Pantomime
Live Sessionography
Notes: Brian recounted "threatening that Pantomime would only make it onto Goldfly over [his] dead percussionist body." The South Jersey version was originally played just as the other versions, but eventually came to be played in a more groovy style that made fun of more mainstream rockers of the 80's and 90's. |
