about

ATTENTION CLOWNS:
The Fun Police have finally finished their third full-length album entitled, “Tales of the Great Boozo”! With the kind help of engineer, producer, benefactor, and mid-wife Scott Maass, a new album popped out of the collective Fun Police womb last night. Though it came in screaming and totally disoriented, it was soon on its feet and babbling semi-nonsensical things about Things Broken by a Winnebago dwelling man named Ramtha who lived in The Land of the River. We don't believe this album was born Sober. He mentioned something like, “The Invasion Continues but not to blame it on the Butterfly in China”. (Pure gibberish if you ask us). He then put his little pinky up, and declared that it was time for a Tea Party. It wasn't till we spotted him doing the Shoplifter Shuffle that we noticed our wallets missing. As quick as a greased midget clown on a slip-n-slide he was was out the door – without even a word of thanks. What an ass-clown! We heard on the radio that at approximately 420 in the morning there was a Dispensary Bust, we suspect our little guy might be involved. If you see him around please do not contact the proper authorities; contact us. Listen to him. See what he has to say. Maybe it's not all gibberish. Throw money at him, beer maybe. See what happens.

Thank you everyone for your support in this matter.
We heart all you clowns,
TFP

THANKS, CLOWNS!
Scott Maass for agreeing to be lamaze instructor, midwife, and babysitter to the longest gestation of clown birth ever known. The Fun Police would not have been able to push out this mutated baby without his coaching, counseling, and charitable acceptance of their shady insurance coverage. Jayme Fisher for recording us so many years ago, Dave Barfield for all of his past work, generosity, and the charitable donation of the remaining Clown Control discs. Walt for continuing to be a forgiving slumlord and for putting up with our late rent. The Bombshelter for keeping the local scene alive and kicking. Olympia Pyrate Punks for hooking us up with cool Oly shows. Alan for all his strange gifts, fish BBQ's and good times. Andrew Dimitt for all of his wonderfully wacky art that we have used for years and continue to use. Annika for all of her filming, ideas, and behind the scenes work.
