The last time I arranged to see a gig in Nottingham Rock City, it got cancelled because the venue deemed that not enough tickets had been sold and would therefore move the gig to the neighbouring Rescue Rooms. That gig was Einstuerzende Neubauten and I can understand exactly why they cancelled because after visiting [...]

Resist all the urges that make you want to go out and kill... One of my favorite songs of all-time. They put on a great live show, too. They're in my top three with Butthole Surfers and Orbital. There's a neat little animated version here, but I can't stand the fact that they used a 'radio edit' for it. When you're used to the album version, it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to hear the cuts....

BY JONATHAN VALANIA First thing you should know is that what I am about to tell you violates a solemn pact that was made by all involved: Whatever happens in 1987 stays in 1987. I grew up in Pennsyltucky — Allentown, PA, to be exact — and by the time I was getting to the [...]

There’s some as might say that I’m trying to recapture my long distant youth. And there’s some as might say that I never actually grew up. There’s even some folk as might say that there’s a time to live and a time to die but you should smoke Elvis Presley’s toenails if you wanna get high! That’s right, [...]

Outstanding fan video Butthole Surfers are hands-down the greatest live act I've ever seen. I fell off them a while ago, so I'm not sure how they're holding up these days. Their Summer '08 Tour should tell. Back in the mid-1980s, there was a kid that was part of the hardcore scene in New Orleans who was very ill. He had some sort of muscular disease and it was really hard for him to get around. He...
