There is this guy John in Long Beach. I don't know him, but I wish I did because he maintains the best damned music blog I have ever read.
Do you ever catch repeats of VH1's I Love the 80s series and stare blankly at the tv thinking, um, should I be laughing right now? Well, those awkward moments will not resurface when you read Lost in the 80s because it is genuinely funny and poignant and features all of the best music of that decade. Think Echo and the Bunnymen b-sides mixed with Naked Eyes and Kommunity FK. Then he will throw in something from his "When New Wave Happens to Old Artists" series. It's almost enough to make me want to go out and buy a teasing hairbrush and some Rave hairspray. Almost.
