    I have Suicidal Tendencies' old PO Box. So if anyone gets ahold of one of their old records, it says in the notes somewhere to send a card to PO Box 388 in Venice if they want fan updates.

    So here it is, 30 years later and once every week or two, I get mail addressed to Suicidal Tendencies. (I only took it personally the first time).
    Cool story. One of my all time favorite tunes 'Institutionalized' by ST. The line "all I wanted was a Pepsi, just one pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me" cracked me up everytime even though the song was about teen angst.

    Love that list you posted. Brings back memories indeed.... have a beer with Fear, way too many times.

    You know how hippos are made out to be sweet and silly, like big cows, but are actually extremely dangerous and can kill you with stunning brutality? The Pacers are the NBA's hippos....Matt Moore CBS Sports....

      Yep, even the osmond brothers could rock sometimes.

        I didn't know you agreed with my mainstream statement because of this.
        But your quote absolutely said that I said you guys were wrong about Nirvana making Punk mainstream. Which I never did.

        EDIT: Nevermind, I see what you did there. Apologies.

          I've just completed a story about the band and the song Institutionalized.
