Yo! I'm Levon. Used to live in Vancouver, but now in a small town on an island.

Ben Lyon (43) from Coldwater/ Kalamazoo, Michigan. I used to do a lotta art for bands. Now I do a little bit of art for bands and work in a library. I play in a couple bands and buy a lotta records, but less than I'd like to.

    Hello folks.
    I'm Kate from the Boston Metro-verse (too much $ and shitty subway).
    I enjoy various musics and the fiber arts.

    I'm Vince, from Columbus, OH. I do zines and write for a few places online, mostly on film stuff but dabble in music writing from time to time.

    Hi, I’m Aya. I lived in San Francisco pretty much all my life, but moved back to Japan 5 years ago. I book shows at a venue called Club Heavy Sick in Tokyo, and also run Bargain Rock Tokyo shows (we have Bargain Rock in SF / Oakland). I’m also in a band called SHE’s here in Tokyo that probably none of you on here know😅

      hi I'm Max from sydney, oz -- very happy to see the return of a central space to talk music after social media & tech subsumed everything into a splintered mush of shit! a lot of recognisable users in here from emailing via my old label, or meeting up on tour with bb & the blips in 2018, and some supports i think from some old bands i was in? nice to see familiar names pop up and catching up with how we're finding music now... feel very optimistic about it. thanks heaps again to TP/Randall for gettin this up and runnin!

      Hi, I’m Wade from SW Ohio.

      I am fanatical about the writs of Richard Meltzer. I help run The Richard Meltzer Fanclub. He’s gonna be 80 years old in MAY. I’m gonna be 37 (not old…) sooner than that.

      THE HEAVY MOTHER II LP WILL BE STELLAR SO PICK IT UP!

      I know cuz I drove to Indiana and witnessed it.

      Ayapapaya Hey Aya! Glad to hear you guys are doing well. Tell Robert hello. Does SHE have a bandcamp?

          Rodney from Melbourne Australia here.
          Getting to senior citizen age but still going to a shit ton of gigs and buying more records than I should.

          Alex here. I’m from NC, but I’ve spent significant time in Western Mass and DC, but now I live in Indianapolis, where I’ve been for 7ish years. I write for MRR and host the increasingly erratic podcast/radio show Garbage in My Heart. I too have spent way too much money on records, but as I’m entering middle age, I’ve found that I’ve shifted some of that spending toward acquiring plants I hope I won’t kill. ✌️

          Eric O, Memphis, TN.
          Run Goner with Zac, do Gonerfest, listen to music, play music with True Sons Of Thunder and threatening more Legs recordings.

          So glad Randall is doing this forum. Goner Board was very important to me and Goner and a bunch of folks before Socialized Mediating took over, and then took a turn for the worst. Hope this can work in a new way befitting our new age.

          I’m Josh. Originally from Dartford in the UK and living in Hamburg Germany for the last 4. Been playing in bands for the last 20 years and currently drumming/barking in The Gents. Our new record comes out tomorrow.

          I’m Chris, live in Portland, formerly New Orleans, long time message board / website jockey going back to BBS days of the 90s. Helped Eric O with running the Goner board for almost 2 decades, and now helping Randall getting this one going. Hoping it stays lively.

          Brian in Brooklyn, thank you for the board - big fan of Total Punk

          I'm Alex Ratcharge from Lyon, France.

          I publish fanzines, write books, translate stuff from English to French, and also I draw things like this :
