Hey guys. This brought back some memories. I met Nick Zedd in 1992 at a screening of "War is Menstrual Envy". It was shown in the backyard of an old house that served as an art venue for the underground scene. I happened to have some paintings showing at the time and the occasion attracted a much larger crowd than we used to get for an opening. I was also publishing an underground art zine so I tried to get some quotes from Zedd which didn't go so well. At some point in the evening Zedd got upset with the proprietor and a ruckus ensued. I recall him getting up on a table and making quite a scene. I think he was expecting a little bit of money. I was sad to learn of his death. He was a genuine anarchist artist which is what I wanted to be.

Matt Farley must have been making Boston Johnny when he wrote this song at the end. "Allatime"
