  Hi all,

A quick question for you. I'm helping cobble together an event at a bookstore here
in Brooklyn and one of the things that this event will feature may or may not include
some live music by a band or soloist who has some connection to our main man. 
Besides Lotion, who I believe are defunct, and Borbetomagus, who I love, but who may
not be able to make it, are there are any bands that anyone can think of who have
either a) been publicly endorsed by Pynchon, b) have endorsed or expressed an 
affinity for Pynchon themselves, or c) just seem to be kindred spirits with the man? 

Any thoughts, feedbacks, darts tossed at this dart board here are of course totally 
appreciated; you will most certainly be credited as the long-distance curator of the
musical component of this event if we can pull it off. B-believe me when I say I have 
some of my own ideas, but I figured, you know, ask the foax who probably know best.
Food catered will feature, natch, all the stuff that Slothrop puked up at the Roseland 
Ballroom: "hamburgers, homefries, chef's salad with French dressing, half a bottle of 
Moxie, after-dinner mints, a Clark bar, a pound of salted peanuts, and the cherry from 
some Radcliffe girl's old-fashioned." Oh yeah.

Thanks in advance everyone. 
best! 
Tony
