"I won't panic, it's just there's... there's no matches left."
1985. Propelled on mistaken optimism and dope I found myself trekking from Valpo to Muncie with a like-minded crew of misfits and reprobates. Hot on the trail of good times and a gig or two, the original intent of the trip escapes me now, but we landed at the Canopics on a beautiful spring day and found ourselves in an almost unimaginable playground. Art! Music! Enthusiastic comrades! Spaces to try it all out. Pretty alien feeling after the claustrophobia and paranoia that made up the Valparaiso… Continue

I keep track of what I listen to, so honestly most of what I give a play is more older music, but these are the ones from the last decade that I listened to the most.

I have a question. My kids go to this alternative hippy school, and they spend the last semester of high-school doing individual projects. My friend's kid is doing a anthropological/sociological study of punk culture and punk community. She will be traveling to a few places in the Spring, including Chicago. I said, " I have an old friend in Chicago who is a smart punk , maybe he has some ideas."
So, do you know of any anarchist bookstores or punk coffee houses or crusty punk venues?
