high points.

and in stores in August], "You Got Away With It (A Tale of Two Fraternity
Brothers)" is the story of every piggish frat boy I ever met, the kind who

president.

VHS "Dutch Tape" [bootleg video] I found this weeding through a box of video I've had in storage since 1989 and can't for the life of me remember where I got it or even having watched it before. A fair amount of what's on it turned out to be Beat Club (German TV) performances which are now circulating in much better quality thanks to VH-1. But much of it is concert footage from Dutch TV and new to me. Among the revelations: The Rolling Stones were not the best live band Dick Taylor ever played in. Not by a long shot. The Small Faces were a riot in concert. Jimmy Page was reinventing guitar playing well before Led Zeppelin (Yardbirds stuff is amazing!). The Monks are the best garage band I'd never heard of. You could blackmail The Lords with this (for their wardrobe, not their playing) if it weren't for the fact that The Snobs appear on the video as well. And if you didn't want your daughter dating a Rolling Stone, you didn't want her within 100 kilometers of The (Dutch) Outsiders.
