[[Bush]] was a trio that featured [[Pat Finn]] on bass, [[Pat Wilson]] on drums, and [[Tom Gardocki]] (later of Wax) on guitar. After Finn convinced Wilson to join him out in L.A, in early spring 1990, the two hooked up with Gardocki to create a power trio that drew influences from Primus, Fishbone, the Chili Peppers, and modern Jazz weirdness. There were few songs with lyrics, which were usually sung by Finn. I'm unsure how many shows this band did, but it wasn't very many.

Note that as of 11/1/90, Bush was officially de-named, probably due to Gardocki's leaving the band. (Probably around the time Wax was forming) Finn and Wilson kept going, rehearsing with just each other as well as Sharp (see below) and in the spring of 1991 with [[Jason Cropper]] (see below), whom Finn had made the acquaintance of up in Northern California. None of the subsequent new band names stuck however, so we're calling the whole thing Bush.
