I wanna go to Schellraiser! I don't wanna be a Boatswain's Mate. Can you get us booked for next year?

It sounds like my ShangriLa. And I should have two books to talk about and maybe there is a great Detroit band who could play it

Love these Dinosaur Jr stories! And Corporate Rock Sucks is great. I got so wrapped up reading about the first SST wave that I was pleasantly surprised when I remembered Sonic Youth, D Jr, etc were coming up next. Engrossing stuff

Good one! I love Steve Keane - have a dozen of his paintings in my kiitchen. I think it cost 60 bucks. Loved the food truck scene with J Mascis. Helluva tour you got going.. F*#k that jarhead.
