Merry Christmas, Lou! Oh, hey John.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

Me, Lou, and Patti. Ah, the heady days of youth.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

Lou, ya bastard! Nice of you to finally show up. Now, where were we?

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

"No money." - me, in 1980, when asked what the major change in the music industry had been over the previous decade. http://t.co/JN7vr8H9k0

The only real hope is Detroit, where at LEAST there's no folkie scene and lots of people still care about getdown gutbucket rock 'n' roll.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

Number 11... not bad. Course they had to put Lou right in front of me. “@WorldWide_DEATH: @lester_bangs http://t.co/4iH5drqV #in”

@M_Hedberg You know, kid - you're all right.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

@CosmoFurthur If you can still feel your hangover, you just need to turn up MMM.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

Well? Feeling better yet? RT @CosmoFurthur "Was Lester Bangs right when he said that "Metal Machine Music" is the greatest hangover cure?"

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

@theladykilla How's it going, kid? Always meant to thank you for the letters. It gets lonely here.

Lester Bangs: Of course I'm home. I'm always home. I'm uncool.

[Lester Bangs @lester_bangs]

A ways back, in a review of Bella Donna, I wrote of Stevie Nicks' "emetic narcissism". But she's got nothing on this @ladygaga chick.

Aw Lou, it’s the best music ever made, the instrumental intro to All Tomorrow’s Parties is like watching dawn break over a bank of buildings
