Crate Digger
Crate Digger: An Obsession With Punk Records | Bob Suren
2 posts | 1 read
A small town Florida teenager discovers punk rock through a loaned mix tape and punk music and culture slowly takes over all aspects of his life. His new passion causes him to form a band, track down out-of-print records that he loves and begin to reissue them, open a record store, begin a record distribution operation as a public service, mentor a host of young musicians, and befriend all manner of punk luminaries along the way. Slowly, his life’s pursuit pushes him to the point of personal ruination and ultimately redemption.

I‘ll be honest, I completely forgot I had this account. I‘ve been reading a lot during the last week(ish) of social distancing, so I‘m going to try and chronicle my literary adventures here, starting with this baby! It wasn‘t as great as I had hoped, but I learned a lot about the punk scene in my home state. Definitely worth checking out if you‘re an alternative music fan #music #punk #socialdistancingbooklist

I'm not quite sure how I feel about this one yet. On one hand it's great to read someone else's memories of bands and albums that I love, and remember how I feel in love with them, but on the other, the chapters feel disjointed.
