re: Sonic Highways: foo fighters hbo special

Finally watched the DC one, which I was really looking forward to (loved that he gave some screen time to his old bandmates in Scream). I flipped out when Skip showed up on my TV. I started yelling at Mrs. Baloo, "That's the guy who got me into Fugazi!" He was the evangelist of the scene. He got more kids into DC punk than almost anyone on the planet. Yesterday and Today was a place you walked in knowing nothing, and walked out with the Dischord back catalog. Alos, loved that they gave so much screen time to Positive Force, which really is a big deal to the DC scene. It was a political movement.

My wife did ask "Where's HR? Is he dead?" because they kept referring to him and never had him on screen. "

"No, honey. He's alive. He's just an a-hole."
