[.ca] Hot Water Music (ISBN 0876855966)

music inspired by Bukowski:
i'm not sure if a lot of people are aware of this, but there is a band that takes its name from the title of this book. Hot Water Music is an awesome band from Gainesville, FL. Most of their music was released on No Idea Records, but their upcoming album will be released by Epitaph Records. They are an absolutley amazing emocore band. Their words give me strength to fight each day. You folks should really check them out.

Every Tale Unexpected:
I recently saw the movie barfly and I was totally entertained and wanted to know more about the person behind the script, hence, Charles Bukowski. His writing is rapid fire and from the gut. I have a tape of his from when he gave a poetry reading and you can tell he talks like he writes. Truly a significant talent. I am now reading one Bukowski after another. Another favorite of short stories is "Tales of a dirty old man". There are some stories I have read from him that STILL have me laughing at just the thought of them, 3 months after reading them. He is the underground genius of American literature.
