Randy Hoar's Anuproar
This space is dedicated to my old friend and brother, Randy Hoar jr who has recently passed away in early May 2005.Randy played guitar for the Funky Circus Fleas in '00-'05,played many countless shows around Illinois and beyond,made a significant name for themselves(and still do),and made a major inspiration of a passion for music/message type lifestyle in my own life and how life itself is like a song you play.Before FcF, during the woodshed days, Randy played in AnUproar, an original band that had resulted from many band members/friends jam sessions from '91-'99,AnUproar included; Randy Hoar/vox/bas/guitar,John Crow/ lead guitar/bak vox,Jim Spinser,Shon Tailer/drum,Tim Diwit/bass.AnUproar had only a few descent recordings done on a four track but many countless boombox and video cam recordings are out there.These songs are very deep and meaningful to me,looking back now there always seemed to be a strange urgency to get this out,and the fact that these songs came together so easily and quickly with everyone playing their part with no friction amongst us,its no wonder it came and went so fast..Randy came up with the album name "Strong Conviction"because some of the lyrics he wrote were so personal and heartfelt that after playing in front of a crowd we dropped some of the songs because of the strong warning that he was compelled to give them and the fact that we're all guilty...I met Randy in '89 the year I started playing guitar,I was 18 he was 15 he was starting to play guitar but his role in a band was obviously singing so he focused on that.He was jammin with Roadkill(Sean Tailer,Arron Slatir,Tim Diwit,John Plunkit,)a very young,energetic,heavy rock band out of B'town who would later become the current FcF..Within a few years I started playing with a few friends from Rushville,including Jasun Perry,and the late Pete Lashbrook.These guys really inspired me to want to learn music theory/scales/modes/lateral/linear type playing as they totally were into ripping out guitar solos.Later,as we got better Randy asked if he could come out and sing and once he did our singer seemed to fall back to the guitar as the obvious"Roar of the Hoar"made his debut...We played many cover tunes but they were always done in an original way as we had thumpin drums, screamin guitars,lowdown bass,and Hoar vocals,from skynerd to slayer every song featured a mosh pit opportunity..
