March 1 – On This Day

Boss Hog - Effenaar, Eindhoven, Netherlands (1 March 1991) - Boss Hog1991: Boss Hog – Effenaar, Eindhoven, Netherlands
w/ The Jesus Lizard

“Beautiful Cristina Martinez wore a little black dress that kept creeping up her thighs when Boss Hog played at the Effenaar in Eindhoven, Holland in 1991, made it a very hard act to follow. I decided to just wear my long johns for our show.

When Boss Hog got offstage Cristina asked why I was in my winter undies and I sort of explained the situation. She thought it would be a good idea if I wore her dress, her fishnets, and her panties. I thought it would be a good idea too, so we went into the next room and she gave me her soaking wet clothes, I put ’em on.” – David Yow / Jesus Lizard – Book
