Listen to Memphis Weirdos

Memory is a funny thing. I was walking out of a corner store several years ago and ran into my friend, Matt Brown. Matt was probably 6’1 and probably weighed 130 pounds. For as long as I can remember, he was skinny and tall. He asked me if I could drive him home and I told him yes. On the ride, he told me he played bass in a fairly new band, Evil Army. He talked about how popular they were and how much he loved playing with them. I saw him play once with another band called Horla. On stage he was a mass of fury. He was a great bass player. Off stage, he was kind and sweet, at least he was to me. I knew had issues with heroin, but back then, everyone was on something. I didn’t think much about it. I gave him my phone number and dropped him off. He said he’d be in touch. That didn’t happen. He passed away about a year later. Overdosed.

This broadcast is dedicated to Matt Brown.

    Man, what a great Playlist! Matt Bones Brown was one hellava badass and am honored to call him a best friend. There ain’t a day goes by I don’t think about him in light and in laughter. He was a true gem that we lost too damn early for sure, He lives on In memory, film, pictures and in song, for that I am ever grateful. Thank you Memphisweirdos, I needed this. Sincerely, Natty Boom Boom Batty

    1. Thank you so much! This was my first metal show and I’ve been doing this for a few years. I was thinking about Matt the other day. I ran into him one day several years ago and he looked great. I asked him what he was doing and he told me he was measuring babies at a hospital! I doubled over with laughter. He was telling the truth! It was just so funny. I know you miss him. I am really glad I did this show. I will do another one soon.
