damn but he ain't coming by me

I can feel your pain. Couldn't go(lack of money) to the Shellac's concert in Poland. I doubt they'll be back ever. Shame.

Anyway. Artist I heartily recommend - Rand Reynolds: the guy plays and sings the great alt country. Really great imho.

Man, there should be a game about punks like GG Allin and Darby. No those nerdy things all the time.

the guys would never let me.

Get another band to play?

Tom Waits is fucking living IAWA oracle.

There was that Tom Waits oracle thread on the Story Games forum, although you don't really need it. Just print out a bunch of lyrics, cut them up line-by-line, and pull 'em out of a hat.

I'm free jazz/improvisation guy right now. In high school I've been more into punk but you know - things change.

In high school I was playing bass in a punk band, and mandolin in a gypsy/bluegrass band. I make my living teaching blues and jazz guitar now. Things change.

The Alabama crew (me, Jared, Will) is punk as fuck, even though we prefer jazz.

I wish to game Mule Variations. That is all.

Which is easier than you think, imho. Waits is a great storyteller and every song has a story inside. So let's see:
- Choose an album and listen to it.
- Write down themes, places, things and other moody crap that comes to your mind while listening.
- Choose one or two songs and get characters from them. I would be very easy.
- Remember the moody crap? Use it to create setting and ties between chracters. Also to set the mood.
- Choose a system to play it. Or go freeform. jeepform or whatever they call it today.

I'd say Steal Away Jordan is punk as fuck. Poison'd is punk as fuck. The Alabama crew (me, Jared, Will) is punk as fuck, even though we prefer jazz. Prefering jazz over punk is punk as fuck and hardcore as hell.

Tom Waits is where it's at. I need input for my newest game, G & D (Grifters and Drifters) which is inspired by Tom Waits and Flannery O'Connor. It, my friends, will be punk as fuck and hardcore to boot.

So what makes a punk as fuck hardcore game?

1. Instead of "a*****e" word we say "that's fucking hardcore!"
2. We act out all our rpg fights for real
3. We have an attitude.

Basically the same things as in punk.

BTW I've just received Stealing Away Jordan and it's punk as fuck hardcore game, too.
