At The Red Hot Art Festival

"Ughhhhh, NUDITY!!!"
--Two little boys shortly after walking into one of the tents

"Poontang, poontang, poontang HOOCHIES..."
--Unknown band at the park

A very good version of "Surf Rider" by The Lively Ones. It's a song anyone who has seen "Pulp Fiction" will recognize immediately. Followed by other similar Surf music.
--Unknown band at the park. This is the most coherent band I have EVER heard at this Red Hot Arts thing.
