That's a great story.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The singles on the Rhino comp American Power Pop in the DIY series include some things where I think Chilton is backing Chris Stamey.
Probably the Summer Sun 7". That's a great one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What a brilliantly random rant:
“DUTCH FAGGOTS!!! GODDAMN FUCKING DUTCH FAGGOTS!!!! A WHOLE FUCKING COUNTRY FILLED WITH NOTHING BUT FUCKING TURD BURGLING FAGGOTS!!!! I FUCK YOUR ASS IN HEAVEN AND HELL!!!! FUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOU!!”
I also liked the "please don't hit me I have a brain tumor" gambit.

I'll be doing a little tribute to Chilton starting right at 8am at [link]
Some songs, some stories (mostly ones linked to from here).

Ann, that's a ferret.
I've been dark for a few days getting a new work computer. But I'd also like to give a nod to Chilton's work with the Box Tops. Any 16-year-old who can belt "The Letter" has something special. (Though my favorite Box Tops song is "Soul Deep."

I think it's commonly known as "speed".

Something I will definitely miss about Austin: I left work yesterday, walked three blocks to a nearby pub, and caught the Meat Puppets (currently the Kirkwood bros + Shandon "Son Of Doug" Sahm) play a white-hot set for the low price of nothing at all. Unfortunately, there were work guys at my house or I would have stuck around for Grant Hart afterwards.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
