Top 10

Thanks to everybody that’s been coming out to all the events lately, both here and off-site. Check out the Quimby’s Bookstore group on Flickr, including Chicago Zine Fest Karaoke!

1. Cheetah Chrome: A Dead Boys Tale by Cheetah Chrome (Voyageur Press) $24.00 – Lordy, Lordy: How is Cheetah Chrome even still alive? Punks are apparently related to cockroaches in that they can really take a lickin’ and keep on tickin’. Cheetah makes us grateful he’s survived by unleashing this dishy, druggy and unmodest memoir of his thrashings in the high-trash-era CBGBs New York punk scene. Light a candle for Stiv, crack open a case of beer, and curl up with this one. -EF
