Thanks for the reminder about Nina Simone's Gum. I had heard about it earlier in the year and my curiosity was peaked but I somehow forgot about it.

Thanks, Blake! Belfast is great. Been going there since the late 90s but it helps to have a guide.

Congrats on CORPORATE ROCK SUCKS. Excellent book on a very interesting topic. I still can't get over that Greg Ginn went to JAIL over Black Flag related legal issues.... Enjoying the blog as well. Happy Holidays!

PS (What was Belfast like? Did you do an blog entry about it?)
