I always confuse 12 Rods with 12 Rounds

no idea what happened to it but used have this local bands 90s CD comps (i don't know if every city was like mpls in the 90s but holy shit there were so many fucking local CD comps back then) that had a very very early 12 Rods song before they figured out their identity and it sounded EXACTLY like Jane's Addiction, kinda funny

three weeks pass...

he still makes really cool music, electronic stuff under the name "c.kostra"

i only know him a bit from around and as a the sound mixer/booker at local club, he's always been super pleasant and great to deal with

agreed although sometimes he is really grumpy on FB :(
