If You Want To Rebel Against Society,

I've Had People Call Me From Bands That Are Very Popular, And They're Like, "what Do We Do? We Want To Do What You Do." It's Almost Impossible To Do What I Do, Because You Would Have To Start In 1980. You Can't Just Do It.

I Have Thousands Of Tapes, And Photos And Fliers, Letters, Posters, Artwork - Basically Everything That Ever Happened, I Kept. I'm Not A Hoarder, Though. I'm Sort Of A Librarian.

One Aspect Of Our Site That I Really Appreciate Is How I Put Up As Much Information As I've Been Able To Keep Track Of: Dates, The Venue, The City, The Country, The Number Of People There, The Door Price, Opening Bands, That Sort Of Thing. One Of The Very First Comments We Had Was From A Guy Who Said, "by The Way, The Opening Band In Albany In 1993 Was Not The Very Nice Neighbors, It Was The Very Pleasant Neighbors." That Brought A Great Joy To Me.

Why Do We Celebrate The Opening Of A Bar So Much?

I'm A Fifth Generation Washingtonian And I Was Born And Raised Here. My Kid's A Sixth Generation Washingtonian. Honestly I Wish People Didn't Move Because I Love The People Of The City.
