I’m a writer/editor based in Brooklyn, NY, who needs your input for her coming-of-age novel-in-the-works about the late, great Clash frontman Joe Strummer. Although my labor of love is fictional, I would like to incorporate what I’ve dubbed “fan testimonials” — that is, brief-ish, first-person narratives that encapsulate what Joe Strummer meant to you — in what would resemble a cross between liner notes and the photo sections of rock biographies. This might mean a recollection of a show many moons ago or a recounting of running into The Man on the street. Why, you ask? Because this is a novel about fandom and music as oxygen. Because I want to blur the lines between fiction and reality. Because I think it will look cool. Submit to Heather McCormack at heather.mccormack@gmail.com.

Thanks for the great review!  Are you a musician?  What’s your favorite CD of 2007?

re: http://www.ink19.com/issues/november2007/musicReviews/musicL/lemonheads.html

It’s going back about two weeks, but I wanted to point out to Tim Wardyn that The Lemonheads’ cover of “Mrs. Robinson” actually appeared on the second pressing of It’s a Shame About Ray, not Come on Feel. It might seem a bit pedantic, but getting easily proof-checked facts wrong invariably makes the reader question the reviewer’s grasp of his subject.

Your letter about God and his self esteem is right on!  See the problem is you see what everyone sees.  They are just too afraid to say so.  That’s why religion is wrong.  There is no hell.  There is no heaven.  There is a God though.  It’s more of a light than It is a human though.  People want It to be human so they can relate.  Hence we have Jesus Christ.  Not true!  That’s written in the stars.  No, I’m not an astrological freak, God is not who or what we think.  Picture It as an energy, or life force.  More of a Spirit.  Less of a person or especially not a male.  Read about Revelations and you’ll find that women will save us all.  True!  Check out for yourself.  Norma Holt wrote about it.  Very smart woman.  If your looking for the truth, stop reading the new testament and begin reading Isiah.  Great place to start!  I hope we all wake up soon.  God has allowed this to go on long enough.  It’s time to end it all soon
