Cringe.com: Interview with a Bigfoot (1998)

Issue 8.1, Winter 1998
The interview took place at Larry's Bar & Grill a few weeks ago. Bigfoot is David Bleveans-Holm, Melanie Bleveans-Holm, Bill Clark, Brad Swiniarski and the occasional Rhodes player, most recently Jonathan Beard. Their CD Sleepwalk was released in late 1996. Dave and Melanie are married to each other. As a fan I was hoping to offer them a platform to discuss whatever and I hope the questions provoked some good conversation. 
Dave is a little gun shy. We briefly joke about his nervousness for interviews. We settle in to a booth and hit play. Portishead joins us from the jukebox. 
Can you give me a brief history of the current band line-up? 
Dave - The first thing that happened was Jeff Clowdus, our previous second guitar player, decided to move to NM. Bill had been sitting in and playing some pedal steel on a few songs and he was incorporated into the group as a full member. [Jeff Wood decided not to continue playing. Jon Beard came in about 6 months later.] 
With an uncanny appropriateness imagine one of Larry's drunks singing "on the good ship, lollipop ..."

Website: Columbus Watering Holes

Little bit off regular posting schedule, I recently found this website: Columbus Watering Holes. It's an ode to bars gone by and current places to bend an elbow. In the "defunct" section, you can get shirts featuring Bernie's, Mean Mr. Mustard's, Larry's and more.
