BTO: BAND FOR A BLAND NEW WORLD
I was on my way to interview Robbie Bachman and Blair Thornton at the St. Moritz when I came upon Martin standing in the rain outside the Doubleday Bookstore on Fifth Avenue, with his Teflon skateboard under one arm and a copy of Pride and Prejudice under the other.
I was on my way to interview Robbie Bachman and Blair Thornton at the St. Moritz when I came upon Martin standing in the rain outside the Doubleday Bookstore on Fifth Avenue, with his Teflon skateboard under one arm and a copy of Pride and Prejudice under the other. Needless to say, I was surprised to see him out in the rain, for, although Martin is only sixteen, he is the author of a much-praised epic poem called Iggy Goes Hawaiian and world's most au courant teenager. As I approached him, he grabbed my arm conspiratorially, and said, "Actually, I've already done it, you know. This second run is just for confirmation."
"Done what?" I asked.
