But thats because we might be burnt out with betterman. Its actually an amazing song.

it is a perfect ‘pop’ rock song

but if you told me you liked last exit, tremor christ, nothingman, corduroy, and immortality more what could I say?

Once upon a time I had a more recent reprint. Not at all rare or anything (as far as I know). It's a great book. It's probably buried in a storage unit in Kansas somewhere right now.

But I'd love to have a vintage printing. Super jealous.

this band never sounded tighter

"Whipping" is so great

it actually sounds like latter day PJ except for the performance

THERE ARE EGGS IN MY HEAD

I'm looking forward to receiving it; cost a bomb so it better be good condition

why is that better than being hugged?

wow I hadn't heard the organ-only version of Better Man before, it's great; did PJ ever make the organ sound so good as it does in this song?

My friends bought me one for my birthday (amazing present!) It's a cool book isn't it?

I winced at some of the entries but then remembered that, when I was growing up, my mum and dad had a 1970s copy of some Reader's Digest medical encyclopedia which listed homosexuality as a "disease" with "no known cure"

wow, yeah, queer history is a trip

it's a fascinating book; I had hoped this copy would be in *slightly* better condition, the binding is together but a little fragile and torn in spots, so I won't be reading it all that often, but I've just found a place for it on my shelf

True story - about twenty years ago, I was exploring an abondoned building with some friends and found a copy of this book amongst the garbage strewn about. I didn't take it at the time, but I wish I had.

As I recall, it was a nurse's residence back in the day. It's since been demolished.
