re: no. 11 - I had though maybe that they recorded (at least) eleven tapes to distribute as demos. A home tape duplication setup was probably way out of reach for a penniless band in 1965. Easier to just sit down in front of the mike for an afternoon and bang out a pile of tapes?

Jonathan Richman used to cover "At My Front Door" all the time in the late 1970s and early 1980s (and the Modern Lovers covered Foggy Notion years before).

It's like these guys all shared one record collection!

Maybe this is only of regional interest, but I am in Rhode Island and I covet the West Yarmouth poster. The idea of the EPI playing July 4th on Cape Cod (a summer resort) blows my mind. The Kennedy family compound was/is just a few miles away.

I don't own any VU memorabilia. But I just bought the tugboat license.

Have you guys seen this?
