  • The stuff here with the Accelerators is just terrific!

  • OtherMothers gig is at the Grean Bean, Elm St , downtown Greensboro.

  • For those interested, The OtherMothers, featured in the last part of this vid have re-joined and playing a gig in Greensboro on the 11th of April. The venue has already been changed (waiting to hear where) because of the huge response of this gig. I'll post where as soon as I hear. Come feel young again ya geezers!

  • Also- I KNOW Dexter, and HE IS a GENIUS... but the rest of the lot .... welll .......

  • NOT sour grapes ! My grandaddy died and left me millions !!! I don't give a darn I did not make it... the truth .. IS .... everything I said. Comboland was a myth and the really really RADICAL bands from Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Winston-Salem and Asheville were ignored by the intelligentsia and cliques of Ral/CHill/Durham ... so there.. swallow and don't SPIT AMY !!!!!!! ! ! ! !

  • It was The Brewery...

  • Oh, and I was at the Comboland taping. It totally rocked. As I said, Sour Grapes.

    Wish I could go back and have a Do-Over. Wouldn't change a thing.

  • Dick Hodgin AND Harry Simmons were gentlemen and VERY sweet. I spent a lot of time at the Brewery when I wasn't DJ-ing, and I loved it. I loved the Smiths AND the Connells, but the Bad Checks were my favorites. Ah, and the Flat Duo-Jets!Sour grapes, mamaslilbastard.

  • BLESS YOU, SKIPJAMES25, Perhaps we can start a movement to expose the MYTH known as "Comboland" !!!!!!

  • Mr. Hodgin was an A-hole and the Connells - yup not an origianl idea to be found
