Ah Oh Ah Oh

When I decided to propose marriage to my future wife, the first person I told was Kevin Thomas. Kevin and I lived about a mile from each other and spent every weekend together driving back and forth between Magnolia and Katy. I would spend a couple nights each week with him at the record store he was employed at, enjoying a pizza and playing numerous rounds of the game Uno. When I look back on that period of my life, my friendship with Kevin is one of the things I miss the most. He's been lost to the sands of time now, blown into a different world entirely, but at the time he had a recording project called See How They Fight Invisible Foes.





This song is beautiful and haunting, and typified most of what Kevin would write. Lo-Fi, bedroom recording at its best. Currently, he's involved in The Eastern Sea down in Austin, TX.

  2. I always enjoyed having Kevin around, too. That's a good song!

    The Eastern Sea don't list Kevin on their LastFM page, but they do on MySpace. They have a good sound, too.
