Okay, but let's give Wayne some love, too, don't forget. He's an awesome guitarist and he's led an interesting life.

Though it should fairly be noted that in most of what he says in the book that quote comes from (
Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk), he does seem to kind of be going way out of his way to make it clear that he was really just a kid from Detroit who liked cars and guitars, and not more than superficially down with all that revolution stuff.
However, it at least
could also fairly be noted that he was (I believe, although I'm not 100 percent ceratin) the only person immediately involved in his little portion of it other than John Sinclair who anyone (Nixon's DEA, as it happened) went to the trouble of actually setting up and sending away. Based on absolutely nothing than how that strikes me. it's always struck me as having been probably not purely coincidental. Given the customs and culture of the era. I mean, it's not like they were the only two doing the kind of thing they ended up being prosecuted for. But whatever the case, either way, considering him in the larger context of his life and career to date:

I heart Wayne Kramer.
