I wonder if they contacted him just because of his name?  I have to admit Blood, Britton, Cherington is a strong title.

You cynics, I swear!  You'll take any opportunity to mock the press and despoil their valiant efforts for clicks!  (Just as you did right there, I might add). . Is this "alt-punk"?

Most days I'll take any available excuse to post music.

The fact that there are so few at Bowie has to hurt overall development. I guess those not invited to camp will get some instruction but it does seem like a wasted development year.

It's been my experience that young people learn best via teleconferencing. 

I do wonder what type of instruction is taking place at the academy.

IYHO btw I added another comment above before you so rapidly responded - are the Dwarves "alt-punk", which I asked mockingly.  Hopefully, @weams won't ban me for hijacking!

More adjacent hardcore punk.

Not normally something I listen to but them I like, I think it's the lyrical content.

I'd never really listened to the DMs much but I streamed their concert at Fenway during the lockdown in my big screen and it was a hell of a show.  Really enjoyed it.

Ahh - like my boys John Lydon and Sid Vicious in Dallas, 1978
