As an Englishman who hasn't been to Austin, let alone grew up there, I have
nothing to add, though I respect your loss. But I notice one of your clubs
is called Club Foot, and that's also the name of my favourite song by
Kasabian. Wonder if there's a connection. Seeing as KJ named a tune after a
club (SO36), maybe it is!

lost a good one, dixon coulbourn:
<br>>http://post-literate.com/gerpunx/archives/2005/08/dixon_coulbourn.php<br>>dixon's
austin punk rag "idle time" was a lynch pin for the scene
<br>>and because of this documentary work of his experiences over the
<br>>years has made a tremendous contribution to a great city's legendary
<br>>punk rock scene. without his devotion so much of austin's formative
<br>>punk years would be lost in rotted centex brain cells. really sad
<br>>that he has gone.<br>><br>>i have enjoyed his contributions
for many years and i get a big kick <br>>seeing the pictures of old
friends in the audiences slamming, <br>>hanging, discovering and
participating in what was a wonderful new <br>>world of punk. for any of
you who aren't familiar with the great <br>>austin TX scene, check out
this page of his photos (it is a treasure <br>>trove) and discover what
took place in austin circa
77-86:<br>>http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~edge/idle_time/index.php<br>><br>>if
anyone would like to see his some of his other contributions, for
<br>>instance, his pop group page, go

explore this wealth he has
