DUST MY PUMICE
Noted Rock Crit Ties the Knot
January 1, 1973
Knot-tying is real big in Philadelphia. They’re all married. The Tearsons, the Damskers, they’re all married. Hooked. Hitched. Fuckin wedded before the eyes of Big Bozo upstairs. New York there’s much fewer lefthanded ring fingers with the old metal on it. When was the last one to make it legal, the Richard & Lisa Robinsons? No there was the Bud & Linda Scoppas. And way before that the Ed & Jeanie McCormacks. Christgau’s always auditioning somebody for the role of permanent mate but he hasn’t turned up anything just yet. Richard Goldstein and his honey-bear have called it “quits.” Matrimony in NYC is fuckin shot to shit.
