Overheard at last night's Scamper pre-production session with wonder producer/unconvincted sex offender Tom Polce:

Tom: So for this intro, you're going to have total fucking chaos and then suddenly slice it up like a fucking surgical strike of rock and roll. You guys can do that, right?
Scamper: Uh... sure.

Other than the icky surgery metaphors, the pre-pro session with Tom went just swimmingly. The new material is starting to shine like a beacon of hope in a time of despair in a valley of death on a horse with no name. It's good shit.

The next step happens this weekend when we hit the studio for Mike to bang the skins for a bit and yours truly to lay down some funky-ass bass. And of course we'll keep you up to date here on your only source for insider backstage Scamper news, the Scampernet.

In other, more hilarious news, Evel Knievel is suing Kanye West. I must admit it - I love it when old people get all worked up about shit. It just makes me giggle. And when said old person happens to be in the form of the awesomeness that is Evel Knievel? Even better. And you throw in Kanye West, a constant source of hilarity - I think we have achieved the perfect storm of comedy. Laugh at others with me, people.
