You Don't Do Me

http://www.box.net/shared/21hplx045r

This song started out as - You don't do me like you did me when you did me last summer.

You Bitch

What a funny song.
You Bitch. Don't Switch. If you're messing with my guy, I will blacken your eye. You Bitch.
Don't you wish you had an ass like this, you bitch.

That Shit Is Good

I think this is one of our better songs.
That Shit is Good. That shit is a cause for a celebration.

Hail Satan
I played this song on acoustic guitar in Dublin, Ireland with an Irish Hare Krshna family. I didn't sing the words though.

Femalien

There was a porno layout that we ran across called "Femalien"
The women were naked (of course) shaved and decorated a la Alienation with spots on their bald heads. We were looking for porno pictures to glue to the S&M's candies that we were making for a show.

Kim suggested we end this song with a nice Em. Perfect.

or Who What When Where Why How.
I love Cassie's Harmonica solo in this. Brilliant.

Yusakuta Theme

I wanna dress you up
and present you to the supreme one.
I remember the day we came up with our band name. We were so pleased that we went into the practice room and just started playing music and Cassie was repeating the name of the band and this is what manifested.

Hey Paul

Hey Linda, I think that you are a creep
Hey Paul by Yusakuta
Our ode to Linda and Paul McArtney who were at the time manufacturing very unhealthful vegetarian food.

Cypress Hill?

Aunt Charlie's

This drag bar was immediately behind one of the four walls of our practice space on Turk Street in the Tenderloin. We used to go in there to use the payphone and strange transvestites were kind to us.

He wasn't intending for it to be her, but when Tedd was dressed like this, people kept asking, "Are you Betty Davis?"
He was confused.

NOPA + Posts = NOSTS







I think it was created by a real estate agent, but the neighborhood that I'm living in these days is NOPA, or North Panhandle. It's great having access to the park and Haight Street is the local stroll. I look out the window at cafes and there's Muni frankenstein lightning out my window.

Thanks Ilhan!

Hi all - it's Cassie. I just want to give a shout out to all of Yusakuta's friends (because face it, we didn't really have any fans) and say a big thank you to Ilhan for creating this space to remember our band and our dear Tedd.

A lot has happened in our lives since Yusakuta, but really, those 5 years we were together were truly one of the most fabulous times in my life. Never again have I had so much support and the space where I could freely express myself (and boy I sure did express my inner-most thoughts). I am still desperately in search of people to make music with, but I have never been able to replace my Yusakuta mates.

I'll try and stir up some provocative memories and post some more soon!

RIP, Tedd.
