Peter PS: The Film & Sound Archives here in Canberra sold off their massive non- Aussie record collection to the public last weekend.

I was surprised at the condition of a lot of the records too - masking tape on the seams, writing all over them, the vinyl itself scratched and trashed, but still with $5-$10 price tags!

Blair wrote: <> Blair, I saw the Fleshtones about a month later in Baltimore, and I can report that same lameness. In fact, if I remember correctly Gordon quit the band right around the time you saw that show (I asked Zaremba about that very issue in August and he seemed to remember October '88 being his last show--though I've since read show reviews from '89 that mention Gordon, so...). Anyway, Fred Smith was playing bass about as woodenly as you could imagine, Gordon was gone...wow, I remember thinking that night that the Fleshtones were hanging on by a thread. The fact that they are still around playing great, tight shows is, as we all know, great and amazing. (BTW at a Bayou show in DC around '86/'87 Gordon stormed off the stage during a song, walked out the front door, and never came back...). __________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 19:31:20 EST From: Cavestomp@aol.com Subject: Blair Calls 'Em Like He See's 'Em... Hey Blair- No apology necessary, we weren't just in need of improvement, WE SUCKED! And that Bethlehem PA. show (from what I can remember, because we drank ourselves into near blackouts) was even worse. Not a period l'm at all proud of. I look back on that time and cringe with regret and embarrassment. After that Bethlehem show, I was never able to look JT in the eye again. That following morning we were guests on Bill Kelly's show on WFMU and someone called in, and on the air said, "I saw you guys last night!" And I said, "Yeah?" And he said, "Yeah... you were frightening!" I'll never forget that. Live and learn... - -Jon ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 19:16:50 -0800 (PST) From: willie little Subject: Re: Night Flite Greetings, I'm going to get "Outta the Nest" by the Vipers! I remember Carol Taylor playing the hell out of the Vipers on WNOR FM 99. Eventhough WNOR played mostly mainstream boring rock, they had a kick ass Punk/ New Wave/60s and 80s Garage Rock Show hosted by Carol Taylor. She'd played the best music anyone could ever played. I lived in Ahoskie, NC, but the radio station was in Norfolk, VA. I heard many local greats like the Waxing Poetics and the Mockers. She even played the Bangles when they were actually post punk and cool. The only time I was irritated with her is when she made a negative remark about the Smiths. Morrisey rules! This is a great list. I'm glad I accidently stumbled across it. It's bringing back to the days of the cool radio stations and what not. College radio isn't what it used to be. Keep the Garage Loud!

And they all sounded pretty great. Has anyone bought this monster? Is it worth going deeper in debt to pick up? ______________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 22:54:21 -0500 From: William H Jones Subject: Fave Gigs Here's a few of mine... REM / English Beat / Squeeze - Nassau Coliseum - Long Island (1982) The first "farewell tour" for Squeeze, and first time I ever saw REM. Don't recall much about 'em, other than I dug their jangly guitars. English Beat were fun, and Squeeze were great. Ramones - My Father's Place - Long Island (1983) My first Ramones gig, circa Subterranean Jungle. I got a bloody nose during my first slam-dancing excursion and wore it like a badge of honor. : - ) The Vipers - The Dive - NYC (1984/85) Saw 'em a few times at this small joint, which seemed to be the home of NY garage rock in the mid-80s. Totally blown away by Surprise Surprise, Cheated & Lied, and the most amazing cover of Shot Down (featuring J. Weiss on sax). Hoodoo Gurus - The Ritz - NYC (1986) Blow Your Cool tour - great show with the most rockinest Aussies at their peak. Husker Du - The Ritz - NYC (1987) The only time I ever saw them, during the Warehouse Songs & Stories tour. They opened with New Day Rising which was the most powerful rock and roll sound I'd ever heard. Dead Kennedys - West Catasaqua Playground Building - Allentown, PA (1987?) Lots of fun, tiny place, tons of youngsters, sweaty punk rock, stood right in front of the band and joined a few other guys in trying to hold back the masses from pitching onto the band! The Secret Service - CBGB - NYC (1987/88) They played a number of shows there, the best of which was probably 11/20/87, while headlining to a full house. Wayne Manor at his most soulful and probably their best demonstration of power and volume. Peter Gabriel - Festhalle - Frankfurt, Germany (1992) An awe-inspiring performance during the Secret World tour, amazing theater combined with passionate music. Special bonus for my first live show outside the U.S. The Montgomery Cliffs - Cafe Tattoo - Baltimore (1997) After being away from rock & roll clubs for a number of years, this 3-piece band from NY with sharp suits and skinny ties reminded me why seeing a great live band is one of the most enjoyable experiences one can have. Bruce Springsteen - MCI Center - Washington, D.C. (1999) The first and only time I've seen "The Boss" and he did not disappoint. 3-1/2 hours with a legend... I would probably have a ton of Mosquitos gigs on my list, but perhaps my favorite was the first time I saw 'em at Sparks in Huntington (early '83, I think). I bought a demo tape and snagged a free T-shirt tossed into the crowd by their manager "Brother Scotto" Savitt. Another favorite was their record release carnival at Irving Plaza. One memorable gig was a show they co-headlined with The Vipers at The Ritz in March, 1985. They played often at Irving Plaza, which was nearly the same size, but this felt like they had stepped up to the major leagues - too bad they didn't stay there. : - ( Be seeing you, Bill ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 06 Feb 2000 23:32:47 -0600 From: Alyssa & Chris Subject: The Cutting Edge Tapes......
