Here's one I wrote in 1987. It was about how bands look for publicity more than money... and it WAS publicity... for my friends in LETCH PATROL

ZAP Winter 2019
I've had a long and much loved relationship with Germany. I lived in a commune there (actually, right across the border in Belgium... but I lived with Germans)... and frequently visit. I've spent more time there than in any other non-US country. When my German friends visited New York in the 70s, my mother spoke to them in Yiddish. They could understand, though when they answered, my mother had no clue as to what they were saying.
So, after I was booted from MRR, my friends at ZAP, asked me to write for their newly arisen REAL PRINT zine.
"My German is not good enough," I protested. They printed me in English.
Danke Typer!
I'm working on the next one right now!
