THANK YOU. I searched Google to no avail to see who played guitar on that, I should have known it was Steve, but I wasn't entirely sure.

The Husker Du Beef
What the hell is Grant and Bob's problem with each other anyway? Christ, it's been decades now fellas, get off your high horses and make some fuckin money already. Unless Greg doesn't have that awesome 'stache anymore, in which case wait until he grows it back, THEN go back out on tour.
I think you may be right, I seem to recall having read something along those lines in an issue of Mojo or Uncut a few whiffins past.
Also, I'm not entirely sure he actually killed Nancy, but at any rate, no, not deserving of iconic status. Junkies are not cool, kids, let one live with you for a while and that will disabuse you of that notion right quick.
Oh, I like the My Way cover ok, but not because of Sid. Whoever played guitar on that thing is fucking marvelous, he actually made Sid halfway interesting for a minute or two.
Yeah, Charlie Feathers is the shit, QT big-upping him on the Kill Bill soundtracks was pretty cool.
Yeah, I didn't want to rain on anybody's parade or anything, but SLC Punk fucking sucked.
The only good thing about G.G. Allin is the Scharpling & Wurster bit about him with Philly Boy Roy.
Also, get yourself some X. Los Angeles & Wild Gift are usually issued together, if you're one of those schmoes who still buys albums (and I would argue that you fucking should be when it comes to giving bands like X some moolah). X and the Cramps have more than a few things in common, chiefly that they are both…
God dammit I wish I would have seen a Cramps show. I'm still kicking myself over the X show I missed a few years back.
I agree with the sentiment about Googling and not being a douche who is all like "Who?", but let's not tar and feather Belle & Sebastian or Fleet Foxes. I am a dude who loves Tigermilk as much as he loves any given Meteors album. I contain multitudes, but they all hate Celine Dion.
Am I alone in not being that into Stiff Little Fingers? I just never dug Suspect Device as much as most people.
What about G.G.? He fucking sucked.
Well I could just be a really creative necrophiliac, but no, it was a Re-Animator reference.
The Cramps were a Herschell Gordon Lewis movie and the Misfits were William Castle.
Change it to "Lux's head then proceeded to go down on Medusa with abandon" and it's perfect.
Miller: Alright man, you will be my arch-cardinal. We will sing City Lights at mass and all baptisms will be set to their cover of Johnny Kidd & The Pirates "Shakin All Over".
WYMM: Oh yeah, I'd give props to those dudes too, I had a friend who used to have a theory that punk started with the Sonics, but I never really bought that, as I'm sure there were bands before the Sonics who were just as raw and crazy, they just didn't necessarily end up recording anything. I still maintain that…
Seriously
Everyone try and find the Napa Mental Hospital concert, it may be on YouTube and it's one of the damnedest things you'll ever see: an awesome punk band playing a show in a mental hospital. Some people think it's exploitative but they're missing the point (or maybe they aren't and I'm just an unfeeling…
