Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

I was the Publisher and Editor of a 1980's Alternative fanzine called LA ROCK REVIEW! I was known in Hollywood, LA, OC as Kelly Q. We were one of three top music newspapers in Los Angeles along with the LA Weekly and BAM, don't forget Endless Party.Our paper helped bands like Soundgarden, Alice in Chains (We'll never forget Layne, R.I.P.),
.. ....Guns & Roses, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, L.A. Guns, Faster Pussycat, Mother Love Bone (a couple of Green River band members were in MLB, but are now in Pearl Jam, but we'll never forget Andrew Wood, he started out in Malfunkshun, R.I.P.),.. ....LA ROCK REVIEWS tribute to Andrew Wood and Mother Love Bone.Green River (who split up to become Mudhoney (Mark Arm's band) and Mother Love Bone, (which, as I stated above, went on to be Pearl Jam! Let's just say that Green River and Malfunkshun, Andrew Wood's band started it all.), Mudhoney, Nirvana, L7, Sea Hags, Pigmy Love Circus, Antja-Mimes, Motorcycle Boy, The Dickies, 999, JetBoy, Junkyard, Hangmen, (Check out my "music" section for Junkyard, Motorcycle Boy & The Hangmen), The Nymphs, Rock City Angels (Did you know Johnny Depp played in this band for awhile? When he was in 21 Jump Str, that was really cool to see and meet him.) and a whole lot more. (Sorry for leaving everyone else out, we covered 100's of bands, new & already famous.) I was the first Newspaper in LA to interview Soundgarden and Chris Cornell. I've interviewed Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickensen and Peter Murphy, lead singer of Bauhaus, Social Distortion and many more. We also wrote reviews on clubs, like Scream, hi Bruce and Michael, (here is an old Scream flyer which I found on Scream's myspace profile, hello my favorite fellow Leo friend, Dayle!)Riki Rachtman's (former VJ on MTV and my good friend) Cathouse and Bordello clubs,(A full spread of the 20th Anniversary of Cathouse and the very last one is online now on the AWF website!)Coconut Teaszer, Club Lingerie, White Trash (Hi Janice, she did English Acid too),Club with No Name, English Acid,The Whisky, The Roxy and more. I'm sure there are new clubs now, but these were the clubs of the late 80's/early 90's. If you want to know why I have a Raiders picture you'll have to ask my daughter TQ!I was also the founder of the NBGC, "No Bimbos Girls Club" and was interviewed in Rolling Stone, B-52s' were on the cover. Running this newspaper was one of the highlights of my life and am sorry to whoever remembers us that we had to fold (not our fault) in 1991 and I moved to San Francisco. I miss you all very much!! I'm back to blow your mind with AWF, covering the WORLD!!!!! Bands, fans, friends, you can send letters, demos, CD's, press kits to Alternative World Fanzine, c/o Kelly Q, P.O.
