My son and I sawTelevision ten or so years ago in Chicago in a small place during Riot Fest. Next to stage, dead in front of Tom Verlaine. Got lots of cool dad credit.

You will find no argument here regarding Adventure. As always, your references are spot on. The album is Glory-ous.

Didn't Hell do some writing too? SPIN, maybe.

That seems right. His memoir is a FANTASTIC read, too.

I just finished your piece, and yes, I bet the memoir is good. What I've never forgotten was an article from the mid to late 90's wherein he went to a bar in some lonesome Northern state looking for signs of life. In describing the clientele, his description ran something( close enough) like this. `` The women inside were trailer park goddesses, their men, a collection of skanky brutes.'' No way to not keep that one in the brain bank! My fav from yours: ``full expression of its quaalude potential.'' Yes!
