To wrap-up our batch of episodes devoted to the albums of our youth, we go back to the origin and talk about one of the first bands we truly connected with. If you caught VH1's reality show Bands On The Run back in 2001, you may remember the crowned champions, Flickerstick. Their drunken antics and overall attitude toward the hoops they were asked to jump through helped them gain a devoted fanbase. That combined with the energy and passion of their live performances gave them the edge they needed to win the contest, and we were there for every second of it. Today we discuss their debut record, Welcoming Home The Astronauts, and how the power of an amazing live performance had such a lasting impact on budding music-lovers who are still talking about it 20 years later.Tracklist: Flickerstick - Smile Flickerstick - Talk Show Host Flickerstick - Execution By Christmas Lights Sister Crayons - Floating Heads Sloan - Penpals Flickerstick - Girls & Pills Learn more about your ad choices.
