Yo, Trudy, what's your spending range?
Um... if something is awesome I have siblings who will go in on it with me so short of putting her up for a week at the Chelsea I don't really have one.
Wash: I'm not leaving her side, Mal. Don't ask me again. Mal: I wasn't asking. I was telling.
'Out Of Gas'
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Trudy - can you do a quick scan of their CD collection to see what they've got? I would recommend a P.i.L (Johnny Rotten/Lydon's post-Pistols, L.A.-based band) album. My favorites are Second Edition, Happy? and 9.
But if they are a super huge Johnny Rotten fan, they already have all of those probably.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What about the farewell drugs?!?
(sorry)
I once read an interesting book on the Sex Pistols. I forget what it was called, but it was a popular book back in the '90s.

She may not! I shall have someone snoop.
I wonder what Amazon's returns policy is...

Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk is also good, and covers "punk" from the Velvet Underground through the Sex Pistols (thus putting the Pistols into a broader context). But maybe it focuses too much on the self-destructive punk folks....

Heh.
Yeah, I don't want to send the kid cliff-diving. I don't need sanitized pseud-punk, but on the less terrifying end of the spectrum is probably a good call.

If the kid is all smart and intellectual, Lipstick Traces: A Secret History of the 20th Century is a good one. It puts punk's drive for negation of societal norms into a much broader context (eg. Dada, the Situationists, etc). Fascinating book. But some have found it hard to get through.

Kid IS smart.
Boucher and I saw a stage production of Lipstick Traces yonks ago. Good times, good times...
