Stinson Blvd. [Explicit Lyrics]
Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
June 1st, 1988 1 am. We're sitting in my graffiti covered Monte Carlo at 24 and Blaisdel. We have two 1 gallon jugs of keg beer from a party sloshing around on the floor. I just ran a red and the cops have pulled us over. Me, John, Bob and Chris. The policeman walks up to my window to give me back my license "You're living on borrowed time, get lost" he says and flips the plastic card at me. We had just picked up Chris "the cub" Corbett moments earlier at MCAD. John knew him from art school and told Bob and I that this kid could play bass. We went into the basement of Uptown Pizza and played all night. Bob, John and I had been hanging around together since '85 and had been jamming with him before his departure from the Replacements. Now we were four. Now we were Static Taxi. The next few weeks were spent in the musician's greenroom in the Minneapolis Art Institute. When that free ride expired, we were forced to find a place of our own. John got a hold of a guy in the classifieds by the name of Ed Larson. He had an old warehouse grain elevator behind the U. of MN. We rented the office of the otherwise abandoned building. After we unloaded a hundred rounds of .25 caliber bullets for fun one day Ed's wife Lorraine, insisted on booting us out. So Larson put us in one of the five boxcars he had outside on a piece of track that had been cut off from the rest. Throughout '89, fueled by LSD and beer, we, as Bob put it "Forged our sound" in the boxcar. Then, in the summer of '90 the warehouse burnt down. Along with it went our power supply and Static Taxi's spirit. From that day on, things unraveled. The party was over. We tried to hold the band together but nothing could stop the bleeding. We decided to fold in the summer of '91. As we watched our friend Bob kill himself we felt helpless and scared. We were always saying it would be a dream come true to kidnap Bob, bring him to an island to clean up, and then record the ultimate rock album. I guess this is as close as we'll get, living on borrowed time..... Ray Reigstad, 1999
