Punk drummers can talk? Who knew? "Does anybody know what time it is? We got 20 minutes left, we can play Louie Louie for 20 minutes ... Alright our next song is: All you kids laugh through your hands; fuck you, daddy, 'coz I am, The Son of Sam."<br /><br />Richard can't sing worth a damn, but isn't that what punk is all about? He incidentally happens to be one of the most amusing/acerbic people I've ever met... and a poetic genius. (If you happen to go for that kind of stuff. Some do. "Kerouac's a square!")<br /><br />VOM (all caps, please) did have a good rhythm section and excellent songwriting going for 'em. Credit where credit, etc. <br /><br />thanks for posting this!<br />- bonzie anne<br /><br />PS: @Anonymous: What life? Get over it!<br /><br />PPS: I would love love love it if you could somehow acquire the board tape for the first Samoans gig, 10/30/78 at The Rio, with The Aliens (sans Roky). Billy Angel (nee Miller) had the board tape ca. 2000, but never posted it on his (now defunct) web site. It is guaranteed to provide a quantum leap in the hilarity level for humanity overall; and I would really like to know for certain just how much damage Tony Conn was doing to the lyrics for "I'm In Love With Your Mom", besides wondering just how IIIII was doing the first time I'd ever played in front of an audience!<br /><br />PPPS: "Most peculiar it is, to find that the vidcap for 'Electrocute Your Cock' is… my back."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2053342434437778011.post-11931081176102716842011-02-07T21:31:35.443-08:002011-02-07T21:31:35.443-08:00VOM ruined my life.VOM ruined my life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
