Heck...He sure got out there to sell this thing....<br /><br />Heckfire - he was even on the Great White North's National(ized) Radio Network. Which was OK but not that insightful or interesting mostly because the fill-in host was a <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/q/blog/2011/08/04/bob-mould-on-q-uncut/" rel="nofollow">wee bit clueless.</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.soundopinions.org/shownotes/2011/072211/shownotes.html" rel="nofollow">His appearance with DeRogatis and Kot on WBEZ</a> was much better...I, too, found it interesting how gentle he went on Hart and the derisiveness he had for Norton's choice to play more golf than bass well before the break-up.<br /><br />I also found his description of how he might have pushed too hard on tune choices such that it squelched overall band creativity to be fascinating and a reasonable measure of his efforts to be honest. <br /><br />Finally, I really did dig the fact that he still considers Huskers (as he calls it) to have been the very best band of its time.<br /><br />And ya, when he talked about how they worked together when they were at their furious peak... Well, that was exhilarating to contemplate - Even now, twenty five years later.<br /><br />.<br /><br />.RossKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07677239332112652522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215493615229181701.post-474010777683914422011-08-24T17:02:58.422-04:002011-08-24T17:02:58.422-04:00jeff- thanks for the commentjeff- thanks for the commentNazz Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03722964855836770177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215493615229181701.post-25013534093567829932011-08-21T14:49:56.555-04:002011-08-21T14:49:56.555-04:00Your comments about The Ramones made me smile to m...Your comments about The Ramones made me smile to myself. I am a big Warren Zevon fan. I think his songs are brilliant with the perfect blend of insight and humor. But I also know what a total bastard he was in real life which is why, even though I bought his tell-all biography about 2 years ago, it is still sitting on my shelf unread.<br /><br />Also, as a gay man I am not surprised that BM's book doesn't dwell on it overly much. Being gay is a part of who I am - a big part - but certainly not the only part and probably not even the biggest part. If I had to pick, Rock and Roll had a bigger role in shaping the person I am today than did my sexuality. Without having read the book I am thinking it is probably very much the same for him.YankeeBoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077959975128794185noreply@blogger.com
