Was anybody else her at the Deke house party in 1987 with The Connells?

ChrisL68?

I was there. Buttermaker and Dkin were as well I'm sure.

Was never a huge fan, but Vertical Horizon was ubiquitous for my freshman/sophomore years (99/00 and 00/01). Every time I hear them, it reminds me of Wake.

Trivia question - what was this band's original name?

 

[Buttermaker]

Joshua Tree and Life's Rich Pageant were two of my favs from the early college years. Also Dire Straits Dire Straits and Communique, although those albums were released a few years earlier.

And yes, I was at the DKE Connells party. Good time.

No metion of Del Suggs on this thread? That man was at Shorty's at least once a month in the late 90's.

I think they were originally called, '16x Gayer Than BBD'.

Knock it off with the rude comments, my man BBD is not gay! He married a chick. Hes just doing the gay rights thing because he wants to be a school guidance counselor one day.

I was confusing Vertical Horizon with a local band of WFU students - Indian Summer. Not sure why. Anyone recall that bands original name?

Yes, they were "Limited Sight Distance" Junior year, and changed to Indian Summer by Sr. year.

They were decent, but not nearly as good as "Racer X" aka "Easily Suede" aka "Voodoo Chicken".

The bassist was my roommate for a couple of years. They were the best local band around in the mid-80s (except for maybe Dillon Fence) and after graduation they tried to make it big in Athens but unfortunately they didn't go far.
