We went to a shopping mall
And laughed at all the shoppers
And security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon
They said, “He don’t work here”
We said, “If you don’t got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin’”
-The Dead Milkmen (Punk Rock Girl)
First Shane MacGowan at the end of November, now Mojo Nixon. The soundtrack of my college years is slipping away :(
Mojo was a cool dude. He loved to get out there and play to best dives in every town. Shared a few drinks and BS with him a couple times.
He owes a lot to the Dead Milkmen for helping him sell a few albums and sell out shows.
Well that’s some bummer news to close the day out.
All I can say is Elvis is Everywhere...
