  • Corporate Spew!
    Right next to Bette Midler and Hootie und the Blowfish! Cool!

• ANTIETAM
  • Glenn's fave

  • "Famous for feedback and flippers."
    Tara Key at the Broadway Arcade, November 1, 1991

• THE FEELIES
  • The Feelies need a decent home page, a thoroughly exhaustive and loving reference, SO bad.

    Tell me if you know of one.

• LUNA
  • Personal hygiene, drumming, etc
  • Interview with Dean Wareham over at YCDW.
  • Galaxie 500 - Luna - Damon & Naomi
    If you like Luna, chances are you like G500, Dean W's previous band, even though they didn't rock out as often, or as hard.
    Big hunk of Luna info here as well.

• WAKE OOLOO
  • I sometimes think these guys are better than the Feelies, Feelies distillate, freebase Feelies. They apparently got off to something of a shaky start, but they've found their voice, and their 2 CDs and their live shows these days are tremendous.

  • Nice interview over at YCDW.

• WILD CARNATION
  • "Well, it's his own FAULT!" -- Brenda Sauter

    Of all the x-feelies bands, these guys are farthest from being my cup of meat, but they still beat most bands hands down. I've seen them live bunches, and if they rocked just a little bit more, I'd no doubt love em to pieces.

    They've got a CD out and their label, Delmore, has got some info on them.

• SONIC YOUTH
  • Tunings! Larn yerself Sonic Youth

  • Sonic Youth AIDS Benefit
    Sonic Youth / David Johansen / Debbie Harry / John Giorno / Penny Arcade / Karen Finley / Lou Barlow

    Academy(?), NYC, October 11, 1990, by Mike Arietano

  • Young Youth+Sonic Neil!!
    Neil Young & Sonic Youth, Nassau Coliseum, February 22, 1991, by Mike Arietano
  • If you're really into SY, This is where you should go. Really.
    "as most people that know me know, sonic youth are my favorite band," sez Michael. Every scrap of info in the universe about SY, all collected in one place. How convenient!
  • The official Sonic Youth Geffen page

  • Sonic Youth [IUMA]

• Dream Syndicate

The first punk rock explosion

• TELEVISION/RICHARD HELL/HEARTBREAKERS
  Toshi's Blank Generation Web has got it completely right:
  "...and the Blank Generation Scene was born in NYC."

• PATTI SMITH
  • a patti smith babelogue
    Awesome awesome awesome, and just chock FULL of goodies; the best web site devoted to an artist that I've ever seen? Yeah, really, I think so... Maybe this is patti fan gush talking, maybe there are sites for dylan fans or whatever that are as thorough and tasteful and elegant, respectful and loving and warm, pages that bring out in them the same "oh, wow!" that this site does in me... Still and all, a beautiful thing.

    While you're there, look for info about babel-list, a wonderful Patti Smith mailing list.

  • TALKING HEADS
    • Lots and lots and LOTS of Talking Heads info
      An adjunct to the heads mailing list. Pretty slick.
      

    • Talking Heads / Alex Chilton, CBGB, NYC, April 1977
      A reconstruction, by Stefanie Brooks and me...

  • DEAD BOYS
    The Dead Boys don't yet have their own web page, but they (and a whole mess of equally interesting bands and hipsters) do turn up in the pretty-amazingly-on-target and totally goofball book/site The Death of Rock 'n' Roll: Untimely Demises, Morbid Preoccupations and Premature Forecasts of Doom in Pop Music

  • RAMONES
    Rockaway Beach "There isnt much in here right now because I was waiting to get more stuff."

  Power Pop - The little genre that couldn't

  • BEACH BOYS
    
    • "Who was Brian Wilson, and when and in what capacity did he work with the Beatles?"

    • Heroes and Villains Online

  • BIG STAR
    
    • There's an excellent little zine called Back of a Car devoted to Big Star. $5, it's put out by the phenomenonally industrious and accomplished Judith Beeman.

      If you can't find BOAC in the local head shop, drop jb a note. Her address is beeman@istar.ca.

    • The first reunion, some dirt.

    • Big Star Fillmore Reunion, The Fillmore, San Francisco, June 5, 1994, 8pm

    • The Big Star Homepage
      Great Big Star pages springing up all over the place. This one's got really detailed guitar tabs and lyrics, as well as some pictures and things. Very nice.

    • Chris' Big Star Page
      Likewise way decent and likewise full of lyrics, pix and chords, maybe more extensive than than the above, even. Lots of pages devoted to related and semi-related bands (Teenage Fanclub, Jellyfish, etc).

    • Dear 23, Posies and Big Star home page
      There's not a whole heckuva lot about Big Star here, and the pages don't seem to get updated very often...

  • Loud Family home page

  • the dBs
    Chris Stamey + She Never Blinks, Knitting Factory, NYC, May 28, 1994, 9pm

  The alternative is the mainstream

  And we love it...
