I had never checked out 13thstate before, but in their list of stuff they are selling they have a live CD by the PIST that was recorded on my radio show in 1995. Funny!

Like everything else in rhode island you will find a way to be connected to someone or something. I just thought that they were a cool local record company. One of those RI niche companies that do not get a lot of pub, but do a lot for local artists.

Midway Pictures is now officially in production on our next movie, a documentary about providences finest and longest running punk band, Neutral Nation. Huzzah!

A little birdie told me there was a film screening coming up at the Fabre Line Club?

Doh. I updated my post. It's Neutral Nation. They have been together for over 25 years and really defined providence punk in the late 80's. The movie will focus on their history, the evolution of punk rock in providence, and what keeps 4 guys in a band for 25 years without making any money.

Mr. Lunchtime, I owe you thanks. This post finally pushed me over the edge to create the Gene Severens article on Wikipedia. My late bud, of Boneyard, My Way, the Aggressions. The page isn't even good enough to be a stub, but it'll get there.

Gene's classic farewell, quoting Stiff Little Fingers --

'Hanx!

Awesome! There will certainly be plenty of Boneyard in the movie. If there was ever a "sister band" to Neutral Nation, it was Boneyard. If you have any old NN flyers, photos or whatever get in touch!

So while watching True Blood last night I noticed that the exteriors for the vampire hotel is a static shot of the Courtyard hotel downtown with Gtech & The Westin clearly visable as well as a sign for 95n/95s and Rt6. I had thought it looked a lot like the courtyard before but I had never paused it to get a good look at it.
