I was introduced this evening by Top 
to Jester’s 
band
Total Eclipse, The San Francisco Bay Area’s Premier 70’s & 80’s Rock and Pop Party Band!
I had no idea what it was… It’s a band. Duh.
I also had no idea that it is Jester’s band. Well, I mean, he’s in the band. He sings lead vocals, and OMFG IS HE AWESOME! They are the total eclipse of my heart now.
Also, the person who plays the guitar is totally fucking awesome.
They have a ton of songs on their site; like 20… All y’all HAVE to go listen to ALL of the songs.
Isn’t he precious?
I am still listening to their stuff, cranked up. If you didn’t notice, I was having a really shitty day until I started listening to their stuff. Now I have a big ole’ happy grin on my face, and I am SUPER impressed!

Aren’t you sweet with all the link lovin?! We have so much fun in this band that it’s literally been the only thing keeping me in California for the past couple of years. I have friends here that I dearly love, but we’d remain friends whether I lived here or Europe or Costa Rica.
But the band… that I can’t take with me. So, I’m here and playing as much as possible.
We’re working on some new studio recordings. Most of the stuff on our site now was recorded live at a wedding over the summer.
I’ll send you a disk when they’re ready.

[…] Speaking of Total Eclipse, The Absurdist got directed to our music today and she had some very nice things to say about us. […]

It was very fun chatting with you on Yahoo and listening to Total Eclipse Music together.

Jester: It’s the least I can do for the two of you helping me with my sucky-ass gaydar. I cannot WAIT to get the music. That is so awesome of you to send me some. Music, that is. But I will take any “some” you want to hire for me.
Top: Dude, you are so awesome. I still think you look like an attractive and young Will Ferrell, but I do see the Tim Robbins thing. We’ll have to chat more. But tonight, I imagine I will pass out from either a heart attack or exhaustion.
Britt: Go and listen to Footloose, Brown eyed girl and Gimme one reason. Click on the link above, and the music will start. halfway down the page, you can select the song you want to listen to.

I’m going to be in the SF area for two weeks this summer. maybe they’ll be playing somewhere while I’m there…that would be awesome.
Total Eclipse…as in Total Eclipse of the Heart? *Turn around, bright eyes…*

Well now after reading your post I am going to have to go listen to their music. Who could resist?

Miss Britt, you’ll have to get on that right away.
Mel-O-Drama, when’s your trip out here? I may already have something booked. I hope you’re planning on meeting me for a drink! Yes our name comes from the Bonnie Tyler song. Yes, we do perform it.

I’ll be there the last week of July for a conference. Fishdog is flying out that Friday and then we’re staying an additional week to wreak havoc on Sonoma/Napa Valley. And absolutely I had planned to meet you for a drink! I can’t let Killer have all the fun meeting internet friends.

Damn. I want to go too.

Did you also know that Othurme, http://www.immunopressed.com
is also in the band? He is the guitar master.
And if you get out that way, you HAVE to go hang out with these guys. They rock.

No, I didn’t know that, but I did familiarize myself with the band members. I just didn’t know that othurme was one of them. I do follow that blog though.
I don’t like your gravatar (of course, you may not like mine; I just changed mine. I am just glad that they had a banana as an accessory). Can you change it back to the one it was before? You look like a ‘tard.
13 Absurdist // Jan 30, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Okay. I decided your gravatar would look really good if you added color to it. Then it would be acceptable.
14 jester // Jan 31, 2008 at 4:54 am
Just to be a stickler - Othurme is the keyboard player. Not the guitarist.
Though he can play the guitar. And every other instrument on stage.
I like Killer’s new avatar.

I don’t dislike his avatar. When I first saw it, he looked like a turkey.
Then I decided that if he put some color in it, it would look awesome…
Come on man. You know you want to say something!
