jump, little children – easter parade

[purchase jump's the early years, vol 1]

Jack Bauer once saved a young boy from a terrorist attack. As thanks, the boy gave Jack his pet rabbit. The rabbit, upon seeing Jack, got so excited that it shat an egg. Jack then said to him, “What the fuck is wrong with your rabbit??”, decided he didn’t want a rabbit that shat eggs, and proceeded to eat it in front of the boy. The boy started crying, and Jack said, “Hey, what’s the matter? Here, have an egg”. That day is now referred to as Easter.

Rosebud is one of my long time, favorite bands. They are officially the cast-aside side project of the indefinitely broken up Jump, Little Children. The brainchild of Jay Clifford, Rosebud also features the lovely Tin Cup Prophette [Amanda Kapousouz] on fiddle, the prolific Michael Bellar on piano, and fellow Jump bandmates Jonathan on bass & Evan Bivins on drums [though Les Hall plays piano at this show].

This is a show that Rosebud played at the now defunct Go! Room 4 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina close to six years ago. This venue was downright beautiful, even it was tiny. Little did we know that it might be the last time we saw the band or the club again. They played a few shows in support of their then new album, Vespers, and we’ve had nothing since. We then lost Jump, Little Children a couple years later.

I recorded this on my sony minidisc recorder from the audience — my apologies for the camera clicks in the background! I hope you enjoy.

I tried to find somewhere online where you could buy the albums, but I couldn’t find it! If anyone knows, please let me know.

I’ve got some other shows I may throw up here at some point, if anyone’s interested in checking ‘em out…but I thought this one was especially interesting, as Rosebud hasn’t played too many shows [at least that i'm aware of].

I took a 3d animation class in college, and I was inspired by Rosebud’s Beautiful Moment. Here’s a little ‘music video’ i made:

as you’re probably incredibly sad that there’s no dockstreet show this year, hopefully this will ease the pain in your heart…
