The other night, my son Sam (he's 1 year old now) started bopping the palm of his hand flat against his mouth, making it sound like "A-BA-BA-BA-BA", you know,...
Bechet played just as much clarinet, god damnit! And his clarinet tone is what kills me about him. Nobody else ever got that tone, all wood. O.K....then.... ...

Speaking of buying things and smashing them, Kim Walter sent me an e- mail with an E-Bay listing of The Cardboards "Greatest Hits" (the white 12 inch "pimped"...
Since Ron is a computer-less Luddite, I thought I'd respond in his "defense." He may have assembled some of those at the Darkroom, but Joe, Ivan, Ron, and I...

So every 12 inch has a secret satanic message! But we don't have the decoder ring to read it without removing the photo and ruining the cover. I can see it...
errr, that was a Hector song about Lansbury. Phil wrote it. :) And for the "record" I cherish my Cardboards album: Greatest Hits, Volume 2. Gravity's still...
DIY was what it was all about, to me anyway. Start a band, make a poster, start a label, start a fanzine. Was Sniffin' Glue--in its own way--the first blog? ...
All, Got an email from Mike Lavella. He says he will be there for the Reuinion. Don't know yet about a Half Life reunion. Also, start letting me know if...

I'm so out of it that I'm not familiar with Frank Black. Anyway, Tony Norman has a piece in the PG which mentions this song and Reid's participation in it's...
Hi there, Frank Black was the lead singer for the Pixies. We saw him a few years ago here in Louisville with his band, the Catholics. It was an awesome show....
