Believe me, I’m just as surprised as you. Initially, I’d wanted a reason to post these entertaining pictures Nikki took of the band that followed Julie Doiron at Cake Shop. Then I stumbled upon “High And Free” nestled between noise and noisier on The UZI RASH Group Band’s Myspace page.

The group put on quite a show, costumes aside. “High And Free” screams of Charlie McAlister (more on him later) so loudly I could swear the track was off Mississippi Luau.

This, people, is a monstrous compliment.

The rest of The UZI RASH Group Band’s music sounds nothing like this track, which is strange considering one of their blog entries describes the song as follows:

Fucking high and free, my man. yeah, thats the ticket, an otherworldly endorsement of our animist/pagan far left revolutionary nature trip. fucking hippy.

So…there’s that. Give “High And Free” a listen. Watch out for dinosaurs.
