It seemed legit to me. Maybe I am a “flyover state rube” but Lizzy Goodman was in NYC during that time and nothing in that book seemed any more outlandish than similar titles, Our Band Could Be Your Life, or the Lollapalooza book from last year.
What parts seemed fabricated to you?
The Mooney Suzuki - People Get Ready
John Frusciante - To Record Only Water…
Sonic Youth - Diamond Seas
Freeman - Freeman
Pavement - Perfect Sound Forever
Danny Brown - “Grown Up”
Masayoshi Takanaka - On Guitar
James Carter - Gold Soundz
Buster Williams - Pinnacle
Charles Tolliver - Right Now...And Then
Grateful Dead - Boston Music Hall, 6/11/76
Euphoria - A Gift From Euphoria
My Record Store Day 2026 Haul…
I picked up more than I planned but Hi-Voltage Records had plenty of nearly everything on my list. Still I am bushed probably take a nap before digging in to these. #Vinyl
Record Store Day 2026.
I got in a bit past 1 AM and there were already 51 people ahead of me. It’s a nice night out though at least. What’s everyone picking up today? #Vinyl

Lilys - The 3 Way (1999)
Cap off this listening session with another power pop record from 1999. #Vinyl

Phantom Planet - Phantom Planet Is Missing (1999)
Just realized that this album dropped the same year that Rushmore premiered. Man, Jason Schwartzman had one heck of year. #Vinyl

Sunset Valley - Boyscout Superhero (1999)
A friends tipped me of to a new PNW label, Cascadia Archives who are reissuing local Alt. Rock albums from the 90s on vinyl. This Portland band was originally signed to Barsuk but this album had never been released on vinyl until now. #Vinyl

Lilys - Better Can't Make Your Life Better (1996)
The Lilys really changed up their sound as the 90s progressed going from an excellent Shoegaze band to a fantastic power pop outfit. This one is closer to The Kinks than MBV. #Vinyl

Al Green - Call Me (1973)
A Soulful Friday morning with the Reverend. #Vinyl

Texas Is The Reason - Do You Know Who You Are (1996)
Recently found an early pressing of this one at a local here in Tacoma. Time to get emo! #Vinyl

Rushmore Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1999)
Wes Anderson has some of the best needle drops in movie history. Surprised he never directed any music videos. #Vinyl

Neil Young - Tonight’s The Night (1975)
I’ve had the exquisite Chris Bellman NYA reissue for quite awhile but I really wanted an original pressing that featured the blotter paper cover. This turned out to have a bit of an edge warp but it doesn’t affect the play back. #Vinyl
