MISSED CONNECTION: I spotted your copy of “Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung” on a table at the Chicago Zine Fest afterparty, but I couldn’t find you. If Lester Bangs’ freewheeling genius sets off fireworks in your brain too, let’s meet at a late-night diner and let it blurt about punk rock, zines, the fine art of literary self-destruction, and the way one perfect song can make the whole world go shimmery at the edges, if only for a moment.
