A couple of questions

I dunno the answer to the first two (well, if you can't find an actual
packaged copy of Rockin the Blocks, I could hook you up with a burn, but
I heard they had a few hundred left over, so you'd hope they'd be
interested in distributing them as opposed to landfilling them).
As for the third one, I'd go a couple of steps farther. *I* read Mark's
blog, and I heartily encourage other people to do the same. He posts
longer entries about one or two bands at a time, and is thus able to go
into more depth, and is also clearly less burnt-out than I am, so he's
willing to put some time into thinking of intelligent things to say. ;-)
As part of my personal freakout of web development activity that was
spurred on by the Indy article (as in "oh fuck, people might actually
look at my website"), I added a *bunch* of links to local-music-related
blogs & websites here: http://www.trianglerock.com/etc/
Mark's is linked there, along with Karen Mann's excellent multimedia
local-rock blog, Mann's World, as well as a few others (including the
still awe-inspiring NCMusicHistory.com). There are also some links to
non-bloggy (as in, they don't update regularly) but still-crucial stuff,
such as Perfect Sound Forever's pretty-much-mandatory "How NC Got Its
Punk Attitude."
