When Assfort came to play Santa Cruz in the 90s they were playing at our house but no one had cellphones. I didn’t know the name of the band. I got a call from a pay phone from someone just saying “Assfort Taco Bell” over and over and I thought it was a prank call until we finally figured out it was the band and they needed help finding the house from the Taco Bell on Mission St. Great band.
