Sam Lloyd from "Scrubs" with a message for the readers of LAist from Thomas Attila Lewis on Vimeo.
We ran into Sam Lloyd (whom we interviewed last year) at the Griffith Park train line where he gave us an update on what's going on with him and "Ted the Lawyer's Band" from "Scrubs", aka The Blanks. Unfortunately you won't be seeing Sam or The Blanks on ABC's "Scrubs" anytime soon but The Blanks are on tour and will be back in LA soon enough. They play in Boston this Friday so tell your friends out there - more info on The Blanks available at their website.
