Warped Tour was a blast! NOFX, Anti-Flag, Bad Religion, Flogging Molly, and The Ataris all put on good shows. Hadn't slam danced in years before this; I don't remember it being that tiring.
It looks like Squirtgun is touring this summer (mostly in Europe). I posted the Lafayette date below. Unfortunately, they keep picking dates, that I'm not in town.

Interesting conversation! My biggest problem with playing guitar was my quest for perfection. I felt I had to achieve a certain level of mastery in order to be presentable to an audience. It was one of the things that led me to quit playing with the…
I have lost touch with most things, reality included. I tried quite a while ago to talk to Rick, but failed.

You certainly aren't old! (because that would mean that I am old too!)
A friend's son told me about this place, I was checking out the Purdue section for old friends and found you. Really, how many Lee Riemenschneiders are there????? Knew it HAD to be you. Plus, in your pic, you look exactly the same to me except for your blond hair.
Of course I remember Fred... spent alot of time with you guys in the (gasp) 80's!

Lee?? I can't believe it! We used to date in high school....
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.

Burd, I would never accuse you of being shy about speaking your mind. And I doubt anyone would have thought me anything but a raging snob from way back. And with the anti-Manilow snobbery of the post below, we continue to have plenty in common. FTR:…
John, it didn't seem like good natured to me when I went back and looked. It reeked of pretentious snobbery. Haughtiness. The funny thing is; I'd probably step up and say something if someone was doing it to you. Incidently, there are all sorts of t…
