Six Degrees of OJ Separation
Kato Kaelin recently appeared in a video with The Lashes. I think Lashes singer Ben Clark was in a high school talent show band with my brother called The Stoics a little over a decade ago.
Found an interview with Ben Clark from back in May that has a classic quote about growing up here in Spokane:
Spokane was a really all-American town; a very odd, small town where stuff happens. On the surface, it looks like a really nice, perfect place, but then there's serial killers and meth addicts, and Neo-Nazis that live nearby. So it's this whole weird thing where everything seems really perfect, but it's all a little bit twisted. The city was a really cool place to grow up, in the way where you kind of hate a lot of things about it. The people who want to stick out or do anything different really stick out.

Kato:
"Hello?"
Lashes:
"Hi, is this Kato?"
Kato:
"Yes. Who's this?"
Lashes:
"We're a rock band, The Lashes, and we're coming to Hollywood to make a video, are you available?"
Kato:
"Yeah I'm available. How much does it pay?"
Lashes:
"We're able to offer you fifty bucks and a slice of pizza. Plus if OJ is in the news you may get some hits on YouTube, so..."
Kato:
"Deal!"
