Tim, is it 'no wave' or 'no-wave'?
Tim, did I ever send you a package from when you sent me those issues of your magazine 4 years ago?

Gygax!, I pretty much stopped eating at Roberto's...wait...Alberto's...I pretty much stopped eating at all of the 'berto's probably not too long after becoming a vegetarian around 1989 (lard in the beanz, or so it is believed, anyway!). (I actually started eating meat again just a year ago.)
The first issue of Rock Mag! (1992) contained a bunch of short little pieces of writing. Uh...the basic gist of the issue is that I wanted indie-rock to be more rock and roll oriented at the time. The last two essays are about rock and roll and colors.Then album reviews in the back. (I reviewed Of Thick Tum!)
Ally, I do not know about whether George Bush was deep throat. I certainly would like to know.
And Dan, I'm gonna go with "No Wave" (captitalized) if you're talking about the original scene, "no wave" if you're talking about how the first Ruins album was a no wave rekkerd!

Take sides on a couple of these like a playoff tree:
Lake Of Dracula vs. REM
Pink Floyd vs. Night Soil Man
― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 12 August 2004 02:28 (nineteen years ago) link
Gygax!, remember when REM were on the cover of Rolling Stone ca. Lifes Rich Pageant and the heading said "America's Best Rock and Roll Band?" Word. Lake of Dracula were better than the Scissor Girls. The Pink Floyd were the greatest of all psychedelic rock bands, while Night Soil Man were the Jane's Addiction of San Diego.

I only ever read one issue of Rock Mag but I liked it a lot. It was the one with the ELP as "No Wave" article. That was a hoot.
Also it had that really kick-ass Alan Licht piece about Easter Everywhere. That guy should do more writing.

(By the way, I'll bet you did not know that Mark Tucker who did the great '70s/'80s private press LPs Batstew and In the Sack changed his name at some point to T. Storm Hunter and goes by the nickname Stormy. He is a nice guy.

Generally overlooked in the ex-Beatle's solo discography, 1982's GONE TROPPO finds George Harrison flirting with radio-friendly, synth-driven pop hooks of the early-1980s, while still demonstrating his penchant for great, timeless melodies. The opener, "Wake Up My Love," establishes the light, breezy tone of the album, which continues through the Caribbean-via-Fab Four vibe of the title track. The languid love song "Unknown Delight" and the goofy doo-wop of "I Really Love You," which recalls Beatles novelty numbers such as "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)," vary the record's feel and pace. The 2004 reissue includes an acoustic demo version of the song "Mystical One," which is arguably--given its intimacy and stripped-down production--the album's strongest track.

Hola Tim,
I was listening to a podcast that mentioned that Night Soil Man for undisclosed reasons that 2 members of the band refused to talk about.
A quick perusal of the LA Times site circa 1990 mentions that The Pulltoys singer Scott Ireland broke his neck during a video shoot. NSM singer Rosebud was romantically involved with Scott but no idea why those dudes would refuse to mention anything about this accident on the podcast 25 years later.
Do you have the scoop?
