Ouch! The Knitters show this summer was so transcendent, I don't know if I'm sorry I'm missing X, or happy with what I've got.
Definitely the Buzzcocks. Now I have to go listen to "Jerk" again.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

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.

X is playing NY for the first time in year tomorrow, and I have a ticket, but I can't go because of my goddamned back. Stupid cervical radiculopathy!
Man, that's tough. Because they haven't declined but maybe a half inch from their peak and that's mostly on Exene's vocals which are a little raggedy compared to their previous raggedy standard. But Zoom and Bonebrake and Doe still play with some ferocity and talent.

Trudy, here's the book to buy. A Debbie Harry centerfold AND a Bay City Rollers interview!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ahhh. I've got about 7 original issues of Punk magazine. Including the Nick Danger fumetti with Richard Hell, and the Beach movie fumetti starring Debbie and Joey Ramone. Among my most treasured artifacts.

Check out some of the links at the bottom of that page, David, esp. the Quine bio. I think one of the Spins I kept was the issue with "Huck Hell & Legs Sawyer On The Mississippi" in which Messrs. Hell & McNeil go rafting. Maybe I'll dig it out tomorrow as it has yet to make its way to storage. And even though I have no idea when I'll be going to work again I suppose I should go to bed. Goodnight, John Boy.

Will do.
I'm having lunch with lisah today! Oysters and champagne. Yay, bivalves.

Jealous...want to meet lisah. A little cautious about oysters, though. Have never eaten one.

Your stomach does seem a bit on the jumpy side. Have you never eaten clam chowder or oyster stew?
I don't like east coast oysters that much. I prefer the smaller, more intensely flavored ones that come out of Seattle. Kumamoto's especially. Oh, they're tiny but good. But also Miyagi and Hama Hama.

What? Because I'm Antabuse incarnate? Clam chowder, yes. Lots. Love it. Nothing oysterish but the crackers...mom may have had an Oyster Trauma of some sort.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mix question: is it too much of a stop to put a six-minute jazz Nutcracker Suite thing in the middle of a Christmas mix?
