This one time (no, not at bandcamp) we were in Albuquerque, NM hangin' out. Could've been Nationals, could've been Gathering, might've been both. We were at a friends house and us girls were sitting in one of the bedrooms just talking and wanting to be alone. Josh kept peeking his head in wondering what we were up to. We kept kicking him out. We kicked anybody out that tried to get through the door. It was girl talk, leave us alone. Of course Josh was gonna make that entrance in there one way or another. Sure enough he did! He opened that door one last time and started talking like he was Dale Oldhorn. Sounded just like him too or any of those powwow emcees. "Ladies and gentleman....welcome to the umpteenth annual GATHERING OF NATIONSSSSSS POW WOWWWWW, my name is Julius Drum and I will be your host for the evening...you are witnessing the Grand Entry here tonight, and now entering the arena are the women's jingle dress dancers!! Let's give them a round of applause" (or something to that effect). Anyways, he stood up real straight, chin held high, put his hands on his hips and started dancing JINGLE!! OMG!! We fell out laughing so hard!! He was such a dork! Then he follows up with his crazy laugh and smile, "ayyyyeee, just did that! Just Joshin'!!" Well he managed to hang out with us 'cuz we made him do that whole gig over and over and over again until he got tired of it AND us. We'd say, "ok, close the door and come back in and do it again!" And it was just as funny as the first time.
Gee that guy was crazy! I'm gonna miss you Joshie! Lots of funny, funny memories. You were endless with your comedic routines.
