Flying off ... Toward Distant Suns
Brad Baker has always been fond of Fresno's punk/underground scene -- remembers Plaid Retina opening a show for Victims Family back in the day, which is to say the early '90s.

Alright. This dude, David Liebe Hart, is kinda hard to explain. If you were a regular watcher of the Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job! on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, you know who he is. David is a puppeteer, musician and maybe a little creepy. But he's also this sorta cult/punk rock personality. Basically because maybe he doesn't quite get...- May042011
