Spot 1019 - Milkbomb!

The late great odd ball Joe Sloan composed immersively poignant and impressively pungent poetry for his band Spot 1019. This track was featured on their 1986 debut LP that was first issued by Pitch-A-Tent records, and later after the Rough Trade bankruptcy in 1990, was reissued by Frontier.
Shortly after attending Joe's memorial, I was inspired to assemble this 1:1 ratio home made ( actually bus made ) fan video for Milkbomb! The song Milkbomb! WAS recorded in Tempe Arizona back when Ronald Reagan was President and mixed at Different Fur studios on 19th St at Valencia in da Mission back when Feinstein was mayor. The debut album SPOT 1019 was re-released digitally in June 2024 via BandCamp here: spot1019.bandc...

When you #DanceLikeMadonna
You #DriveAllTheBoysWild
You look like woman
But you #ActLikeAChild
All the #barbecues #BurstIntoFlames
When you walk down the street
Your purely #ElasticEmotion
#MakeLivingComplete
Milkbomb!
Your mama's a taxi
Your daddy a clerk
The #AirConditioning keeps them from aging
When they get home from work
Your #WarmDietPepsi
Your #PowerfulDope
The sweet sticky smell of #baloney and #IvorySoap
But all the #IceCreamAndCoffee, all the steaks and #souffles
Cannot ever make you forsake your #PrimitiveWays
Milkbomb!
It's #SixInTheMorning
We've got #DaffyandBugs
But the real reason, baby
That you're still awake is
Your #ExpensiveDrugs
I must be #YourMonkey
I will be #YourClown
Strap me to the back of your scooter
And #DragMe through town
Milkbomb!

Miss this band and wish the catalog was on Spotfiy :-(

In my top 10 bands of all time. A verry nice tribute and ...a great video! I really appreciate it. I would do a video for Dinky...or True Story if you did another. We could get a thousand views! If we market them just right.
