  Is it really still uncool amongst music crit types to like late period Black Flag? I thought that was one of those reactionary things, where kids who grew up punk were so allergic to metal they hated stuff that even sounded like what they thought metal might sound like. I think Slip It In and My War are their best stuff. And Black Flag are one of my favorite bands, so that puts those albums pretty high on the list for me.
  
  Gregg Ginn stops by occasionally to play the city I live in, and we don't get a ton of high profile live acts, so that should be great for me. He's graduated from punk to jam rock, though, and jam is maybe the only style of music I explicitly hate. It's like some kind of horrible practical joke.
  
  Never cared for Rollins or the Rollins Band either. I lot of the music that I listen to is macho bullshit, but something about his macho bullshit in particular rubs me the wrong way.

  The Morris/Cadena eras get the most ink. When I was growing up, admitting you liked IN MY HEAD lumped you immediately in with the Monte Carlo driving, Budweiser drinking, Mullet rocking, SOD listening metalheads. The rest is for the memoirs.
  
  I love the first GONE record, too. But, yeah, I always preferred jelly over jam.

  Great writing and killer design, Stu! LHP is looking more and more like the best fucking zine I've seen/read in YEARS! But I'm a 'Damaged' man myself.

  If that's Stumptown coffee, you should be arrested.

  This review made August worth living. If you'd just waited a day longer, I would have been gone.
