Jeffrey Normal meets road-hardened multi-saxophonist Bill Bousfield.They form a band which Bill names 3 hole PUNCH,relating to a variety of references including 3 Qabalistic 0's,AIN SOPH AUR,The Trips Festivals in San Francisco,and of course,the obvious sexual and sacred connotations.They meet veteran New York drummer Rich Maslach and Chris Davies becomes their incredible guitarist as well as the young iconoclastic phenom Drew Thompson.They recorded "How do you like my cat" a 7 song 74 minute rump-rompous of improvised FUN!
