Shirts Off

Don't get much fan mail around here so when it trickles in I don't waste the opportunity to make it fodder for a post. For example:

Since then, I've been impressed by your posting of great old East Bay punk bands and assorted rarities. But I wasn't inspired to write until today. I didn't think anyone else, let alone an NYC-based weblog, even remembered the Brentwoods. I hadn't thought about them in years, and your post was a great, random memory jog from my teenage years of scouring the garage-rock record racks. Thanks so much.

Here's hoping I can turn that jog into a full-on sprint with Billy Childish and Armitage Shanks. This is the best lo-fi rock-n-brawl song anyone will ever have the pleasure of hearing.
