Well at least one of us, as in Blowfish, made it out to the Neats show
at Church on Tuesday Dec 29th...
Blowie says: A club full of people knew this was too good to miss, even on a freezing Tuesday night. The Neats did not disappoint, they cranked up and sounded perfect. Below is a link to photos and some more details on the night. Also, we are posting our interview with the band back in 1981. It's all about the Neats this week.
And we have created a whole page
(Neats' Show Church ) of commentary and photos for you...CLICK
Also make sure to read our Neats Interview from the Boston Groupie News # 29,
December 1981....CLICK.
More sad news to mention as well...the most wonderful Dan Salzmann...who was
bass player in numerous very cool bands in early Boston scene, has recently passed
away from a heart attack in Paris. Dan was The Maps, Art Yard, The Flies
and Christmas...then he took off to NYC and then to Paris where he became
a filmmaker (here's his site Fabulous Films
for Now People And was in a really awesome band The
Binoculars as well!!! Dan was such a cool guy and I am sure still
was judging by his output on-line. Amazing person, I had such a crush on him back
then because he was smart, funny and so talented and a great guy...RIP Dan !!!!
Now...we head into the new year...let's hope this is a truly happy healthy and
excellent one for everyone!! This Friday, January 8th at Church

The Damaged...
