Cause & Effect

They were a band once.  Maybe they still are.  I don't know.  I'd go see them if they played a show nearby. And it was cheap.  Like $18 cheap.  Anything more than that and I'm out.  But anyway.  
They had a hit.  And I liked it (Thanks, Katy Perry).  


A very good friend of mine who's much smarter than I am suggested I start a blog.  At said person's request, coupled with my current station in life, I'm going to do so, or, at least, continue with the one I started but abandoned shortly thereafter.

Back to Cause & Effect, and more on my smart friend later.  I went to Camelot Music in 1992 and had saved up a month's worth of allowance to buy 2 cd's.  Here's what I bought:

1. Cause & Effect / Another Minute
2. Pearl Jam / Ten

*As an aside, I just googled Cause & Effect and they're still around and are playing in Seattle next month.  Pre-sale tickets are $15.  Sadly, I do not live in Seattle.  

Back to my point, which was...I actually liked Cause & Effect better at first.  True.  I thought the songs were catchier and I was annoyed by how much Pearl Jam songs would slow down.  Even Alive & Porch.

I know nobody cares about this stuff but me.  Thanks for sticking with the post.  It could be worse.  I could be telling you this in person.
