if you were a teen ager in L.A. 20 years ago you have to remember this band

THE 3:00 o'Clock. they were this huge underground band out of long beach. does anyone remember them? i'm on my way to the haight with dd to search for some of their old tapes.

Ooh. I remember them! I saw them open for R.E.M. at the Tower Theater in Philadelphia in '85! I remember that show well because R.E.M. really totally sucked. Peter Buck was drunk off his a$$ and the show was totally sloppy.

I was a teenager 20 years ago in Portland, Oregon and I remember them. I had a friend in high school who was into them. Weren't they on the IRS label? I loved that label...

first they were on frontier records then i think IRS picked them up. they seriouly rocked! the lead Michael Quercio was an absolute doll. me and my best friend would drop major acid and go to 3:00 shows and roll canteloupes on stage. they had this song called " canteloupe girlfriend" we were really crazy..............ok, i admit it. we were groupies. once they gave us a ride home..........and you know what happened in the van? absolutely nothing.
