I recently dialed in to Ralph's BBS in San Francisco. Those of you unfamiliar with the Ralph label, the Residents, Snakefinger, etc. probably should not bother with this, but all Ralph freaks are advised to sell all there non-Ralph records so they can afford to do this regularly. The system is 300 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop, full duplex, and has a 30 minute time limit. It features an on line catalog of Ralph products, including videotapes such as THE MOLE SHOW !!! You can order using your favorite plastic. There are announcements of future Ralph events and releases, reviews of independent label releases, gossip, plus normal BBS functions (twisted in that special Ralph way, of course) . Big Brother certainly is watching out for us in SF. I hope this encourages all of you sickos to get on the Ralph band wagon as it rolls slowly into the tar pits.

The problem with Frank Johnson (the BBS) and the reason AT&T doesn't make quite so much off me these days is that there is relatively little interesting news and relatively a lot of adolescent smut from people who choose obscene names for themselves no doubt to set the appropriate tone for their drivel. I get more from the 1 in 8000 articles in net.music that ISN'T about everyman music. Good tunes to you, George W. Sherouse <decvax!mcnc!unc!godot!sherouse> "I wish I was somethin'. I wish I was good.
