March 1Mar 1 Crazy that they’re all gone, although I guess in a way also not. If Paul Westerburg thinks you’re going too hard you’re probably going too hard (Johnny’s Gonna Die). [edit] 75 is probably a good run for Buster I keep meaning to go back and watch that New York Doll documentary. Edited March 1Mar 1 by Celery Man

Only dude I've seen make it through that is Keith Richards.

First it was a cover, second it was released the same year as The Cure's Hot Hot Hot, and third it reached higher on the charts than The Cure song which was the straw that broke the camel's backing at showing the general public had shit taste in music.
March 2Mar 2 If you never saw the film "New York Doll", fix that. It's more about Author Kane, but there is a lot of band history and David Johansen is prominent in it. The ending is tragic.

The good stuff never gets that high on the charts. It's just ear candy for the masses. Once you recognize that, your favorite tunes not making a chart is much more palatable.
