DISCLAIMER:
A FRIEND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FUNNY TO WRITE TO A PRISONER USING MY NAME.

My dear subject why did you not answer my letter that I wrote to you. You say that you are a sado-masochist and want to know what I can offer you. Well first of all I am a prisoner in the custody of this great Commonwealth and as a result I am limited to what I can do. I am not a phoney I am perfectly sincere in my Philosophy if I could I would crush up all the Nubians in this fucked up country of ours and make tar roads out of them, for the fourth Reich, for I promise you that the day I set my feet on the road of freedom the world will tremble in fear. So gather all your friends to help me with my mission in life. Please answer.

I remain the savior of the white race,

Hi Tom & Chuck:

We arrived safe and sound and loved every minute. Disney World was really great - we laughed so much. The drive was great - like riding on a cloud. 75 degrees - everybody swimming. So glad we took the trip - didn't realize what a rut we were in. Hope the car is O.K.

Love,
Mom & Pat

Dear Tom:

I just happened to be going through the Creem Readers Poll ballots when I happened across your ballot. Not only do you have guacamole for brains, I bet you could write better lyrics for Lou's next album (which I heard -- it sounds like the Eagles). You're on the right track (i.e., you think like I do) and I hope you get elected to something in 1976 or at least a humjob from your girlfriend at least twice a week or at least a few Percodans now and then especially when you got a bad hangover if you drink. If you don't, don't bother, because Romilar is the best high in the world. Start in with that and don't bother with any of the other crap except speed, cognac, and pain pills. My only complaint about your ballot is no mention of the 'Tators. You must have your head up your ass and I hope you die.

Your friends,
Lester Bangs

P.S. The listing under "Best Instrumentalist" of William Burroughs (uncircumcised Puerto Rican) is the funniest thing I've read since the last issue of Easy Riders.

P.P.S. Metal Machine Music really is the best album of the past ten years. Close second: Kiss Alive.
