Andy, yeah, I know what you're saying...the Lemonheads then instantly faded into multi-platinum obscurity. That's such a great perspective when most people have no idea the band even existed pre-1992.
If anyone bothering to read this hasn't heard t…
Ha! I knew it.
I'm not crazy about Michael Jackson or modern-day indie rock, but I will sing the SHIT out of some prime Manilow.
Burd, you nailed me.
I write the songs that make the whole wooooorld siiiing....
ahhhh Bullet Lavolta,their 1st 12" almost bordered on being the new Jerry`s Kids !!! Then they hit the UK with the Lemonheads & they both fell away.....those were the days lol
What gets me is people forget that punk/hardcore was NOT a private party…

Glad you like the vintage photos from my early 80s parties---I've got more, including rare flashback photos of your St. Louis band, the Blue Obscure, from 1984. What are you up to these days? Still playing music?
After living in Missouri, San Francisco, and Colorado for 26 years, I moved back to Bloomington last summer. In the mid-1980s, I was the lead vocalist of Lurking Fear, a horror punk/death rock band based in Columbia, MO. Here's our myspace page link:
