Maybe my wife has been home too long with the bambino, away from adult contact, but she emailed me this recipe from: http://www.recipesource.com/main-dishes/meat/pork/spam/00/rec0004.html You will note the lack of calorie and fat count. The piece de resistance are the cornflakes. Goes well with a good Aussie shiraz, I would imagine. Bon apetit moggers! French Fry Spam Casserole Yield: 8 servings 1 pack frozen french fries, thawed 2 cups shredded cheese 2 cups s... MORE

Wow, this is like a punk mogger's dream come true! Jeff Nelson of Minor Threat is having a major garage sale on ebay! He's selling 7-inches and posters, as well as test-pressings of Marginal Man and Scream records!!! You've got 4 hours left to snag "MY BEST POSTER EVER!" but more than 1 day to grab anything else. Man, even if you don't have any intention of buying any of it, scope it out just to see the amazing archive of 80's DC punk flyers. They're like straight off... MORE

Like so many of us, MOG has been a godsend, a haven where I have found people who share a similar passion for music. Sure, we all don't like the SAME music, but the fact alone that we're all passionate about music makes MOG so exciting. As a result, I cannot count the number of times that MOGgers have shared their frustrations that the other people in their lives don't quite understand that passion.Examples:"I was lucky if they knew who Faith No More or Stone Roses were ...

So if you want an understand of just how old punk has gotten, a Minor Threat member is now a lawyer. Lyle Preslar, who was younger than the class of 2010 while playing guitar for a seminal punk band (boy do I feel old), has just graduated from Rutgers University School of Law—Newark. Apparently, he's won an award for music law writing, and—get this—he's married to a VH1 executive. In case you were wondering how drastic a change this is from his youth, that's Lyle in the ... MORE

My punk experience started while 12, living in Orange County, California. All the older boys were suddenly listening to Rodney on the ROQ and I was confused and frightened by the furious noises I heard (Circle Jerks, Germs, Black Flag). In fact, it wasn't until I was sixteen that I finally listened to Minor Threat and thought, "This isn't scary at all; in fact, I kinda like it!" Thus began my short, unfortunate, hardcore phase.

Or Straight-edge, or Posi-core, or whatever you call it.
Moment of cynicism: if everyone who says they were into Minor Threat, was really into Minor Threat, they would have sold a million.

Just an observation after watching the crowds tonight. I was at a punk rock show at a local bar that sits across the street from a fancy hotel. There was something going on at the hotel because tour busses kept pulling up and unloading groups of 20somethings decked out in fancy clothes. As they left the bus they would run into the hotel and reemerge an hour or two later to catch the return bus. Every now and then a group would poke their head into the bar to see what was... MORE

I got a pretty good buzz going on at the moment and yet I want to blog about the DC hardcore scene, ironic huh? Regardless of the DC punks attitude about drinking their music spoke to me like few others have in my 42 years on this rock. The power, the energy, the aggresion has in my opinion not been matched in the 27 years since the Bad Brains burst on the scene and changed everything. Unfortunately I wasn't turned on to the DC scene until 1982 or 83 so I missed the first ... MORE

So,I was innocently entertaining my neighbor by going through my 7" collection and thought I would play him this seminal track by those groundbreaking teetotallers Minor Threat as we worked up a thc haze. Well,as happens everytime I drag this single out, I immediately notice the subliminal imagery that glares at me from the portrait of these 4 earnest and drug-free young men. The Ian Mackaye approved artwork for this single includes a blatant ILLEGAL DRUG REFERENCE!Take a... MORE

I decided to skip the way too obvious "Out of Step" and found this lovely live nugget, with a cover of Wire's "12XU" followed by "Small Man Big Mouth".
And doesn't this look like the most fun show ever? I wish I could have seen a show like this.

1) I've heard Sufjan Stevens, the Decemberists, and a few other indie acts that get a lot of support here, and they just don't SING for me. Sorry, I tried, honest. 2) I've not yet delved into past inspirations like Billie Holliday and Etta James. I like what I've heard, just been busy catching up with newer stuff. 3) I haven't been to a concert since summer 2004. I could go to more, really, it's only 3 hours to Lawrence. No excuses. 4) Most of my posts are polls, bec... MORE
