It's call MY TEEN ANGST HAS A BODY COUNT. It'll probably be alot of tirades on stuff I'm into, I'm working on an article on my library of 50s and 60s smut novels, a brief "tour diary" of my weekend following the Smugglers around the Northeast. It'll be garage/punk and pop, with movies, books and other obsessions thrown in. > >A few friends of mine live in the Boston area and have played in various >bands. I hear it's a great rock 'n' roll city. HA!! No, I guess it's okay. I hear it's real hard for bands starting out, becuase there are just so many bands! If a band gets on the right bill, it's great, but if you put, say, a great garage band on an indie rock bill (I can't think of any specific names right now but I know I've seen it happen) the audience can be pretty snotty. Maybe I should give them the benefit of the doubt and call them "reserved".

Andrea ------------------------------ From: TweeKid@aol.com Date: Mon, 9 Sep 1996 09:45:26 -0400 Subject: Hideout Records and Record Profile Magazine Two questions, one post. First up, has anyone ever released a compilation of the records on Hideout Records? Of course I am speaking of Detroit based Hideout label that released records by Torquays, Pleasure Seekers, Fugitive, the Last Herd and the like. I know that the label released a singles compilation of their first six 7"s as "The Best of Hideout" LP1002 but that was limited to 1000 copies back in 6T whatever. The reason that this topic came up is because I was going through an old magazine called Record Profile Magazine (RPM) and it included an interview with label head Dave Leone and a complete Hideout/Punch Records disocgraphy. The next questions deals directly with RPM Magazine, how many issues came out? This magazine from the mid-8Ts is probably the best American record collecting based zine that I have ever seen. I've got five or six issues but would love to have the complete set. The issue that I've got in front of me includes the aforementioned Hideout Records article along with articles on Fats Domino, Tommy James, Moses Asch/Folkways Records, Ollie McLaughlin, The Real Kids and more.

I still think that his article was total crap and am not sure where he is coming from there. I did meet Tim and hung out in his room; I wrote about the "infamous penis comment" which, yes, was jokingly (I know I didn't clarify it at the time). I thought, at the time, that he WAS a nice guy; I also found him to have a great stage presence and was in general funny as hell. Mick (Hate-Bombs) and I sat on the bed with him for a while shooting the shit while he massaged Mick's back with his feet...he even gave us some of the more expensive beer. We left the party early to try to weed it out, as things looked as though they may get messy and I just did not want to be involved. I couldn't beleive during Overcoat's set that Tim announced to about 200 people that there was a party at his room! How could he NOT expect people to show up? I know people are making him look like a "big creep" on the bomp list, and he made some of the bands he mentioned look like "big creeps" in his article. I don't really have a point here, I guess I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Treble Fest was undoubtedly the #1 event of my year so far as far as fun goes. I'm totally glad I went and totally glad 360 Twist! put it on. I wish we could all just get along... Andrea P.S. BTW, I will be sending you photos of Element 79 soon and perhaps some $$$ for posters (if you still have them!) Sorry to look for posters so late, but money has been tight! ------------------------------ From: Andrea Lauritzen Date: Mon, 09 Sep 1996 16:22:20 -0400 Subject: Re: Treblefest Article At 11:49 PM 9/5/96, you wrote: > "To be honest, we booked the bands for this festival that we personally >wanted to see," says Daboll.
