Long time, no hear.  It's funny, but I near-flamed the prolific Gloria, and
then thought better of it....:
 
radition get?

>>        Gloria Monti
>>        Yale University

So what are your hot picks these days?  Here's mine:
 
5-8 [e.p.]
        Great Athens Band; incredibly gifted and deranged singer
Archers of Loaf, "Icky Mettle"
        Great live band.  Nearly flawless record IMHO
Mekons, "I [heart] Mekons"
        Also responsible for my "show of the year" in town.
Crowsdell (2x7")
        Good live band from Jacksonville; opening for 'em Friday night.
 
 
 
Tell me how you are, fella.
 
yr pal, merlin
 
p.s., if you're really cool you'll join me in referring to the singer for
the Lemonheads as "Dando Calrissian: Mayor of Crowd City."
 
p.p.s. Happy Whatever-fucking-holiday-your-thin-skinned-religion-let's-you-have!
