Music Shit / Re: GOOD US MUSIC FANZINES?
« on: August 21, 2007, 06:17:49 AM »
Peter Laughner, who played guitar in two of my favourite Cleveland bands Rocket From The Tombs and Pere Ubu, who also jammed with Television and wrote some killer obnoxious punk rants for Creem and other such high quality publications, died 30 years ago. Today while reading a back issue of BACK DOOR MAN w/ a Dead Boys i/v I came across this that I thought I'd share with you in his memory.
PH: Phast Phreddie, interviewer
CH: Cheetah Chrome, motherfucker
ST: Stiv Bators, retard
CH: There's a pretty good chance that we may do a song that Peter Laughner [who was also in RFTT, wrote for Creem and passed away this last summer] wrote that was a Rocket from the Tombs song, that will go on the next album. It's called "Ain't It Fun."
ST: Best part is that it all came true. Everything he wrote in it applied to his life later. Like "Ain't it fun when you're always on the run/ Ain't it fun when you gotta buy a gun." 'Cause he used to carry a gun all the time. The last words in the chorus are "Ain't it fun when you know you're gonna die young."
CH: Peter had these lyrics and he and I wrote the song in just about five minutes.
ST: Ya know what's weird? About two weeks after he died we played somewhere. That was a night a huge fight broke out where Johnny bashed a kid's face open. Some kid came up to me and says "I thought that the other kid was gonna get into the fight, too." I said, "What kid?" He says, "The kid you threw off stage at the Punk Benefit, meaning Peter. I figured the guy just thought he saw someone who looked like him. Stella, Peter's wife, told me once that Peter ain't really dead. That he's probably off having a good time somewhere like Toronto or New York. When we played Toronto another really violent fight broke out. Michael, our roadie, said that when he went through the crowd he went past somebody and he thought it was Laughner. He was gonna say something to him, but he didn't. Then he remembered: hey, he's dead. So he turned around and he couldn't find him. He went all through the crowd looking for him.
CH: He swears to God that he saw him.
ST: So both times at the most violent fights we've had so far, Peter was there.
PH: That's bizarre.
ST: He wanted to join us, too. I remember one time he wanted to join the band. He told me, "Aw, c'mon, I wanna be a Dead Boy."

Music Shit / GOOD US MUSIC FANZINES?
« on: August 21, 2007, 12:03:14 AM »
Rich sent me Z-GUN which is a killer read, but was wondering if you could point me in the direction of fanzines from your country of a similar calibre worth writing to and trying to get imported into mine?
Or, do you know of any decent US punk or hardcore distributors who distro decent fanzines?

Hey, I just updated culthardcore.org. There is a forum there now, if you want to post your trades / wants go ahead. I'll probably be a little more fascistic than most people, I don't want it to turn into a bullshit discussion on "titty appreesh" or whatever other bullshit. Also, the new DISTORT will be posted later this week, thanks for your patience.

In response to Dan Celebrity: the individual issues are US$3 each, but adding paypal fees to that makes it not really worth it, which is why i sell subs. I try to get an issue out at least once a month at the moment...
Upcoming issues include features on GAG REFLEX (old Cleveland hardcore band), FUCKED UP (long i/v regarding the 2xLP), INMATES, CRIMINAL DAMAGE, DARVOCETS, LAUGHING HYENAS, GEHENNA, WARKRIME, JAY REATARD, THE SAINTS, VICTIMS... plenty of stuff in the works...
