Erase Errata does everything right.

Any DVD about wimmins' music that doesn't have Courtney Love in it is fine by me.

I'm always amazed at the level of fear women inspire in the boys on this board.

HaydenAsche 11.09.2006 10:21 AM

Ha! Fear? Nice one.

Try the book "Dance of Days: Two Decades of Punk in the Nation's Capital" by Mark Andersen and Mark Jenkins (http://www.akashicbooks.com/danceofdays.htm). Only the last fifth or so of the book is Riot Grrrl related, but the whole book is an excellent read, and it also gives Riot Grrrl some much-needed context.

even better is the aptly titled "Cinderella's Big Score", reads like Our Band Can Be Your Life

i got "backstage" at ahuggy bear gig in dublin at the height of the linus/comet gain/skinned teen revolution. they were the nicest girls in the world. it was the guys in the band who were being the militant dicks. looking down their noses at me cuz i wasnt gay. the girls were really really sweet and nice.... i thought that was funny at the time and in hindsight i think its hilarious.

I wanted to see Huggy Bear so bad, it's a shame they broke up around 7 years before I heard of them.

You should be, mate, they have strong wrists and can punch hard enough to break bone.

I just don't understand why you hate "feminists" so much. Especially considering all the time you hang out on this board...there has to be a reason. The common thought would be probably something like you can't control their sexuality and you have issues with your own sexuality you project your self-loathing onto them. Or maybe you were raised in a feminist commune/household and have reason to generalize about "some stupid bitch with a moustache". Otherwise I can only conclude you're intellectually weak. Not that will concern you, you're a Yank I imagine.

HaydenAsche 11.09.2006 03:52 PM

I don't have issues with my sexuality, twat. I just think feminists are fucking retarded.

Sometimes when I see "riot grrl" written somewhere. I like to read it as if it were pronounced "riot grill". Then I want BBQ.

ni'k 11.11.2006 09:44 PM
