Scratch as Scratch Can

Because the band is notorious for visual as well as musical dynamics -- Who is perfecting the art of sustained flight while playing -- the pressure is definitely on them to come up with something for their next show, this Friday at Squeeze. Mick Who did mention something about blowing up the singer, but he's also sure that can only be done once.

Meanwhile the Itch has continued mailing out demo tapes, receiving responses from California, Texas, and Canada. "We're getting our butts sniffed," Cronin says eloquently.

"We've had a killer response so far," adds Hie. "And I think that this show will be a turning point."

The Itch performs at midnight on Friday at Squeeze, 2 South River Dr., Ft. Lauderdale, 522-2151. Admission costs $5 and $7.
