Stefan and Sugar Jon went to Whangamata for new years 1990/1991 telling their parents that they were getting a ride with friend Shelley's uncle but really they hitchiked. Picked up in Thames by a woman in a horse truck who only picked them up cos she thought they were girls. When the truck went round the narrow bendy hilltop roads the horse would kick the side and send the truck veering off into thick oncoming holiday traffic. After a few days in Whangamata it became apparent that Jon and Stefans mothers had talked and worked out the lies. Jon called his mum and got a growling and when he got off the phone Stefan said they should form a band called Pumice.

Hey Stefan. I just read your tour dates and I thought it said appearing with Akon (rather than Akron). I tried to imagine that gig and it made me feel nauseous, so i had to lie down. Get in touch old man...Ax
