Charles W. Shewry III

A quick listen vs a quick read!

Revisado: 06-16-23

I’ve seen this memoir go in and out of print numerous times, and I’ve always just missed grabbing a copy. I was thrilled to find it on audible.
As an aging hipster doofus, I find myself lazily wandering through the memories of the early 90’s Dallas music scene. Particularly it’s appreciation for industrial music. And I was thrilled to hear specific mention of the Revco and Ministry shows at Tommy’s/Industry and the Pigface show at Trees(I was an audience member looking around the floor for the pendant, although my memory has Ogre describing as a masturbating Jesus Christ, and the reward was bad coke and beer), that I attended.
The memoir was a jet speed(pun intended) fast journey through a very specific time and was filled with equally hilarious and horrifying tales. But told with wit and amazing memory. Not knowing the story of Chris’ GF’s passing, I was stunned and saddened. I genuinely hope there have been many, many sessions of therapy for Chris. Thanks for the memoir!
By the way, more memoirs should include the author laughing at their memories. It was a joyful addition.
