I second this, it's a super interesting read!

And if you want to know more about the Los Angeles scene, there is a similar book called We've Got the Neutron Bomb. I think Please Kill Me is a better book, though.

EDIT: I really enjoy oral history books and subcultures, so if anyone has any recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate them!

Ooo, I'll definitely have to check that one out! The other one I have on my bookshelf is The Day the Country Died: A History of Anarcho Punk 1980-1984. I haven't read the whole thing yet, but that may also be interesting to folks interested in punk history.
