When the Pyno guys heard "People who Died" we just about died laughing. Turns out it was a serious song. Ooops.

About two years ago my teen rock combo ( Nutrajet ) we're called up to back Carrol for a few numbers to close his spoken word appearance in Tampa. Then we were informed last-minute that he didn't want to do anything from Catholic Boy. That nixed it for us. Paul, I love “City Drops Into Night ” Cool poster!

Bay Area Music Awards, originally conceived by BAM Magazine. I think Carrol got the "rookie of the year award" that year I met him; he'd been hanging out a lot in SF, so I guess that qualified him. He did a loud, fast version of "People Who Died" at the show--stopped everyone in their tracks. That and Van Morrison's "Walkin' in Venice" were the highlights of that year for me.

Hey Paul, what are the "bammies"?

Paul Grushkin :

I hung w. Carroll when I was producing the Bammies awards show in SF. His song "When the City Drops Into the Night" is nearly as good as "People Who Died (Died)."

I'd go see him in any time. He was the first "punk rock" I think i ever heard. "People who Died" is one of my very favorite songs ever.
