Hello there Larry. Been a big fan of your story and the Lookout history since I've been going to college and been a listening to the Lookout catalog since I was in 6th grade. Met you a couple times at various book signings in Jersey City and Manhattan as well!

I only have two questions that I would like to ask

  1. Being a big fan of your last book, it talked a lot about your personal life while living up in Sky Rock and less about the music which I throughly enjoyed a lot. Will this style of writing be similar in the next book, or will it follow more of your experience with the Lookout artists and the music scene of CA?

  2. When Lookout records was losing their rights to music they owned in the mid 2000s to certain bands, was it because their rights were expired or was it because they pulled their records rights to release them in a better business model? Screeching Weasel and The Queers pulled their rights away while Mr. T Experience seem to stay in print even after the demise and I was always curious to why that was. I don't know if you know the answer but curious to what your thoughts might be.

Thanks again and I hope you do a book reading around the area again soon!

Oopies my mistake! I didn't recheck my question when writing this, and yes it is my name!

Thanks for answering my questions, especially the second one. Was always wondering the business aspect of how and why band were leaving the label.
