evening in stalingrad
the rest quoted from brian mcdonald on the inland list...
> Fra.. ur, Glenn joined
> Jo..ur, Glenn and things got goin'. John promptly asserted that something
> terrible was going to happen if anyone yelled out "Badger Song"... he
> didn't mention to WHOM this curse would fall upon, but the audience
> courteously didn't chance it. Franklin stayed mostly electric and quiet
> playing single lines over John's frenetically "strummy" style..(well, I
> guess that's what the Extra Glenns do after all). They too did a
> Springsteen cover... and STILL no Robert Hilburn in sight. hmmmmm> "Badger Song" was not performed... so live with it.

accounts have been a bit screwy lately and i have lost some info. thanks.
02.23.96
i understand that the mountain goats will have a song on a compilation
called K7 (i think) on slowball records. other artists should include:
nothing painted blue, push kings, will simmons, wio, napkinv vs. soda,
bingo trappers, brown towers, phlegm, in a spring, and some
others...maybe even something from me so make sure and buy it whenever it
comes out because it's being put out by jonas sevenius and he's a great guy!!
02.23.96
well, let's see, i have a new essay by
john from jaboni youth #4, i have also gotten
an interview with him from for paper airplane

these...
i finally got my own personal copy of yam, the king of
crops from oska (thanks jod). and i also got the cactus gum 7"
compilation cyanide guilt trip which has a
remarkable cover if i may say so myself...
jordan ellenberg has sent me the chords to a few zopilote songs, but i
haven't gotten around to putting them in yet..it will be soon
though...that's it for now...stay tuned. i'm learning java and plan to
have a comment / voting kind of thing up here within a month or two....

i got the basement tapes from kspc in claremont, and thanks to
bill foreman, i have copies of songs for petronius and taboo vi: thehomecoming.
then russell at theme park was kind enough to dub corkscrewed for me (i'll
