But yeah I pretty much have no faith on Kim as a solo artist anymore. I will have to hear it myself ffrom now on before I buy anymore of her stuff.

Mine was a 1993 Sonic Youth Signature Series Volkswagen. The goddamn thing spent more time in the shop for repairs than it did on the road.

There were a lot of pirated versions imported from Hong Kong. At first glance it was impossible to tell the fake from the genuine, but it didn't take long for the cheap materials to start causing problems and then it was obvious which was which. If I were you I'd change my mechanic, because any decent place would have known in a moment that you had a cheap imitation and would have warned you so that you didn't keep throwing good money after bad.

Are you sure that's it? My understanding was that the entire series was flawed, because they let Thurston and Lee design the power train. In retrospect, I guess great musicianship doesn't always translate to great automotive engineering.

What does "SS" mean? Steve Shelley? He designed the timing belt, which I guess seemed appropriate, since he's a drummer. Still, it was a disaster. The pistons in my engine kept getting damaged, which cost a lot of money. I guess drumming and engineering are not exactly the same thing.

Experimental Jet Set.. Trash.. and no Star... though it is not that bad, but it is the worst in comparison..
