Atlanta to Korea

Saw SP at Lollapalooza in Atlanta ‘94. SD got me hooked and then I revisited Gish. 2 short years later who knew I’d be in a life-changing journey by moving to Korea to start a new career path. My best bud gave me a parting gift of the newly released MCIS CD. You can imagine my culture shock arriving in a new country with a different writing system and language, food etc. I loved it but also needed something to hold onto from home. That something was the iconic MCIS by SP. I can’t tell you how many hours I listened to that in my super small apt. in a big, crowded city. It really was my sanity. And the music was so so great that it left a deep impression on me. Well here I am in Korea still and still listening to MCIS as well as all their catalog. We change with periods of our life and SP music changes as well. I hear a song from MCIS and it instantly brings me back to a certain time and place, but I’m also not overly nostalgic about it because the music hold up so well today. It’s still very high on my playlist. I just want to thank Billy and SP for what they do and we are so fortunate that they are still doing it. Hey, after Covid can you guys come to Korea or Japan? I’ll be there!
