how the hell is there no thread for The Weirdos? CLASSIC of course

Sadly, word going around that Dix Denney has passed.

And if you need starting points, go nuts:

Those two comps alone, as noted upthread -- amazing.

I used to put "Life of Crime" on a lot of mix tapes ...

aw man I was just listening to them yesterday

Here's a link to a homemade best-of (1977-1980) that I made, including six bootleg-only tracks and two (vastly) superior live takes from a rare CD

If they had released a full LP of this amazing shit back in the day, they would be even more revered than they already are.

Thanks for that -- a fine little bonus!

RIP Dix . Gone too soon
