  1. We need a Palo Alto reunion soon. The best worst sounding most awful band in the history of Oxford. Just Kidding. I love the site music snob. I’m looking forward to the next Blue Mountain show in St. Louis.

  2. “The best worst sounding most awful band in the history of Oxford.” …classic. Mind if I use that in a review some time? I think a Palo Alto reunion would be a big hit, even if you have to do it on the sidewalk in front of Ajax.

  3. Pala Alto: The Best Worst Sounding Band in the HIstory of Oxford. Let it be known. I would be honored to be a part of that title. Better thatn no title at all.
