A musician for 35 years, primarily as a bass player for bands including Fancy Trash, Hadley Transfer Station, Slumberland, and Love Minus Zero. Now flying solo and releasing music as myself! Check out my debut solo album ‘It Will Still Keep Feeling Rough.’
The first iPhone wasn’t released until 2007. It wasn’t easy to take a video clip and move it the internet, somehow.

Also during this gig, Dana Colley from @vaporsofmorphine came up for an extended jam on Dylan’s “One More Cup of Coffee.” It was epic.

To do that took a lot of intention in those days. I remember seeing them with the camcorder on their shoulder. From there it would have meant they went home, transferred the footage onto their PC, and then used loaded from there.

We lost Jim in September. He was a tremendous songwriter and collaborator, founding member of King Radio. We played together in our first high school band Exit and then years later he asked me to join him in his new group Hadley Transfer Station.

“For all the rugged emotional terrain, It Will Still Keep Feeling Rough is at its core a triumphant album. When he was feeling his roughest, Thayer sought solace in music — and after 35 years in a supporting role, found that he’s more than capable of stepping out front.” — FreakScene
