Sid's brought a saxophone which he toots on. His hands are on the saxophone, his elbows tucked close to his body, feet and knees together, legs straight as he jumps up and down like a matchstick pinging out of a catapult. (This catches on when he does it at gigs and is later called the Pogo.)
Viv Albertine's memoire is sick funny. Review here. Lovely portraits of Sid Vicious and Ari Up. Albertine's style was copied by many; Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, etc. Makes it easier to accept her versions of the myths about the Pogo, the safety pins and the Dr. Martens ++ Did she and Richard Hell ever get together to discuss punk fashion? I bet The Met tried real hard last summer. Here's the lovely Slits plus some related stuff.

Hassan blir ofte, litt misvisende, kalt en rappoet. Ganske riktig har han erfaringer med rap-musikk, men hans messende og dypt alvorlige opplesningsstil er helt fri for vestlig swing og groove. En annen strålende skandinavisk forfatter, svenske Jonas Hassen Khemiri, har også skrevet bøker på «blattesvensk» (debutromanen Et øye rødt, oversatt til norsk i 2005), og hos ham finner vi de samme språklige kyborgidentiteter. Khemiris rapinspirerte unge menn har ofte labile, flerstemmige uttrykk som virrer mellom rappens overmot og andregenera- sjonsinnvandrerens panikkslagne ønske om å gli inn i den etnisk svenske folkemengden (Jeg ringer mine brødre, på norsk i 2013). Khemiri (og av og til Hassan) skriver med et raffinement som ville få Jacques Derridas ører til å blafre. Vi hvite, autentisitetssøkende lesere får avslørt den innebygde eksotismen i blikkene våre.

The #snark was #snarky. It was an open hand and it was #snarky. There was no end to the #snark when you reached out your hand. I saw it and it was #snarky. All it was, it was #snark. The #snark was #snarking, it's the #snark of the open hand. The open hand was dirty and open and #snarky. Stop the #snark of the open hand now. Don't ever open your hand, don't ever try to connect. All that is just filthy #snark, the filthy #snark of the open hand ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Vintage Gasspedal-foto fra 2003. Audun & jeg læser Stuelands omtale af GK i Klassekampen en tidlig morgen på Bergen stasjon. Billede af Auduns mor. Dette N&D-udklip er vist også fra 2003. Gasspedal fylder 15 år og dette fejres i Fredrikstad næste helg.
