This is great. I'd totally forgotten about that GAP ad. I'm about halfway through the Ozzi book myself. It is striking how he discusses the criticism of "selling out" with bemused bewilderment and tends to frame the desire to protect and nurture independent DIY scenes as "idealistic" instead of, oh I don't know, "principled." But it's definitely an engaging read. But, wait, you're friends with Lol Tolhurst?!?!? Can we talk about *his* autobiography? Finished that a few months ago.

I only had time to skim this and I already love it. Glad I found you. I'll tell you the story of Rollins and I briefly discussing TV Party soon.
Looking forward to it!
