Rachel, everyone will be very friendly and polite to you, but if you get a rental car just know that people drive like shit here. Also take I-70 to Lawrence, not 435, and make sure you get off at the West Lawrence exit.don't know if we will be at rooftop vigilates or sexbeet first, but will post again later today.

Anyone that wants to meet up, let me know. I'm coming from from NYC and I'm not sure what to expect (from the city/people not bands)!!! Also, any after parties?

2720 Cherokee - never been there. I might be able to swing that. Thanks for the heads up, Ryan. Keep me in mind if there are other regional fests in the future that you're debating about. With a little forethought, I can get involved. This one snuck up on me since I was entangled with the Shanks tour/Gonerfest.

Hey Dave, KK/Shrines along w/ Gentlemen Jesse will be playing St. Louis Sunday night. Maybe you can catch them then?

I know several people who have lived in Lawrence and testify to it's coolness. I'd love to go to this but can't due to circumstances. I missed seeing the Lamps and Thee Oh Sees at Goner and would like to catch Tyvek and KK & the Shrines. I got the fever but I'm quarantined.

F You: Scout Niblett.

F me: Avril Lavigne

F you: Exene Cervenka

F me: Katy Perry
F you: Joan Jett

Fu*k Me: Christina Aguilera

Fu*k You: Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, Le Tigre)

I once heard Chrissie Hynde say something in an interview that went a little like this:

"In rock music, as a woman artist...   it's not all about fu*k me...   it's all about fu*k you!"


I found this comment to be quite poignant and have had many discussions with friends regarding it. We have divided woman musicians into two distinct camps...   the fu*k me's...   and the fu*k you's. Obviously, Chrissie Hynde is in the fu*k you camp. A "musician" (and I use the term loosely) in the fu*k me camp would be someone like Britney Spears...  you know, one of those packaged singers put together by the industry. So, let's make a list here...  I will start:


Fu*k Me: Debbie Harry (Blondie)

Fu*k You: Rachel Nagy (Detroit Cobras)




I know Debbie Harry was not a packaged product...   and I love her band...   but I had a HUGE crush on her back in high school!

....killer!!!!!!!!

Your life will better then !

I agree with John http://steveterrell.blogspot.com/2010/08/terrells-tune-up-gunk-it-up.html

Check out "We Never Learn", I enjoyed it a lot . The timeline is 1988-2001, good bands, fast read.

Does anyone have suggestions for a good garage punk book?

Saw then open for X in Santa Fe a couple of years ago. They were great.

Oh YESSS!! I love them too!! Great stuff! :D

I discovered this cool band a few years ago and simply LOVE them...   I can't stop listening to their records. I think Rachel Nagy has a smokin' hot, super sexy voice! Who else digs this band?

Fantastic film. Fantastic band.
