Fanatic! I hope you had a great week. I’ve been in relative confinement, working on the final draft of a book. I think there’s at least three to four days left to go.

Fanatic. As you might be already aware, Wayne Kramer from the MC5 has passed away. The MC5 were an inspiration to countless bands and people since they came roaring to life in the 1960s. All three of their albums are great, High Time is my personal favorite. The MC5 was a shared favorite amongst the ranks of Black Flag. A good read with a lot of in…
