Thank you Alyssa!  On Tuesday (the 12th, my birthday), DJ Vinny and I drove to NYC for the day, and went shopping.  I ended up with some very very cool shoes!  Don't know about "beck and call", however. . .

As a child in the late 60s I saw a puppet show set to a song which I've not
heard since. Going by my 30+ year old memories, it wasn't real heavy,
sounding something like the Youngbloods. The lyrics were something about
'Shaking Hands with the Sun'. Can anyone ID this?

Also Lazy Old Sun, from the same album.

Just found another one "Midnight Sun" by Arthur Lee. I came across it
looking for a single by The Cybermen because I thought they did a sun song.
Guess I was confused, their single is "She's Raining."

Subject: Waylon track to look for

bummer about Waylon.

for some reason I bought a $4.99 budget Waylon CD called Burning Memories,
very generic looking, and very good. anyway, it has his cover of "Money
(that's what i want)" and some other basic rock songs of that ilk but the
great track to look for, all you downloaders, is "Big Mamou" - it's a Cajun
standard with semi-absurd lyrics about dirty rice and cold black coffee, but
what makes it rock is the drumming on this track - sounds like Mo Tucker
with extra hands, or a 55-gallon drum rolling down a hill.

I got Waylon & jessi's Leather and Lace on vinyl ($.50) recently and
couldn't get past the 3rd song. Am I missing anything?

Anyway, Waylon will be missed, and try to find his version of Big Mamou.

Anachronism alert. "Alternative" was the euphemism for new wave (or, more
accurately, non-commercial stuff. Though to be honest, by the time I left an
even more accurate term for some of the things they played would have been
"stuff that sounds commercial, but doesn't sell for some reason")  at my
college radio station a few years after that. (Joe Belock, if you're out
there, back me up)

Of course, "alternative" came into common usage as a euphemism for punk
influenced heavy metal a few years after that.

Jerry,

If you think we suck so bad, then why the hell are you on this list.
I am not one to look down at a person for their musical taste, but
your love for the dorky cheese metal bands of the 1980s is every
bit as stupid and adolescent as young teenager love for Britney
Spears and N'Sync.

Say what you will about garage rock.  But if you were lucky 
enough to go to a Woggles show, you would know that there's
nothing wimpy.  If you would go to a Cavestomp or a Sleazefest,
you would know that the Rockabilly and Garage Punk movement
are not "fags" that you think we are.  Rockabilly, Garage, Surf,
and Punk are based on rebellion.  This music that you denounce
is what rock n roll is all about.   It is about Rebellion, Partying,
Liberation, and Getting Sex (regardless of whatever YOUR orientation
or anyone else's).

Jerry, you are really the first person that I heard in about a decade
make such a wild claim.  I would suggest that you squeeze 
your pimples, and try to go out and get some.  Don't take this
personally, it is just friendly advice.

Keep Garaging It,
Melvin Little (fan of garage rock)

Greetings,

I was a bit in a hurry when I email y'all about the Brian Jonestown
Massacar.  I enjoyed the show.  It was the jangly guitar pop that
I get into when I want to take a break from the fuzzed out material
and the organ drone.  The tow opening bands were alright, but 
Brian Jonestown Massacar was much better.  Unfortuantely, 
most of the people seem to like the first two bands, because
they were more indie pop.

There were a few people last night that did some heckling of the
band, and one asshole sprayed beer at them.  One of the guitarist
cussed him out on stage.

Anton is an interesting character.  

I bought "Take It From the Man" last night.

Somehow I get the feeling that this guy's post was supposed to be a joke.  If 
not, then the fact that most of the bands he mentioned took their cues from 
the original "fag band", the New York Dolls (whether said bands are aware of 
it or not) means the joke is actually on him....
