Hi all,
Byron Coley told me today about a great new blog by Miriam Linna, who
was in the first incarnation of the Cramps and went on to a bunch of
other bands (including the Zantees, whom I saw in high school!).
Start here, with her first entry last May about moving to from Ohio
to NY in 1976 to become drummer for the Cramps, without ever having
played drums before!
She tells great stories and has scanned a bunch of great photos and
artifacts. She was the head of the Flamin Groovies fan club, was
friends with Ohio folks like Rocket from the Tombs (whose members
went on to Pere Ubu), Electric Eels, Dead Boys, etc., lived with
Lydia Lunch & Bradley Field of Teenage Jesus & the Jerks (she had
known Bradley in Ohio), and wrote about music. So check it out!
Sharon
