I suppose you mean that Asian hair is not the same as other people's
hair. Do you have evidence for this remarkable assertion?
There was this girl where I used to work who told us she had her bush
trimmed in the shape of a heart. The girl was kind of heavy, so we all
speculated on what that would look like. The consensus was that if she
spread her legs, she'd look like Dumbo with her massive clit dangling down
like an elepant's trunk.

Mathew, that was a good one and i laughed a bit - but allow me to
be a killjoy. it is indeed possible to forensically distinguish asian,

Regardless of the answer, both topics are positively postmodern.

I presume that this applies also to pubic hair? And that Asian pubic hair
is less suitable for cutting? How does he do that kind of research?

alt.tasteless yawned. (Especially since those posts were concerned only about
the *trimming* of pubic hair.)
Even the occasional reader of a.t should know that the above description
is tame compared to the usual quality of tastelessness in that group.
Now, if you were talking about a performance artist who was going to walk
on stage, burn off his pubic hair by leaning against a red-hot steel
girder, then pee on himself to unstick his flesh where it burned-and-stuck
to the girder, then wrap lengths of barbed wire around the girder before
ramming it up his rectum...
Sideways.

Rhino's one of the best record label currently in existence. Probably
the only label who can put out a compilation of bands I've never heard
of and I'll buy it at full price anyway because whoever selects their
tunage is brilliant. They put out a comp of songs that mention
teenagers dying (e.g. Leader of the Pack, The Homecoming Queen's Got a

including Kazoo'd on Classics, adn everyone's favorite hum-along,

Reminds me of a bar I used to frequent years ago. Opening to 4:45 pm, it
was an old man's bar, you know, peaceful, dull, pour-the-drinks-and-maybe-
if-we-can-get-the-energy, we'll shoot some pool.
By 4:50pm, the oldsters had left, because at 5:00 the first biker would
stagger through the door, followed by somewhere between 20-200 of his
closest friends. I think the Milwaukee P.D. hired extra cops just for

Ain't it a pity the kids have no grounding in music? They think of the

Sounds like your father suffered from the same condition as the kiddies

REAL music from the thirties & forties, I've got Benny Goodman at Carnegie
hall, Ella, Billie Holiday, Charlie Parker & Dizzy, etc. Now THAT's real

If memory serves correctly, the old fuck died within the last two years. I
danced in the street. What he did for Big Band was roughly the equivalent
of what Pat Boone did for Rock and Roll (ever seen/heard Pat's version of

Now, I was about 22 when Tears for Fears was popular, and therefore
PROBABLY not too old to enjoy new music. Mostly I was listening to
The Television Personalities, Butthole Surfers, early Camper van
Beethoven, the Replacements, the Residents (I think they were doing
their American Artists series at the time, fuckin' brilliant), et

Not liking Tears for Fears has nothing to do with age - it has to do

The really great thing about Pat is that it's obvious he has NO idea
of what he's singing about. Ditto for 50's vocal groups like The
Crew-Cuts. They'd cover all these great cross-over hits, completely
oblivious to the references in the lyrics. On of my favorite Boone
songs is "That's How Much I Love You." Sample lyrics:
"If you were a pussy,
With pretty glossy fur
I'd sit and I would pet you
And listen to you purr."
Not much by today's standards, but it's amazing to me that Patty-Boy
could sing this and not know what it means.
The Crew-Cuts do a song called Chop Chop Boom, which is about whacking
off. The way they've arranged it, the entire band does backing
vocals, with all of them joyously intoning:
"Chop Chop Booo-oom!
Chop Chop Booo-oom!"
Chop Chop!!"
Do these guys KNOW they're having an audio circle jerk?
I really miss the old days. Nowadays if Two Live Crew wants to sing
about sex, they just put the word "fuck" into the lyrics 78 times, and
get taken to court. The Treniers, on the other hand, could write a
song called "Poontang" that got air play because none of the white
station managers knew what it meant.

Ain't this the truth. Part of the fun of figuring out Beatles's lyrics
was finding out the chorus backing of "Girl" was the lads singing "tit"
over and over. Not to mention the references in "Lady Madonna"
The black R&B groups were also pretty successful at getting drug
references onto AM radio as well. "Spoonful" has variously been
interpreted as a spoonful of spooge or a spoonful of heroin.
At any rate, it was 10cc (and that's where that name came from).
I always liked Lowell George's dirty lyrics. I couldn't figure out
what "Skin It Back" meant until George told an interviewer that
he wasn't circumsized.
>I guess I really AM old,

Not unless you can remember when Ted Nugent was with the Amboy Dukes.
Strayhorn (Journey to the Center of Your Mind)
Now, Matt, this is *strange*.
Hendrix opening for the Monkees I understood, 'cause Hendrix was
still pretty unknown at the time and I figured the promoter probably
assumed that the Experience was just another guitar band.
However, in '74, Led Zep had been around for almost 10 years and
Feliciano longer than that. Anyone who didn't know who these folks
were was just plain stupid.
And, JEEZE, Norman OK? Oral Roberts territory? Whoah!

Hmm, I need to point out two different "Spoonful" songs, both
delta blues.
"My Baby Loves Me (about a lovin' spoonful)" by Big Mama Thornton
is a reference to spooge and is where John Sebastian got that name.
"Spoonful" by (?) Johnson - damn, can't think of his first name - was
covered by Cream, among other folks and has such lines as "Trust that
spoon full of lightning." Generally considered to be about heroin.

Not the Who, the Amboy Dukes. Big hit out of Detroit in '67 and '68
with "Journey to the Center of Your Mind" and "Baby Please Don't Go"
among others. Set the stage for MC5 and other Motor City madmen.
I've got a copy of their one-and-only album on Swann Records. Funky

>I guess I ain't that old, after all.

Only if you can remember when radio stations played both black

At the Yale Bowl. This was _not_ when they were part of some '60s revival,

charts. The Assoc. did some shtick about being from Harvard, and were
cutting on the Yalies. They also made remarks about "Cherish" actually
being titled "Cherries" that were considered rather scandalous at the
time.

Cream did a pretty good job with 'Spoonful.'
But, here's a REAL good one. The Spencer Davis version of "I'm a Man."
Steve Windwood wrote it, and was with them at the time. The '45'
was sent out and made it to black radio stations. They liked it
and it was getting a lot of air time. Then, they found out it
was a *white* group and stopped playing it. Seems there was no

That'd be Robert Johnson. He's responsible for a good deal of Clapton's

lot of his style. He also wrote "Sweet home Chicago" which Blues Brothers
fans will recognise. Mind you he was doing this shit in the ?twenties or
thirties!)

Yo, I'll say it: I'm jealous. I've always kicked myself for not
seeing Cream. Missed their Fillmore date by two days in '67. As
a matter of fact I'm sad I didn't get to see Clapton in his
heroin days - his peak, of course - and only first saw him in
his alcoholic days.
He did put on a fun show, staggering drunkenly around the stage and
occasionally pawing at the extremely attractive Yvonne Elliman,
who was wearing a halter top (that should give you an idea of the date
of this show) and a pair of Hawaiian draw-string pants.
The highlight of the show for me was when he finally connected and
demonstrated that Elliman was not wearing panties under those
flimsy cotton pants.

What!? You've never heard of the frigging Amboy Dukes? Well, neither

first album, "Journey to the Center of Your Mind", for a buck about
ten years ago, just for the decorative possibilities. The jacket has an
impressive collection of a couple hundred `smoking devices' artfully
arranged in a semicircle. I was always amused by this, since old Ted
has been virulently anti-drug for years. Not too many people ever bring
up that album in interviews with him, I'll wager.

Ben Cox th...@netcom.com
The first concert I ever went to was a Sepultura concert in Hawaii.
I didn't actually listen to Sepultura, but went because it was a chance
to catch a metal concert and not a lot of metal bands come through
Hawaii. Sepultura was pretty much blown away by their opening band,
which was a local band called Optimum Fury.
The concert was held in this big warehouse sort of place with a stage
set on one side. Someone had hired about fifteen huge samoans to work
security, and they sat on the stage shoving people away. One of the
samoans worked in the crowd with the job of helping up people who
had fallen lest they be trampled.
If you've never been to a small venue metal concert, it has an interesting
setup, basically divisable into three segment. The back group of
people are standing listening to the music. The middle group of people
are moshing and basically slamming around trying to hurt each other.
The front consists of people mashed up against the stage. I was in the
front, having realized that some of the metal groupies were up there
in such a stage of mash and adrenalin that you could give them a feel
and they often wouldn't even notice. Often, people from the middle
would dive onto the people in the front, in the hopes that people
would pick them up and carry them. Another splendid opportunity to
get a quick feel.
tasteless bits
- One of the guys got drunk before the show, and went around spraying
beer on people. This is a BAD THING to do to the mostly psychotic
metal crowd. Halfway through the concert, this guy was on his hands
and knees crying after being moshed the shit out of. The samoan saves
him from being trampled.
- Two guys come up to me and one of them asks me for help in picking
up the second and throwing him onto the people up front. I take hold
of a leg, and me and guy 1 throw guy 2. Guy 2 lands on guy 3's head, and
they both go down. Guy 1 and I make ourselves scarce, fast.
- A guy in the front brought his girlfriend, who was small and shouldn't
really have been in the front with him, as she could have been easily
squashed. The boyfriend spent the entire concert trying to keep people
from slamming into his girlfriend. Girlfriend was in the throes of
ecstacy hoping that a member of Sepultura would sweat on her. She
had smallish, firm tits that fit nicely against my palm.
- At the very end of the concert, some freak got onto the stage. The samoans
started to chase him, and finally the guy takes a flying leap off the
stage. He shouldn't have trusted the metal crowd; they parted before him
like the red sea before Moses, and he smacked the hard floor very
audibly. The samoan came to keep him from being trampled, and what
does this wastoid do upon regaining his feet? Starts yelling 'Heavy metal!
Heavy metal!'

When I lived in Hawaii about ten years ago, we had an occasional metal
concert. I saw Ritchie Blackmore at the UH Amphitheater once. His
band ended up cutting their show short because of violence in the crowd.
The big ticket, though, was the show at Aloha Stadium at the end of
every August called Summer Blowout.
The first time I went, the bands were Blue Oyster Cult, Molly Hatchett,
and Ronnie Montrose's band Gamma. The second time, it was Black Sabbath,
Blue Oyster Cult and Heart. (A hell of a line-up for one show, I must
admit.) This was during Sabbath's Ronnie James Dio period (the 'Heaven
and Hell' tour), and before Nancy Wilson really blimped out -- althogh
she was a trifle porky even then.
These shows attracted a pretty wide variety of people; there were the
metalheads, the North Shore surfer and bohemian crowd of which I and
my friends were a part, the hardcore military from the many bases
aroun' da island, and a veritable host of others. Climbing the stairs
up into the stadium before one of these concerts, I saw a burly Marine
passed out cold. He'd been leaning against one of the waist-high
concrete walls surrounding the lower level outside the stands when he
lost consciousness. The guy's head was on the top of the wall, facing
away from the structure, with a three-foot streak of vomit trickling
from his mouth. The poor bastard never even made it inside. Then while
Heart was playing, my roommate Eric, who'd eaten a shitload of shrooms
before the show and consumed Ghod Knows what other substances as well,
ended up puking copiously on the heavy plastic sheet covering the front
of the stage. He'd been partying pretty hard before our group even left
Hale'iwa, so I wasn't too surpised by this; it was only a matter of time
before his system reached critical mass. Fortunately I was far enough
away not to get splattered.

Ahhh, yes... he did an acoustic show at Jolly Armrest... his opening act was
some guy strapped into a wheelchair, who managed to plunk through his set by
flailing his apparently useless arm against specially-tuned strings. He looked

Yes, that he does. Kinda a counter to John Lee Hooker's big bass voice.
Johnson sounds more like a screechy falsetto (but what the fuck, the blues

After being told by some cunt of a white waitress that she couldn't use the

proceeded to hike up her skirt and piss right there on the floor, all the

Fucking Hell, barb, what the piss were you thinking when you posted this?

Strangely, I feel a wee bit stupid when I actually keep reading these messages,
knowing that, after pages of included text, there is no gem resting at the

tendency of leaving too much text are also strangely devoid of any intellect,
and can make no statement more inspired than,``Why didn't you save this for

you for hours. After I am finished, I am greeted by a fierce burning, and
any pressure directed inwardly on the organ, right behind the glans, is
_quite_ painful(as if there is a large solid wedged in there).
Then after the pain goes away, it itches like hell.
Too bad I can't really brag about this at parties(women seem to be turned
off by this), as I could have even _more_ fun with it.
Go eat your mother's clamydia infested twat you reeses monkey.

I could have but I didn't, you chunk of shit with undigested corn
nibbits lodged it in. I like pissing off imbeciles like you. It must be
rough having 47 chromosomes.

Actually one could have easily asked that hairy dyke mom of yours the same
about her failed abortion.

Obviously you're too stoopid to get it. Here's a tip, have an adult explain it
to you, preferably one that's literate (that excludes any of your family
members).

It must be those penile implants. Does your mommy like them?

That's what you get for fucking another hairy assed man, rumpranger.

Maybe if you showered more often the fungi would go away.
