Revisit our 1993 TheLemonheads cover story
It’s a Shame About RayIT’S FAST APPROACHING 5:00 A.M. IN THE WANE OF A BREEZY AUSTRALIAN SUMMER NIGHT
“At first some people think he’s an airhead or a flake,” says longtime friend and former Lemonhead Juliana Hatfield. “But he just tries really hard to be nice to everybody. He has an amazing understanding of people. He’s brilliant. He’s not like other people.”lay on,” Dando emphasizes. “I don’t need plush hotel suites. I’d rather take the bus, sleep on a floor, and eat at cafés.” Or so an English tabloid has just “quoted” him as saying.
The former best friends have barely spoken since. Over three years later, a Pods four-song seven-inch EP titleddeals with the split through its bitter, wrenching “Name in Vain.” The track accuses Dando of having a penchant for self-advancement at the expense of his friends. Tales from the dark side of the happy-go-lucky Dando include his infamous nightmares and bouts of sleepwalking . In Holland, on the 1989 tour, Casella woke to witness a frightening episode: “Evan was perched on a sink like a bird, screaming gibberish at me, like slurred satanic messages.” Drummer Ryan remembers nights in hotels when the sleeping Dando would leap into the bathroom screaming that someone was under the bed trying to kill him.
We finish listening to the old one and then move on to the tapes we’ve made in Australia, during three days of wandering the beaches and visiting Dando’s many buddies. These “interviews” largely consist of Dando playing his guitar and singing. Dando will play at the drop of a hat. He plays new songs, old songs, his songs, other people’s songs. He plays the first song he ever wrote. He makes up a song about me. He plays in bars, on beaches, in strangers’ houses, anywhere.
Then we hear the sounds of Dando approaching a nervous mom and her two very shy little girls on the boardwalk, trying to get them to sing. He suggests “Eeentsy Weentsy Spider.” “He’s in a rock band,” I whisper to them. After a great deal of coaxing, the girls launch into a really long song about ducks. “See ya later, alligators,” says Dando as they finish. “Bye, Rock Band!” chime the girls as Dando walks away.
