    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

    I'm currently reading A Tree Grows In Brooklyn. It's really depressing, but it's also very good so far.

    I read that umpteen times in my early teens. I'd forgotten about the depressing stuff, just remember that I loved it.

    I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: The Dirty Life and Times of Warren Zevon.

    I have that one but haven't gotten to it yet? Does it do Mr. Zevon justice?

    My latest read is this:

    I've probably mentioned this book somewhere here but oh, what---a---book! I thought I knew a lot about music, the 70's New York scene, punk, alternative, all that good stuff but this book is teaching me so much more! I mean, just that fact that I didn't know Suicide was the first band to describe their music as "punk"... in 1970! And to read these stories about Vega and Rev interacting with all these amazing people, going to shows and meeting people like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Albert Ayler! And learning about different periods of time in New York City with words that evoke the smells, the sounds, the vibe, the REAL of NYC! Oh yeah!

    This one will go on a special place on my book shelf along with all my Rollins books, Michael Azerrad's marvelous Our Band Could Be Your Life, Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain's Please Kill Me, Greil Marcus' Ranters & Crowd Pleasers and a few other essential books on music.

    I'm rambling a bit. Sorry!! (Say, reminds me of a thread... haha!) but really, this book is fantastic!

    Universe, please let me live long enough to see that great city one more time.

    Reading a collection of Edgar Allan Poe stories, it's interesting how much of his Dupin turns up later in Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, lol.

    About halfway through this. Didn't love it at the beginning, it got better. Interesting though.
