Sometimes it's right to say goodnight.

About Me

I am a great fan of 80s Alternative music, Post-Punk, and New Wave, and use my blog -- www.classic-alternative.com to pass along info on all the bands.
At one time, I guess I could have been considered a bit of a music snob, but I have mellowed quite a bit. Among my favorite bands: Squeeze, The English Beat, Let's Active, Romeo Void, New Order, Madness, The Smiths, R.E.M., The Pretenders, The Replacements, The Clash, and any project Bob Mould is/has been involved with. I am also a former Duranie and love music that some might consider on the cheesier side, like that of Haircut 100, Adam Ant, Nik Kershaw...
I have two kids, and am exposing them to the finer things in life. :) My boy (7) loves The Clash, Paul Westerberg, and White Stripes. The other day, we were listening to some net radio and Revenge from Ministry's first (super-cheesy) album was playing. My son was trying to shut it off so that he could turn on Spongebob, and my three-year-old daughter was *not* pleased, and ready to try to take him down over it. Way to make a mother proud...
Lastly, anyone who is a fan of the Video Concert Hall TV show from the late '70s-early '80s should click here .
