I for one don’t know why everyone is up in Bucs wide receiver David Boston’s business for just hanging out in his car listening to some GBH. I mean, yeah, GBH is not the first band you’d think of if you were curating the next volume of Jock Rock, but whatever, wide receivers are eclectic like that. In any event, GBH was (and is) a fine band from the heyday of early 80’s punk. Remember when punk was still a little bit melodic and slightly metal? Yeah, that was neat. Then Slayer came and confused me.
Wait, what? It wasn’t GBH? Ohhhhhhh. He had GHB in his system when police found him asleep in his car at an intersection. Silly me. Did I mention the car was running and he had apparently dozed through a couple cycles of the stop light? Nevertheless, I still don’t see what the problem is. Like, back in ‘89 the Times was reporting on the potential uses of GHB as a miracle treatment for narcolepsy. Of course he had GHB in his system. He’s totally narcoleptic, which explains both the GHB and the fact that he was crashed out at the wheel. That’s nothing, I once saw him fall asleep in the middle of a seriously tense DDR challenge at the T.I. Fun Center. What’s with the witch hunt? Sheesh. I hope his defense team is reading this. Billable hours, bitches.
Oh yeah, and here’s some GBH just for shits:
GBH - “Fist of Regret (mp3),” A Fridge too Far, 1989

Thanks for the trip down the GBH memory lane. Awesome. Saw them once “back in the day”, and the place got raided, while they were on stage. While police were putting minors into a paddy wagon, GBH pissed on the stage. Total punk rock moment.
