[olug] [OT] Bob Mould {was: Jello aka OLUG social event  [was: Linuxnewbie.org]

[CM Miller]

Not sure if Bob Mould is as outspoken or politically
active as Jello Biafra, but they both share the same
punk roots.  His first band Husker Du is more, raw
pop, power trio, while Sugar is more refined, rockin'
pop.  His solo stuff ranges from acoustic guitar to
just organ.  Sample some MP3s and if you like, buy his
stuff.  I do know that Bob is openly gay, he came out
in the early 90's, but doesn't flaunt it like some
other artists. 

All in all it should be a loud, good show.  I'm
looking forward to meeting up with some fellow OLUG
members to talk some Linux between bands and take in
some music.
