"Whatever happened to the members of Human Sexual Response?" Jeff, I saw Rich Gilbert, I think it was '03 playing with Frank Black at Birdy's. Talked to him after the show and told him about driving to Columbus and Dayton to see HSR and playing Figu…

Avant/Outsider music is music that deconstructs, critiques, or just plain ignores standard musical forms, music which tries to be different and new. This group is for fans and practitioners of that which is somewhat out of the ordinary.

Oh, I forgot, here's my thesis: Johnny is selling himself as caricature and Iggy is selling himself as the real deal. Just imagine Iggy prancing around in the butter commercial's ironic vignettes or imagine Johnny trying to pull off the Ig's I'm-coo…

Hey Phil, thanks for the information on the book of Brian's writings. I ordered it and spent some time with it - some bittersweet time. Thanks for helping to put it together.

Hey, Phil,

I was with an improv group at IU, and sang in an a capella group called "Something Blue" started by Mark Kellam. Entirely possible that we did stealth gigs at the mall -but memory fails me on that. I hung with Eddie Moore, Jyl Sammons, and Brian Baldus, and sat in listening on many a session with 'Betterment' and Sign Language. I'm in the Washington DC area doing web development and Jyl is Richmond (http://www.popmatters.com/music/reviews/s/shiners-bonnie.shtml) and unfortunately suffering from Lupus. I now am married, and have a 5 year old, and some visitors for the innaguration, but will post pics to my profile later this week.. I'm on Facebook, tho, with photos. This interwebs thing is such the time machine!

Hi Phil.
Why the hell don't I remember you? Did you send thought criminals in to wipe my mind, or something.

Fuck...Refresh my memory.....

Your stellar guitar work is featured on two recordings from the atumn of 1984 that I just posted on my page... "Buck Suckers" and "Drum Mask"

Yukki is playing drums and I'm playing bass. This is the stuff John McCool recorded for us in his basement.

For what it's worth, Phil, I did get that message you sent via the message function. I just don't check my home e-mail often enough.
Did you see that you can download their new album here:

Phil- Learning to use these various buttons for responding. Slow learner. I'd meant to send you an email two years ago after finding your website in a fruitless search for Mr. Gipson's whereabouts. But I am slackness.

Anyhow, always good to hear the Guano Bros. again!

Hey Phil - great collection of pix you've posted! And you've floated thru a wonderful lineup of bands over the years. You again graced us with your tasty musical work with JT&TMW the other night live on 'FHB. Sweet.

Very cool getting to see you guys—now your 'avatar' makes even more sense to me...! Thanks again for everything—including the recording: I already listened to all but the last track and am very glad I did.

This is Mars Needs Women's, first band name. We got our flyers torn down Kirkwood by some Jaycee guy I remember, wearing his little red vest.

I'm all for MFT and the artists both making some money whether it's NP or not. I'm glad there is another way of getting us out there. If I would have sold an album in the 80s, I remember most little labels and artists would be happy to sell their t…

PJ- I thought of that too! I could use a new Ping hat. We aren't too far down the road of the NP thing to turn back. But John is right, if we can find a way to funnel money to artists then I'm all about having MFT make some of that transaction. It…

I tried to watch 100 Ways but I could feel my life force draining. Haven't the Japanese made some horror films about this video?
