VAST stands for Visual Audio Sensory Theater, and is the brainchild of Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and musician Jon Crosby. The musical outfit began in rather minimalist fashion when Jon was only sixteen, with the other members of the outfit being a drum machine and a bass player. Always wanting to be more than a simple rock band, VAST has attempted to live up to its name through making its live shows a full-on sensory experience, employing display monitors and other visual effects onstage. Their real rise to fame began when a local radio station granted consistent air-time to their demo tape, after which Crosby sent demo tapes to New York City recording companies, eventually signing with Elektra Records. Thomas Froggatt, Steve Clark, and Rowan Robertson made up the hastily-assembled band along with Crosby.

I Woke Up LA Lyrics
VAST
I woke up LA
Then I went to sleep
I saw so many things
I know that you saw too
I walked a thousand miles
In clothes that children made
I felt so many things
I know that you felt too
Please forgive me, you know I lost my mind
Please forgive me, you know I lost the time
To say I love you
I woke up LA
Maybe it's a dream
To be with those who play
Dress up, make believe
I flew a thousand miles
On wings that children made
With all the things you get
When you don't have anything
Please forgive me, 'cause I forgot my lines
Please forgive me, while I still have time
Just to say you love me, yeah, say you love me
I woke up LA
To sound the siren song
Everything is great
And everything is wrong
I flew a thousand miles
On wings that children made
Yeah, it's the thing you get
When you don't want anything
