ABOUT KRISTIN CASEY AND CASEY DANCER  The follow-up to Kristin Casey's widely acclaimed memoir Rock Monster: My Life with Joe Walsh Casey Dancer is the true story of a thirty-nine-year-old part-time stripper, full-time real estate agent, and struggling writer navigating the chaos of love and ambition. Fresh from a tumultuous breakup and newly sober, Kristin finds herself struggling to re-enter the dating scene. When she falls for Lalo, a charming but troubled ex-coke dealer, their steamy affair leads to deep emotional conflict, testing her boundaries and stirring memories of past relationships. Through the highs of passion, the lows of financial strain, and the harsh realities of erotic labor, Kristin fights to reclaim her sense of self. Bold, raw, and unapologetically honest, Casey Dancer is a story of resilience, vulnerability, and self-discovery.   "In Casey Dancer, Kristin Casey invites readers into an unfiltered exploration of her journey through the complexities of sex, dating, and intimacy, transcending the superficial allure of romantic entanglements to uncover the raw truths that lie beneath. This candid memoir serves as a fearless examination of the often-unspoken realities of modern relationships, revealing not only the euphoric highs of passionate encounters but also the deep vulnerabilities that arise when one dares to be truly seen by another. With an honesty that is both refreshing and disarming, Kristin confronts her own choices and experiences with genuine curiosity, challenging societal norms and expectations along the way. Throughout the memoir, she thoughtfully references her first book, Rock Monster, which chronicled her whirlwind relationship with rock legend Joe Walsh. These poignant callbacks serve as effective reminders of where she's been and how those experiences have shaped her understanding of love and self. Through her journeys, both physical and emotional, Kristin pushes boundaries in ways that are not only refreshing but also deeply relatable. She invites readers to join her on a path of self-acceptance, exploring the intersections of sexuality, identity, and the relentless passage of time. Casey Dancer dares to ask the difficult questions, embracing the messy, beautiful, and sometimes painful realities of being human. It is a celebration of resilience, a testament to the strength found in vulnerability, and an invitation for readers to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery."    -Chris Epting, memoirist and author of forty-five books including Where One Hears the Rain  ABOUT KRISTEN CASEY  Kristin Casey is a writer and recovered alcoholic and addict.

Nirvana, the White Stripes, Hole, the Hives—all sprang from an underground music scene where similarly raw bands, enjoying various degrees of success and luck, played for throngs of fans in venues ranging from dive bars to massive festivals, but were mostly ignored by a music industry focused on mega-bands and shiny pop stars. “We Never Learn: The Gunk Punk Undergut, 1988–2001” tracks the inspiration and beautiful destruction of this largely undocumented movement. What they took, they fought for, every night. They reveled in '50s rock 'n' roll, '60s garage rock, and '70s punk while creating their own wave of gut-busting riffs and rhythm.The majority of bands that populate this book—the Gories, the Supersuckers, the Dwarves, the Mummies, Rocket from the Crypt, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and the Muffs among them—gained little long-term reward from their nonstop touring and brain-slapping records. What they did have was free liquor, cheap drugs, chaotic romances, and a crazy good time, all the while building a dedicated fan base that extends across the world. Truly, this is the last great wave of down-and-dirty rock 'n' roll.In this expanded edition, Eric Davidson reveals more about the punk undergut with a new preface, postscript, and even more photos. The book also includes free twenty-song download.Purchase a copy of “We Never Learn - The Gunk Punk Undergut, 1988-2001, Expanded Edition”: https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781493059867/We-Never-Learn-The-Gunk-Punk-Undergut-1988-2001-ExpandedEdition Signed copies for sale at: https://store.wexarts.org/weneverlearn Visit the New Bomb Turks website: https://newbombturks.comFollow the New Bomb Turks:Facebook: www.facebook.com/newbombturksTwitter: https://twitter.com/newbombturksInstagram: www.instagram.com/newbombturks/?hl=enRead Eric Davidson's writings at the “Please Kill Me” website: https://pleasekillme.com/author/eric-davidsonListen to a playlist of the music discussed in this episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0iHKKn9m8e44QZuqvFsiHR?si=b3ddbd54635c4c13Listen to The Gibson Brothers debut album from 1988 “Big Pine Boogie”: https://youtu.be/U31Gt4tWcZcThe Booked On Rock Website: www.bookedonrock.comFollow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/bookedonrockpodcastTWITTER: https://twitter.com/bookedonrockINSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/bookedonrockpodcast/?hl=enSupport Your Local Bookstore!

Au milieu des années soixante-dix, le jeune débraillé Richard Hell signe un manifeste explosif, un hymne pour tous les jeunes artistes loubards de New York, Blank Generation. Hell n'avait pas baptisé la « génération du vide » par pessimisme : au contraire, ce vide était un terrain vierge où tout était à faire. Un espace libre où des gens comme Patti Smith, Blondie, Television, les Ramones ou Johnny Thunders pouvaient exercer leur créativité. Sur les cendres du Velvet Underground et des idéaux hippies, c'est une nouvelle contre-culture qui s'épanouit. Le CBGB's et le Max's Kansas City deviennent les bastions historiques de la musique underground. Lester Bangs inaugure le terme « Punk » dans un article fondateur, et Legs McNeil immortalise le mouvement dans un fanzine culte à l'image de son sujet : violent, poétique, comique, anticonformiste. Les anglais suivent ça de loin et prennent des notes. A l'origine de cette émulation créative, on retrouvait les inénarrables New York Dolls et leur guitariste intrépide, Johnny Thunders. Son parcours chaotique et tragique fut la parfaite illustration du punk : une épopée impitoyable et sonique où il ne fait pas bon vieillir. Quelques références… Livres : Le bouquin principal sur lequel je me repose pour ce podcast est Please Kill Me de Legs McNeil & Gillian McCain. Un incroyable recueil de témoignages autour de la scène newyorkaise des années 70, tous plus fous les uns que les autres. Johnny Thunders... In Cold Blood de Nina Antonia The Dark Stuff de Nick Kent Apathy For The Devil de Nick Kent Richard Hell : La mort, c'est ne jamais devoir dire qu'on est incomplet de Lester Bangs (article présent dans le livre Psychotic Reaction) Disques : Beaucoup d'albums illustrent la folie créative du mouvement punk NY des années 70.

From November 2020 and re-cut from a deleted Rock Under Fire episode. In the one and only time he addresses it in detail, Mike talks to Patrick Ivanitski about his book AUTUMN AND EVERYTHING AFTER: The Murder of John Lennon, Evolution of Bruce Springsteen & the Birth of the Reagan Era. The politics in the book that ruffled some feathers is discussed along with a focus on Lennon and Springsteen...two generations of artists both vilified by the conservative right...and the long-term consequences of the 1980 election and the seeds that inevitably grew into the current Trumpian war on democracy.  AUTUMN is a story about rock and roll, murder, politics, war, and the cultural divide in America. Mike Derrico has hosted the Rock Under Fire podcast with Patrick Ivanitski since 2016, has written two books (THE LOCKER NOTES, AUTUMN & EVERYTHING AFTER: The Murder of John Lennon, Evolution of Bruce Springsteen & the Birth of the Reagan Era) and has contributed to publications such as Please Kill Me and NJArts.net.

In this episode, we discuss John and Brian's trip to Barcelona and the violent incident at Paul's 21st Birthday.  We use this as a springboard for broader topics, including how John tends to be unfairly singled out as the only Beatle with a problematic history, the failure to look critically at Brian Epstein's behavior as it pertains to the band, how homophobia curtails discussion of the fallout from the Barcelona trip, and the absence of McCartney's perspective in the reporting of this incident. Phoebe and Thalia explore these issues, followed by a panel discussion with newest AKOM host, Iris.

I continue my conversation with author Ben Merlis about the genre “1.5” and I might be a believer! You can read his piece (co-authored by Daniel Weizmann!!!) called “The Zone In Between” about the bridge between Punk and Hardcore at Please Kill Me.

Jen B. Larson plays in the band beastii and contributes music writing to Victim of Time, 50Thirdand3rd, Please Kill Me, and more. She also draws comics and authors fiction for Pulp Oddyssey, Earth's first newspaper from outer space. During the day, she teaches special education at an arts high school in Chicago, and at night and on the weekends, spends whatever free time she has researching for and drafting her first book. You can find links to most of her work at http://www.disappearingmedia.com The First Time is CHIRP Radio’s Live Lit and Music series. It pairs a reader’s personal story about a specific "first time" -- a different "first" for each show -- with a song performance. This unique structure allows the story to resonate with audience members as they experience the accompanying song covered by The First Time Four. The band takes special care to perform unexpected song arrangements, so it is hard to tell which the audience enjoys more: the story or the song. The First Time is produced and directed by Julie Mueller with Assistant Producers Bobby Evers, Hadas Werman and Host Jenn Sodini. Podcast recorded and produced by Jenn Rourke.

Sully discovers Jeffrey Lewis' song Complete History Of Punk Rock  sending him down the rabbit hole of listening to all of Jeffrey's music from the album The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane to his new release Bad Wiring.  Enthralled by Jeffrey's musical and lyrical sensibilities, as well as his underground comic book FUFF, Sully reaches out to talk about the origins of the punk ethos from 1960's folk revival and psychedelic / freak-folk groups  through the 1970's scene on both sides of the Atlantic and his work as an artist.  The two songwriters talk about creative process, touring, and what it means to be an independent artist these days.  Jeffrey references the Anti Folk bands Prewar Yardsale, The Moldy Peaches, indie rock band Cornershop, and his musical heroes Daniel Johnston and David Berman from the Silver Jews.  As always Sully packs this episode with mostly full length songs, "because songs were made to be listened to from beginning to end and not in little snippets".  Sully references the documentary Dylan: Roads Rapidly Changing, and the book Please Kill Me by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain in this two part episode as he does in past and future ones.  It is the definitive book in Sully' s opinion, "an essential read for all music enthusiasts".  List of songs in these two episodes:something good, kill the ghoul, anthem, I know what I want, don't play cards with satan,  what went wrong,  downloading porn with davo, sleep on the left side,  avenue a shanghai hollywood, no lsd tonight, I saw a hippie girl on 8th avenue, came here looking, sad screaming old man, mosquito mass-murderist, whistle past the graveyard, cult boyfriend, babe I'm gonna leave you, I shit my pants, new amphetamine shriek, bodies, punk is dead, just like Dresden '45

Look, you've already seen the run time, so you know it's a lengthy episode. But trust me, it's all worth it. The people I speak to - in this specific chronological order - are: The Regulars aka Francisco, Roger, and James On any given night there's a good chance one of these folks will be at the gig I'm attending, and on this night all three of them happened to be there. I've spoken to James before on episode 44, and Roger (with James) on episode 68. You can see some of James' photography here: -- https://www.instagram.com/66james99 -- Dancehall -- https://www.instagram.com/dancehallband -- Tim, Craig, and Dave put on a most impressive show, and they happen to make for equally entertaining podcast guests. Don't worry if you don't fully understand all that is going on during this chat, just embrace the chaos. Also the beeping was coming from someone's backpack. They work in a kitchen and use the alarm regularly during their shift. Fun fact there. Kramer -- https://www.instagram.com/kramerdoingbits -- & -- https://www.instagram.com/saxon_zine -- I last spoke to Kramer on episode 44 (same as James) when he was putting on a show at Old Blue Last. I fully respect his hustle and enjoy hearing the process behind what he achieves. If you ever see a show with the name Saxon Zine attached, you should trust that it'll be worth your time. Stephanie from Yassassin -- https://www.instagram.com/yassassin_band -- Yassassin are a 5-piece band from London. I first saw them at the Sonic Tonic All-Dayer at The Brixton Windmill (on episode 16 of this podcast) but this was the first time I've spoken to the band for the podcast. The full band is Anna on vocals, Joanna on lead guitar, Moa on rhythm guitar, Nathalia on bass, and Stephanie - my guest - on drums. They are a blast on stage, and she was great to talk to. Thank you to everyone for taking part on this episode, and for an awesome show. Moment of silence for the passing of The Lock Tavern. I hope I get to go there once more before it closes it's doors for good, but if not this night was a great send off for me. Thanks for listening.

Pierce just finished reading Please Kill Me, an oral history of the meteoric rise and fall of punk rock in the 1970s in New York and London. This week, he and Sean are talking about oral histories. Why are they so effective as a storytelling device? And why don't we see more of them?MUSIC"Midway" - Bad Bad HatsADDITIONAL MATERIALMeet Me in the Bathroom Is the First Great History of New York’s 21st Century Rock Scene (SPIN)Blue Chips:An oral history of Shaq, Penny, and the Orlando Magic’s lost NBA dynasty (Grantland)The Greatest Paper That Ever Died (Grantland)

This one was done in a rush (aren't they all). This is both a humble ode to the bands of the 2000s that made me want to play guitar, and a showcase of just how bad I am at playing the guitar. Shout out also to the books Meet Me In The Bathroom by Lizzy Goodman and Please Kill Me by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain. Those two books are well worth a read. This episode, maybe less so.

Marko DeSantis—He's probably best known as the lead guitarists for Sugarcult, but has also played with several other California bands including Bad Astronaut, Nerf Herder and The Ataris. Books discussed on this episode include Tools of Titans by Tim Ferris, Forever by Judy Blume, Please Kill Me by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain, and many others.

2017 has been a unmitigated trash fire, and it’s our last episode of the season (and year!) so we’re sharing the (few) things that brought us joy this year. We talk to Krutika Malikarjuna about the year’s best new comedy, The Good Place. Then, we talk to Sara Yasin about the best so-bad-they’re-good headlines she’s collected in her newsletter, Please Kill Me. And then Ahmed calls up his dad to talk about why he thinks Victoria & Abdul was a must-watch. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The big boys discuss sweating disorders, Please Kill Me, then are briefly joined by Wonderful "Little Brutus" Michelle for a bit until she spills wine all over her tits. She returns after a while but refuses to talk into a mic, which is kind of annoying, but Matt was being really funny so I just left it. Oh yeah he also talks about his job making sushi at a strip club in Reno. Gross.

Order Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk by clicking the book cover above! (MAY 2010) Joey Ramone wasn’t really Joey Ramone. Most people know that the “Ramones” name was for the stage, although few sought out and became their stage persona more completely than the former Jeffry Hyman, a spindly, troubled boy from Queens. If you’re a Ramones fan—or just fascinated with stories of familial disfunction—you’re going to find the new book, I Slept With Joey Ramone: A Family Memoir, an irresistible attraction. LEGS McNEIL AUDIO EXCERPT: "All along, Mickey was writing songs with Joey and never credited. Years and years of frustration came to light when Bud Light used 'Blitzkrieg Bop' in a commercial. I don't think he wanted a lot of money; he wanted recognition. He was there in the studio (when the song was originally recorded), harmonizing with Joey because their voices were almost identical. It was kinda like The Beach Boys, with Carl and Brian Wilson harmonizing with each other." The story was written by Joey’s younger brother, Mitchell Hyman, a.k.a. Mickey Leigh, with help from Legs McNeil, a long-time friend of both brothers and the author of the classic music history, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored History of Punk. Legs, today making his second appearance on Mr. Media, got to know Joey and Mickey in the late ‘70s when he and John Holmstrom co-founded the legendary Punk magazine. I got to know Legs through his later contributions to Spin magazine. His writing always comes with a twist; he’s never dull.

Today's Guest:Legs McNeil, author, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, I Slept with Joey Ramone (MAY 2008) When Spin magazine started, its staff included two fascinating characters. First was Bob Guccione, Jr., the magazine’s founder and namesake son of the publisher of Penthouse. And then there was Spin’s senior editor, Legs McNeil. Legs McNeil!?! What the hell kind of stupid name was that for a journalist? I mean, I grew up with kids named "Plinky," "Jiggs," and "Doine," but "Legs"? Well, let me tell you, that guy Legs McNeil could write. Some months, the only copy worth reading in Spin was under his byline. It wasn’t until years later that I learned that in the early 1970s, McNeil was a co-founder, with John Holmstrom and Ged Dunn, of Punk Magazine, which gave name to an entire musical generation. McNeil has since written two remarkable non-fiction books, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, and The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Porn Film Industry He’s also involved in a new documentary series unspooling across VH1, Spike, and the Sundance Channel in May called "SEX: The Revolution."

Please Kill Me is the first oral history of the most nihilist of all pop movements. Iggy Pop, Danny Fields, Dee Dee and Joey Ramone, Malcom McLaren, Jim Carroll, and scores of other famous and infamous punk figures lend their voices to this definitive account of that outrageous, explosive era. From its origins in the twilight years of Andy Warhol’s New York reign to its last gasps as eighties corporate rock, the phenomenon known as punk is scrutinized, eulogized, and idealized by the people who were there and who made it happen.Legs McNeil was the Resident Punk at Punk Magazine, a senior editor at Spin, and currently contributes to Vice. His other works include The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Film Industry as well as Dear Nobody: The True Diary of Mary Rose, which he co-edited with Gillian McCain. He currently lives in Schwenksville, PA.

The Underground is Massive: How Electronic Dance Music Conquered America (Dey Street Books)  Ask any millennial: electronic dance music (EDM) is this decade's rock and roll. Rolling Stone has called EDM the “defining youth culture of the 2010s” but—like hippie culture in the 60s or punk rock in the 70s—it's about more than music. In The Underground Is Massive: How Electronic Dance Music Conquered America, author and music journalist Michaelangelo Matos chronicles the history of EDM and its meteoric rise from drug-fueled warehouse raves to an estimated $6.2 billion business. The first comprehensive history on the EDM movement in the United States, The Underground Is Massive examines the U.S. electronic dance scene from its beginnings in Detroit and Chicago with acts like Frankie Knuckles and the Belleville Three to its current apex, where performers like Daft Punk and Skrillex sell out arenas all over the world. In the face of such a massive history, Matos expertly explains how and why EDM has evolved from an underground scene to dominating mainstream youth culture today. He discusses dance music's rise in tandem with the Internet, exploring the idea that ravers and EDM fanatics were partially responsible for powering the information revolution of the new millennium. He also delves into the scene's relationship with illegal drugs, from cocaine to Ecstasy to nitrous oxide, and links the changes in EDM fans' drugs of choice to the evolution of the music. Based on hundreds of exclusive interviews as well as a score of vintage fanzines, mailing list archives and out-of-print books and magazines, The Underground Is Massive joins the ranks of the classic music histories like Please Kill Me and Can't Stop Won't Stop.  It tells the bizarre yet fascinating story of a drug-fueled, misfit music subculture that turned pop culture on its ear by remixing the relationship between music, sound, drugs and money in ways that fans, and the industry, could not have predicted. Praise for The Underground Is Massive “An EDM bible.”—Chloe Maassen, Insomniac.com “Matos is the perfect person to create a book of this magnitude.”—Mike Walkusky, EDM.com “We're excited about this book. Matos...has long been one of the few U.S. music journalists who consistently write about electronic dance music with intelligence and insight.”—Andy Hermann, LA Weekly Michaelangelo Matos attended his first rave in 1993 and began writing professionally about electronic dance music a few years later. A regular contributor to Rolling Stone, NPR, Red Bull  Music Academy Magazine, Wondering Sound, and Beatport, he is the author of an acclaimed volume on Prince's Sign ‘O' the Times for Continuum's 33 1/3 monograph series. He lives in Brooklyn. Simon Reynolds is the author of seven books about pop culture, including the rave chronicle Energy Flash,  the postpunk history Rip It Up and Start Again and Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to Its Own Past. Born in London but these days living in LA, he's currently writing a book about glam rock. In addition to writing for magazines including The New York Times, The Guardian, Pitchfork and The Wire, Reynolds also maintains a bunch of blogs centered around Blissblog http://blissout.blogspot.com/

I feel a bit bad entering the hotel room. There was a bit of a miscommunication on timing, and Legs McNeil is clearly quite comfortable lying in bed watching Law and Order. It’s an episode he’s already seen multiple times, a fact he lets be known by rattling off the entire plot in a couple of quick sentences, so he’ll be able to give me his undivided attention as Detective Briscoe successfully apprehends some pure. McNeil and frequent collaborator Gillian McCain finished up an talk at the Rough Trade record store earlier in the evening, discussing their latest, Dear Nobody, a posthumously published diary of troubled young teenager, Mary Rose, though the pair had devoted most of the New York City trip to a forthcoming book focused on Charles Manson, which McNeil promises will shed new light on the well trod story — even if he’s admittedly a bit cagey on the specifics. McNeil and McCain’s first — and best-known — collaboration was 1996’s Please Kill Me, an oral history of punk rock’s early years that is widely regarded as the definitive document of the movement’s New York City roots. It’s a story McNeil knows as well as anyone, as the co-founder of Punk Magazine, the iconic fanzine that give the CBGBs movement a name. These days the author no longer calls New York his home, having traded in the skyrocketing rents and disappearing culture for a far more bucolic life in a small Pennsylvanian town, where he lives, writes and catches the occasional rerun of Law and Order.

When we sat down in the East Village tenement apartment Hell has occupied since 1975, the conversation turned turned to writing. His aforementioned memoir pretty well covers the years beginning with his birth up through the end of his music career, and as Hell made pretty clear early on in our conversation, he’s not particularly found of being asked the same question twice. Between last year’s I Dreamed I Was a Very Clean Tramp and all that goes on between the iconic red and white covers of Please Kill Me, there’s seemingly little about Richard Hell’s relatively short music making career that hasn’t been written. Save for an outing with members of Sonic Youth under the banner Dim Stars, the man who played such an instrumental role in defining the aesthetics and voice of New York City punk had largely retired from the music game by the mid-80s. It’s a tough proposition when speaking to an artist who’s been in and out of the public eye since the mid-70s, and it’s no doubt at least part of the reason Hell seemed to balk at my initial interview request. With his latest book having just been released in paperback, however, Hell agreed to sit down and discuss his career as a writer, from his early days in poetry to the novels Go Now and Godlike and his 2013 autobiography.
