I picked up the the ish of THE BIG TAKEOVER with the Jaz interview. 
Well worth checking out. For what it's worth, I've know Jack Rabid for 
about a decade (I'm such a fucking shameless, fatuous namedropper, I'm 
sorry) and he really is an exceptionally nice, knowledgeable guy. He 
was there at the now-infamous CMJ gig in NYC this past October. In my 
opinion, he has way too much time for Bad Religion and loads and loads 
of early 90's Shoegazer bands (it's time to move on, Jack!), but he's 
got a heart of gold and does it all for the love of the music,...which 
is precisely as it should be.

Melissa Auf Der Maur? She can kiss my grits. Fuck her and the horse she 
rode in on. And the Smashing Pumpkins. And Hole. Fuck'em all.

Alex in NYC...quite evidently on his fifth beer of the evening.
