Resident Punk is out on Tuesday, and that is when we'll start to announce our pretty fabulous musical guests for Nov. I'd strongly advise grabbing a ticket before then. Don't say I didn't warn you. Ticket links in comments.

We are 99% there with the lineup now. Have added some more legends this week (one that has even played CBGB). May add one more guest singer if a certain someone can make it work. Will start announcing guests soon, but nearly half the tickets are gone already.

I’ll be in London (and possibly Manchester) this November for some Resident Punk promo, including this very exciting night at one of my favorite spots, the Lexington. If you’re free on November 15, grab tickets early. Some very exciting guests are in the works, and you’ll be sorry if you missed out.

It's been my privilege to collaborate with my old pal Legs McNeil on his forthcoming memoir, RESIDENT PUNK: How I Smoked, Drank, and Stumbled My Way Through the '70s Punk Scene (and Beyond). It's everything you hope it'll be and so much more. Much more soon, but preorder now from the usual suspects

If I get an email from a band/brand I subscribe to, I will now unsubscribe if they still have a presence on X. I will also let them know if the unsubscribe asks for a reason. I will, obviously, also not support them in any other way. It may not make a difference, but doing nothing isn't a solution.
