Quixote (?)
Jason Paul writes in:
I got the go ahead to send in that remastered Quixote to post. So that's kinda kick-ass. It's kind of funny how I was just Googling Paul Wartella's obituary because I was contacting some other friends of ours who didn't realize he had passed and I found this site, and through this site I was able to get ahold of Tony U. and give him a secret remastered CD he didn't know existed.
If for nothing else at least this site has reminded me again how small of a world we live in. This e-mail is mainly to thank you for this site, it's pretty entertaining and reminiscent.
I'll wait for you to reply to this e-mail before I start sending the songs. I will put one per e-mail, all 11 of them. I have to warn you the 9 from the released album are untitled (just had a burned CD, and there are no CDDB entries for CD's that have only two known copies) and the other 2 unreleased songs are basically untitled.

hey gang,
paul didn't pass away until 2005. i don't know where you all are getting your info, but if you don't know when somebody died, you might not want to be putting the info out there.
don't mean to be harsh, but what the fuck? we're not talking about when somebody put a record out or when they got a new nirvana t-shirt.
i am still in contact with his mother who is doing well.
some of you might be interested to KNOW (not guess) that Paul was doing VERYwell before he died. in fact, he was actually volunteering at a rehab facility... and they dedicated a LIBRARY to him... the Paul J Wartella Library. believe it or not... that is TRUTH.
i was there the day it was dedicated to him. it was a BEAUTIFUL day.
we all have stories of partying with Paul or watching him throw up... but i think you all would be surprised (as i was) to see the MANY MANY people whom he touched in a truly special and loving way. i was blown away as nearly 100 people stood up to talk about how much he had helped them with their own recovery.
again, i don't mean to be an asshole (i can't help it)... but it was 2005.

Chattanooga huh? Thats cool. I've been there several times playing or seeing shows.
I'm currently in the land of sun and geriatrics - florida.
Moved from Mich to Ill to Az to Germany to florida. Got married and now have a baby daughter.
I however still think that Michigan is the epicenter of the universe but my wife likes warm climates better so i'll have be down here until it sinks into the Atlantic and Michigan becomes the new south.
good to see that you still keeping on. The Florida music environment is dreadful.
ciao

PS - Remember the Coffinger's down the street from you in kazoo? Christine was super hot.

Tony, i'm living in Chattanooga, Michigan is too cold for me. Life is great down here, i feel it's necessary to let everyone know that they need to escape that awful state before they're buried in it. ~peace.

My fond memories of Paul W. outside of Soda talking to him, when out of the blue he just vomited profusely all over the sidewalk, then seemed to think nothing happened. good times... good times.

Super fucking thank you Jpiz!
email on the way.
In response to: JPiz on 02-12-08 for Quixote
Absolutely, just e-mail me at themanosaur @ gmail . com (broken up to avoid spam robots) and we'll set something up.
I haven't given this version out to anybody yet and I feel it's fitting that I at least give it to somebody who wrote/recorded the songs.
I can't get ahold of Mike Shure (all the old numbers I have for Sunspot are disconnected and I can't find any new contact numbers so I doubt I'm going to post this. I'll give you a copy and let you decide what to do with it.)
If you makes you feel any better I'm sure Joel doesn't even know this re-mastered copy exists. --- end of previous message ---

Is there anyway I could get in touch with you. I'd love to have a copy of it... Since Joel and I no longer speak to one another I have no way of getting things that I believe I should. Considering I wrote every song on that album Joel shouldn't have any more of a say wether or not it is posted or given out.
It really excites me to hear these songs have been re-mastered considering recording really hurt us as a band. We never did it well. Wether it was money or time constraints, Paul's inability to play sober, Joels extreme adherence to what he thought sounded "punk" or my unrelenting anxiety in the studio never produced the sound or least the sound I had hoped for.
Please write me with contact information I would so appreciate it.
best,
tony uminn

E-mail sent to LeonsTemple:
I was good friends with Paul Wartella (quixote's first drummer) and was in a work-in-progress band with him (stay young, little one) post quixote that recorded at sunspot records. Mike Shure (owner of Sunspot) had the original DATs from the self-titled first release and remastered it to perfection.
It makes the original release sound like muffled garbage. Also it has a couple extra songs on it.
You'd have to talk to Joel Wick and likely Mike Shure to see if it would be ok to send this around but it is the best Quixote album hands down.
I believe I am one of 3 people that has a copy, Mike Shure, my friend John (also from sy,lo) and myself. Until now I have been 100% against giving it out but it is a piece of kalamazoo history.
In response to: JPiz on 01-06-08 for Quixote
Paul didn't pass away until until 2002 I believe. It wasn't as much an overdose as it was a stressed heart stopping beating. He was one of my best friends and probably, at times, my worst enemy.
We were in a band together (post-Quixote)and we recorded a song at Sunspot that was put on the Arborvitae Records comp. "Foreign Nationals".
Also I have one of the only copies of the remastered self-titled, it sounds better and has two more songs with Paul on drums. I'd consider posting it since Joel Wick stole my money in his split 7" debaucle. --- end of previous message --- --- end of previous message ---

Unfortunately Paul passed from an overdose.
I believe it was in Feb of 95.
