That Thing Johnathon Does

I have two reasons for writing this post. The first reason is I was looking for an excuse to post the above recent photo of noted hunk Johnathon Schaech, and writing this post gave me that excuse. And the second reason is that, as I stated in my previous post, I'm out of sorts today and I'm just trying to get my fingers tap-tap-tapping on the keyboard to get myself into practice -- I have a lot of shit to do this week and my foggy brain ain't helping anything. Now neither of those reasons are what this post is actually technically about, you see...

... what this post is actually technically about is that the soundtrack to the beloved 1996 musical That Thing You Do!, written and directed by Tom Hanks and starring Mr. Schaech alongside Tom Everett Scott, Steve Zahn, and Ethan Embry as a 1960s boy band, is being put out onto vinyl this week for the very first time! It's coming from Mondo and it goes on sale on Wednesday, click here for all the assorted sordid information. Now here's the kicker -- I have never seen this movie. Isn't that crazy? I should fix that, right? I think at the time I had little interest in Schaech all cleaned up and bubblegum -- I was deep in my Xavier Red fantasies. Looking back now... I was a fool to limit my options. Every flavor of Schaech is welcome.
