Chris Davidson and Becky Ebenkamp are our resident TV-rock scholars, and they have turned up some wild facts about shoulda-been and kinda-were stars like The Impossibles, Cattanooga Cats (the REAL heirs to the Parsons-era Byrds!), Josie and the Pussycats, the Beagles, the Chan Clan and of course the B. Splits. Trust me, you're all going to be amazed. Kim http://surf.to/Scram out soon: Scram #11, featuring Greg Shaw and Gene Sculatti on sixties rock zines, Johnny Ramone spills his guts, The Chamber Strings, Danish industrial parks, The Embrooks, Bob Newhart in concert, "My Boss...

There are plenty of excellent bands in the sunshine state, but some are probably just not strictly garage, (or too well known outside their town). . . . I don't live down there anymore, but go visit often and keep in touch with old pals in eff-ell-lay. . . . Recent releases worth of note -- Rob McGregor - "Valentine" --new CD from the leader of Gainesville veteran outfit Grain, reminds me of Neil Young and Crazy Horse at their most distortion-drenched. Panthro UK UNited 13 (I have no idea what the name stands for) - "Sound of a Gun" --Naked Raygun-esque punk attack, also from G'ville. Again, neither of the above two are really garage, but they're definitely rock 'n' roll. . . . BUT THEN . . . . There's Miami's Trash Monkeys, who have been around for what seems like forever, and are still plugging at it. They used to do an amazing cover of "Yummy Yummy." To this date, I still don't think they have a full-length CD or LP out. They're definitely Bomp-worthy, as are Ft. Lauderdale's Drug Czars. Check out their 7" "Go Go Satan!" But none of this is to detract from the greatness of the Hatebombs, with whom I greeted 2000 at the Kit Kat in Orlando. . . .

I >understand he has no desire to play in the States, anyway. Touring Europe is >more his bag. I will sadly mention that when Deniz Tek played in DC, the crowd was maybe 100 people and he was stunning, just fantastic. When I told people what they missed they said they didn't recognize his name! I mean, it's DeniZ, how can you not recognize that? So if they get the crowds in europe they should just go for it. favorite garage gigs: #1. Cramps- New Years 1988- Warner Theater, DC (I broke up with myu girlfriend like 10 days earlier and it was an amazing fresh start) #2. A-Bones/ Fender Benders - DC Space, DC 1990? The A-bones played a monumental set, people were collapsing on the floor from dancing too hard, Billy(?) or maybe the older guitarist rode on their sax player's shoulders, they played for nearly 2 hours. AND, AND, the original Wraymen opened as the Fender Benders, a band name they used either before or during their back up stint with Link (I may be confusing shows here) and it was the first time I really saw people play truly old-style guitar. in the sense that every modern garage guitarist just can't copy. people were drenched with sweat from all the dancing. How long has it been for me to be at a show when the crowd was drenched with sweat from too much dancing? 3. Cynics - Roxy, February? 1988. The first Cynics headliner show I saw, they opened for a DC band and they were great but still shaky in (Nov 87?) but by the second show they did (which may actually have been at the Safari Club in DC, I forget) they were doing really well and personel arguments were at a minimum. 4. ? and the Mysterians, Black Cat, DC, 1998? I am not sure when this show was, but it was the first time I saw them since I missed the cavestomp show. Again, they played nearly 2 hours with non-stop intensity. 5. Cynics/Brood - DC Space Summer 1988? A very good show for both bands, a scenester event for me, I remember this amazing crowd with everyone talking to each other. There was a Cynics/Vile Cherubs show that was really good that same year. They played approx 8 shows in DC in 1988. I edited out all the non-garage shows. Joan Jett/Mia Zapata/ Mia's murder >No. There was a huge article about the case in the Seattle Times one Sunday >about a year ago (?), probably on or about the anniversary of the murder, >and as I recall it seemed pretty hopeless. without saying too much, she had been fighting with 2 different guys before she died and unless one of them confesses there is not enough physical evidence to charge. ther ewill be no real "movement" on the case if you catch my drift. the cops think they found the guy AFAIK, but there's no real evidence. Joan's band with the Gits was Evil Stig. The gits band without Mia was the long name- Dancing French Liberals of 42 or something. Joan is from around where I grew up.

Serisawa" Subject: the Gits The project Joan Jett got involved with the members of the Gits is called Evil Stig and there is one CD out. I'm not going to talk on the murder (it's been seven years now) but I still listen to the Gits a lot, probably more often than any other band really. On the internet there was a touching article on Mia by an ex-member of the Gits, and if you are a Gits fan and haven't checked that, you really should read it. But that article disappeared for some reason (it's on one of the stupid geocites pages) and I couldn't find it again right now. Anyway, I have it in my computer so let me know by e-mail if any of you are interested in. The only good Gits-influenced band in my opinion is Tilt with Cinder Block, whose lyrics are very smart with full of imagination. Their new album called "Viewers Like You" is the best work they have ever done.
