Ed Crawford convinced the hardcore's greatest rhythm section to blaze chemical wire with him. The story goes that the members of Camper Van Beethovan told him (while sitting on top of their van) that the surviving members of the Minutemen were auditioning for a new singer. In reality, Mike Watt and George Hurley were not eager to get back into music after the recent death of D. Boon; but Crawford's passion won them over. fIREHOSE got their name from one of the cuecards Bob Dylan holds up in the video for 'Subterranean Homesick Blues'.

There's too many blanks in your analogies"

This torch is for hire"

But my place with you
Is shown symbolically"
