Razorcake #80

The new issue features an excellent interview with Mind Spiders with cover art by Kiyoshi Nakazawa. Not only is Mind Spiders one of my favorite bands, they’ve written a song for the Forest of Fortune book trailer. Super excited to share this with you when it comes out next month. My column for this issue is a tribute to Dave Brokie aka Oderus Urungus lead vocalist for GWAR. I didn’t know Dave but having spent my adolescence and undergrad years in Virginia, he was an example of creative nonconformity at a time when I really needed it. Rest in Power Oderus. 

Dave Brockie Tribute at Stories Books & Cafe

This week I had the pleasure of honoring a great Virginian: Dave Brockie, the outspoken frontman for GWAR who passed away late last month. Jeff Burk and Cameron Pierce organized a tribute at Stories Books & Café and on a cold and rainy night John Skipp, Mark Levinthal, Justin Maurer and myself read for a small gathering of friends and fans. RIP Oderus Ungurus. You will be missed.
