The Whitefronts
Many times ago, before all the Haight-Ashbury
"couch-ins," before the intimate nights shared with
opinionated butt-beggars in precious Golden gate Park,
before the numberless flophouse feasts, even before
the renowned "miracle on Market Street; we lived the
'other' life.
We were still there, & again, we heard the sELF
coursing across the eighty-eight & a third waves of
air 'tween Ypsi & Dexter: & UNDERSTOOD! We kNEW the
bliss of smoking dope on the Diag any day but
HASHBASH, b'gosh, of whence 'they' retain highness.
NO, but we were still, & again...there...& YOU,
damnitall, YOU found oursELF lying deep in a bathtub
full of acid in the basement of East Quad with one eye
& the backside of our head off. Sweet b'Jesus, if
Lance Morrow remain in the dark.
wEE! are again there, & ...still: except for, in
SPIRIT, thanks to the GRACE-bestowing power of
engraved flash-back. THUS: HAIL! We say to THEE, HALE,
for we havst RISEST! Offer sacrifices to the gods in
joyous praise, for the name liveth, & we shal spew it
forth fropm our lips until these tonsils burst, & a
red mist lightly dawns upon our friends & listeners. &
LO! we have heard thaT name while beinG in a state of
higHness, & we have intuited thaT it was the voice of
March Wells, & he spaketh to us thus:
"BE it known to thee, o lesser gods of Bogden, that
there WILL cum a day, a day when the largest city
Shall fall, a day when the superpower's greatest
dreams & teachers Shall explode in a giant ball of
flaming death & tin. Take HEED! Take fuckin' HEED, I
say to thee, or thy stony dicks Shall separate, &
fall, again, to the earth. FOr, on this DAY, he who is
called: 'WE OF BASEMENT HAYDEN,' glory on the highest,
SHALL BE, STILL, RISEN in the WEST, & vinyl shall spew
forth from the center of their drug infested soul, &
it shall be known to the masses as: ROAST BELIEF, & it
Shall be Known & praised by the Residents & from this
day hence he who is CALLED: 'WE OF BASEMENT HAYDEN'
shall gather together, en bande, & this shall be
called: The WHITEFRONTS; glory on the HighesT, & the
name shall emanate from San Francisco. & still again,
this band shall rightfully assume the seat & grace of
the revered Ashbury guruship, & THAT very lineage
Shall indeed be passed along in private ceremony, by
THAT revered bande who is called GRATEFUL DEAD; glory
on the very highest. & this successor Shall indEEd
usher inh the very NEWEST of the AGES. TAKE HEED!, 0
those of limp ganglia, for you must see to it that
THIS vinyl thus spaken may enlighten those of thicker
soul,To the EAST! & to the SOUTH!. Take FUCKIN'
HEED!, I say, or not a singular future generation
Shall ever shit upon thIS earth. & in accord to the
prophecy thus found deep in the scriptures, YOU SHALL
return the form of His body: ROAST BELIEF, to THAT
very LAND from which HE sprouteth. SOBEIT"
All Hail The Whitefronts, as the highest, &
spinneth their vinyl upon YOUR tables, in accord with
THAT prophecy thus spaketh. Jimmy be inside yOUR soul.
Jesus H. Christ
