    you know, this book was produced in a dramatized reading format. it's pretty decent. browse around interesting record shops or torrent sites and maybe you'll find it. or book me a time slot with one of your local scenewhores the next time we're at a con together and i might just burn you a copy.
    "I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me. I don't feel cool when I go there. I'm tired of seeing John Mayer's face pop up. I feel like I'm being hustled when I visit there, and I don't think their product is that great. DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want."

      I am under the impression that he wrote a few, have you read any others? If so, are they worth reading?

        Everything he wrote is worth reading. "Fear & Loathing on the Campaign Trail" is good and so is "Hell's Angels." There are also books that are collections of his shorter works.
        As for Vegas, go downtown. More history there and still has a sleazy yet family friendly feel to it. The giant light show is kinda cool too. You'll get tired of looking up all the time though.
        I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me. - HST

          Well I made it back, and from the little things I remember of the trip, I had a good time. The clubs are awesome, but the women there are stuck up as all hell. You might as well have no dick if you dont have any money.

          Regardless, I saw a 7' man wearing a defcon sweatshirt, 3 times over a course of 3 days while I was there

              Then you went to the wrong places - why are you going to the chalk player clubs anyway?
