Unlike the mighty surging Red Sox, Scamper's competitive efforts were stopped short in just the first round of the Boston Herald Rock the Hub tournament. We were soundly trounced by the Sterns, making the dream "Scamper vs. New Kids" battle an impossibility. A single tear is running down the cheeks of teeny boppers everywhere.
It's truly a sad day when you lose in a contest you didn't even enter. It's sort of like the old Mitch Hedberg joke about opening a soda bottle and seeing "Sorry, Try Again" on the bottle cap. "I didn't even know I was playing."
On the upside, our tragic loss in this contest did bring about an upside - a rare public statement from Scamper's reclusive frontman Keith Michel:
"I want to thank everyone who voted for us, and say that I am just happy to a part of something this special."
Can't you just smell the sincerity, folks?
