basically, yes. i finally listened to it last night and it rocks way hard.
as good as the live show i caught.

got em all, i think, except the MRR split. i was not aware of anyone from
Supercharger in the SB though. There's also The Fingers, an earlier
project of Shane and Jason White. A couple of their 7 inches have been
post-humously released recently. And the Tight Fits, another White
brothers band, are a bad joke. 
btw, those surf chicks are the Trashwomen, who i guess have broken up
again except for their in other bands together now, including the
Bobbyteens on Super*Teem records and The Spastics, who don't have a record
deal to the best of my knowledge. I know Zab saw 'em with the Infections a
couple of weeks ago.

that i dunno. one 7" is on Repent and the other is on Rip-off. I heard
Rip-off is using Mordam now, so it should be easier to find their stuff. I
don't think Greg does direct orders though, but I guess you could try the
address on a rip-off record.

> any info on Loli and the Chones is appreciated.
They're from Irvine or Whittier or some such orange county area. Loli is
really cool, she stayed in my hotel room in vegas. She's 19 but almost
never got carded! Like I said above, they have a 7" on Repent, which she
gave me as payment but haven't heard yet although i hear it's real lo-fi
and a 7" on Rip-off, which has the great song "make-out party." They
recorded an album for Rip-off a couple of weeks ago and greg says he's
starting the mixing but I don't think it'll be out until 97. who knows?
the only other tidbit i know is chones means "dirty underwear" in spanish.
