More early 80s for me

http://youtu.be/fUmfQTXotR0 this is the best Butch & the Buckheads I can find. I remeber them being less of an oldies band back then but it could have been the 64 oz "Ed" for $1of beer that I spent 5-6 $ on

These guys crashed with us out at Thornhill after one gig

speaking of older local bands, anybody remember Glass Moon?


Apr 29, 2014, 6:28 PM

don't know of a Clemson connection, but saw them in Charlotte at some bar on South Blvd late 70's-early 80's.
They had tip-top covers of Genesis-Lamb Lies Down on Broadway and Zep's Stairway to Heaven during the period I saw them.

I HAD to serve you beers at Edgar's.

Butch and The Buckheads are still around.

I used to stay in touch with Jeff Calder with the Swimming Pool Q's but haven't talked to him in many years now. They're still around too.

When I lived in the Rock House out in Six Mile, quite a few bands that played Edgar's crashed at my house. David Arnson from the Insect Surfers is about the only I've stayed in touch with.

The fact that the Killer Whales are conspicuously absent from this list is shameful. They were an Edgar's staple. I chat with Murphy Pitts on Facebook once in a blue moon.

And finally, no mention of The Projectors? Probably not...it was the first band I ever played in and we only played Edgar's once.

Killer Whales - thats the other band I was trying to remembe


Apr 29, 2014, 10:08 PM

I was the skinny geek that drank copious amounts of Lowenbrau dark from 80-85

Nothing quite like a morning after lo dark poop

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cravin'_Melon

History[edit]
Cravin' Melon was formed at Clemson University in 1994 after the dissolution of two other local South Carolina bands, Doghouse and The Next Move.[1] The band gained popularity on the regional live scene, and after a self-pressed EP and full-length, they signed to Mercury Records and released Red Clay Harvest, in 1997. The album spawned a minor radio hit, "Come Undone", which peaked at #37 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart.[2] The band's style and geographical roots prompted frequent comparisons to contemporaries and tourmates Hootie & the Blowfish and Edwin McCain.[3] After a 1998 EP, the band was dropped from the label and recorded a final LP in 2000 before breaking up on May 19, 2001; a double live CD of one of their last performances was subsequently released.[4] The band reunited in 2008 for a reunion tour that went very well. They are continuing to do shows in 2010. Lead singer Doug Jones released a solo album in 2007 Doug Jones Everybody Doug Jones. At their December 26, 2009 concert at the Wild Wing Cafe in Greenville, SC, the band announced plans to make a new album in the near future. The band has recently regained some of its past regional popularity, headlining several events including the 2010 Rock Hill, SC 4 July Festival, the 2010 and 2011 Virginia Cantaloupe Festival.

Members[edit]

you sound like a fool.

I was just kidding originally. Now you want to fight over it? But you're NOT a red neck?

If you're not a red neck, you sure do sound like one.

Folks call each other a lot worse in here all of the time. You need to buck up and grow some thicker skin.
