"Cousin" Brian Goodman
Stan mentioned a “Where are they now” section so I thought I would write this!
I left Rochester in 1994 and moved to Albany, NY
I got a job selling drums at the big music store here Drome Sound. Within 2 weeks of moving here I was drumming in 1313 Mockingbird Lane Albany’s garage band! While in 1313 we released 2 45’s both of which I got to sing lead on the B-side! 1 45 even had a song I had written!!!
My son was born in 1996 and I did the stay at home dad thing! Susan from Susan & The Surftones had just moved to Albany & was out the last 1313 show. She approached me and asked if I wanted to join the band. We did a few CD’s for the German Gee Dee label & a 45 for a Belgian label. We also did 3 tours of Europe while I was in the band.
The 1st was in 1997. It was 8 shows in 10 days and was only Germany.
The next tour was 2000 and was a 1 month tour that took me to Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium and the next tour in 2001 was also 1 month and was some of the same but also adding Denmark.
(Thank god I had an understanding wife!!!)
After those tours I try to make it to Germany at least once every 3 years. This year I went & also visited Prague, CZ.
Now I run the mail order dept. at the local record store Last Vestige ( www.lastvestige.com ).
Most of my time is spent selling records to the Russian!!!
I started Thee UMMmm… a 60’s garage band & also Das Schmucks a 3 pc Turbonegro cover band.
I also play drums and sing with The Knyghts Of Fuzz, & Big Kombo and I do a Russian WW2 re-enacting thing www.3rdriflediv.org & http://www.myspace.com/3rdriflebrigade
Looking forward to A Projectiles reunion! The Last attempt was on a day when Rochester decided to have a MAJOR snow storm!!!
Cheers!

What I want to know is, whatever happened to M. Rubert?
-
I thought it was Rupert?
-
Does anyone know what became of BB’s girl? Cute girl from the West side but mean as hell.
Unfortunately, one evening while at the bar, BB’s girl ( think her name was Erin) and my brother’s girlfriend (Tammy) got into a thing and HOLY SHIT!Someone said that the cops were on their way and I remember running for the door because I was using my older sister’s ID and didn’t want to get caught.
I left Tammy to face the wrath of Erin all by herself. The good news is, after a few months Tammy’s hair grew back.
-
It’s “Rupert” if it’s also P. Pigasso or H. Madisse. Philistine.
-
Hey, my memory is not rock solid. I forgot to put a fishnet over my amp for the gig in honor of M.
-
Coming soon: The Where Are They Now Story of Rich H.
Fantastic, Unbelievable but TRUE!! Stay Tuned. -
Erin is a member of the Fabulous Fighting Byrne Sisters — see How Scorgies Ruined My Life. She’s a Carmelite nun now.
-
I’d rather read the Rich H. story.
-
While awaiting Rich’s saga, let me spin an old yarn regarding the aforementioned Erin one late night (early morning) at Jim’s.
In one of their more famous throw-downs, she hurled a full bottle of bud towards her infamous boyfriend – as around ten of us ducked and dodged to avoid the flying missile device.
The bottle smashed against a wall and we all breathed a sigh of relief as we once again escaped her collateral wrath.
I used to feel sorry for some of the woman that crossed her path, as they became roadkill fodder for the white leathered one.
-
Tell me again…who is Brian Goodman?
-
He’s nobody!!!
-
Didn’t I see the Rich Hollands story as a made for TV movie on Lifetime?
-
Didn’t I see C Laben on the wall at the Post Office?
-
I believe “The Rich Hollands Story” was on A&E’s City Confidential.
-
Didn’t I see DJ Thurmie Thurm waddling down a street in the East Village in NYC at 4am after a Social D show at Coney Island High, in just his underwear?
Wait…this one is true.
