Thanks, Mike.

Umm...this book on Jewish punk was something I would've expected YOU to write! While I am certainly enjoying it with all its Yiddishisms, I am starting to see holes that I know you could probably fill. A good start, I guess.

Although, part of it reflects something that I have noticed (and read comments about on the Girl Group list) is the love/hate relationship these men seem to have with their heritage. Running away from their Jewish mothers into the arms of their "Shiksa Goddess?" (I've seen this in my own personal experiences with Jewish men into indie/punky stuff)

Oh yeah -- why doesn't Phranc seem to be in there!

Congrats on everything, Dina (and condolences on your dad)! Hard to
believe this list has been active for almost a decade now.

Re the Heebie-Jeebies at CBGBs: decent book, especially if (like me)
you're interested in the dividing line between secular and sacred,
between a raucous Simchat Torah service and a punk show. I seem to
remember having my criticisms, but none of them come to mind at the
moment.

Quoting Daniel Selzer <danselzer AT yahoo.com>:

congratulations on getting married!

just have a bit of an update of sorts re: PragVEC.
I've been emailing a bit with Nick Cash since he was
also the drummer for the Lines (and Fad Gadget and...)
and I asked him. All he said was things seem to be
going ahead, that there were some issues that needed
resolving but that it's been sorted out, so that
sounds positive, I guess!
