Funny how things happen... like Thad selling the
van. Looking every day he'd spent, calling out
to his wife, reminiscing about the time he drove
clear across the country. Yeah, it's the same old
story - but it's a good one. "I'm 75 years old,"
he said with half a smile. "I get up at five in the
morning." Not even counting it all, he gave me
back fifty bucks. "Here," he said, "get some gas.
And watch that fuel gauge. Don't ever let it hit E."

"A big guitar sound fuels the music on Crackpot’s
Call It What You Want. Guitarist Colm Stephens
also serves as a solid back-up vocalist for lead
singer/bassist Kevin Stephens as they rip through the
classic power pop of "Honey Well" and
"Prove You Wrong," along with drummer Jimmy
Timble. "Division" adds a touch of Americana to the
mix, while the energetic "Impossible" closes the disc
on a high note."
