Abbey. Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 I'm so excited that the Little Rock crew is getting some recognition from mainstream Green Day culture. They had, and continue to have, an unbelievable community where you'd least expect one. That's right...hes from Little Rock...you think their little rock crew all got diddled by Bill Clinton back in the day?
alaniluau Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 That's right...hes from Little Rock...you think their little rock crew all got diddled by Bill Clinton back in the day? I don't know about that, but there is the story about how all the punks played a show at the Arkansas governor's house back in the day for his daughter's birthday.
fluke Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 I don't know about that, but there is the story about how all the punks played a show at the Arkansas governor's house back in the day for his daughter's birthday. You're close, alaniluau. When Bill Clinton left for DC to be Mr President, Jim Guy Tucker was elected the governor of Arkansas. His daughter was friends with a punk kid named John, who lived across the street from the Governor's Mansion. John was in a band in which I played bass. Jim Guy's daughter's birthday party was a punk show in the backyard of the mansion. Our band opened the show. There were like 12 bands that played that day, including Nuisance, a Lookout band from Santa Rosa who we all loved. They were in town the night before, on their tour, and had a day off the next day so we asked if they'd like to play the show and they were stoked!! Green Day came through LR a few times as well, in the early '90s. A great after-show pool party was had one year. Little Rock!! Thanks to everyone for buying the 20th Anniversary issue of Fluke! I have more good stuff in store so you can follow me online or write to my po box for updates.

ludwiig Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 I was just about to order it but my card was declined. Turns out i have no money
fluke Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 I was just about to order it but my card was declined. Turns out i have no money Well try again when you get some, I have plenty!
Anja Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 We do. I'll be doing the shipping for Europe. Does that mean the shipping will be lower? (than the $4)
Fuzz Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Does that mean the shipping will be lower? (than the $4) We're always checking to see how little we can get away with charging for shipping. Right now prices have stayed the same because we still have to cover the initial costs of shipping some to Tony, then he has to buy supplies to ship them out individually. But, if it's incredibly cheaper for him to ship them out than it is for us to do from the US, then we can adjust the prices for future items.
Four. Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Just ordered mine too! Hopefully with the post delayed I'll still be able to get it before next year.
in_your_face Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I'd like to buy it, but my mom won't accept it. Hopefully i'll buy the future items when i can stand on my own feet.
fluke Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 I'd like to buy it, but my mom won't accept it. Hopefully i'll buy the future items when i can stand on my own feet. I will save you a copy! And yes, be in touch for future releases.
Fuzz Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 We placed the order today, hope to get them in sometime next week so we can start shipping them out.
in_your_face Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 I will save you a copy! And yes, be in touch for future releases. Oh thank you!
fluke Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Oh thank you! You're welcome! You can find me on Facebook if you like, and/or Twitter. For some reason, when I click on the Fluke icon on the homepage it doesn't show anything other than the Cometbus for sale now. I'm sending the zines out to GDA no later than Monday so at least Andres will get them by next week. Thanks again to everyone who ordered and thanks to Abbey, Andres, Tony and everyone else at GDA! Stay tuned with Fluke zine, I have some more good stuff in store that will include Jason. If you would like to become part of the Fluke Street Team and distribute the fanzine in your town, get ahold of me.
