem, PA about once a month when I stopped in to buy new releases. He and some other guy named Hans were always working there.

The first time I saw them was in maybe June or July 1993 at the Roxy in New Brunswick. I didn't have enough cash for a 7", but Dave gave me one anyway. I wish I still had that record!

Just out of curiosity, when was this?
