	  Hey, all you SST label fans, ( you Minutemen, you Husker Dudes,
       you Meat Puppeteers ) their bands are touring to promote SST.
       Catch it if you can.
	  I just read an interview with the Minutemen in the LA Weakly
       and they said there next album will be called  Project:Mersh.

          They have had a hard time getting airplay because of
       their style ( no fade-outs, no choruses, no cutesy lyrics)
       so they have taken the appropriate steps to leap out into
       commercialism ( Mersh: a name for "commercial" marijuana
       grown in the states for domestic sale). Even though their
       "Double Nickels on a Dime" was their biggest seller at
       10,000 copies, they were bemoaning the fact that Journey
       makes more promo discs than that.

	 Hulk Hogan was recently seen on that Wrestling show wearing a
       Husker Du T-shirt. I bet the guys in Husker Du could kick Cindy
       Lauper's ass. Just for fun, of course.

	  A new neat band from Austin, TX ------ > Scratched Acid
       They've got a hip thing called "Cannibal". Isn't Guadalcanal
       Diary from Tex-ass, too? It sure is strange where the "new"
       pockets of talent emerge from. Minneapolis? Australia? Texas?
       I think as soon as one band is found, the other blood-sucking
       talent scouts swarm the area. If they swarmed by themselves,
       instead of following the herd, I wonder how many nifty things
       would be popping up. I guess whichever geographical area is "hot"...
