I have a shit ton of 7"s. This is simply an excuse to get off my lazy 21st Century ass and make them more easily listened to as 1's & 0's. I then share. It's a symbiotic relationship. I may even toss in an occasional lp or something. If it's your OOP record and you don't want it posted, Just let me know. I'll gladly take it down. I'm easy.

Thayer St.
Not a lot to say.
Thayer St (1984)
The Dogmatics were from Boston and I only really saw them a few times back in the day.
They have a website and apparently played a few times in some form or another in 2016. The website also has some biographical stuff that is better written and more succinct than just about anything I could come up involving the fun, beer and ultimately tragedy of their brief existence.
The only thing that I might add is that there is a story about what was likely a loft party where the Dogmatics were playing. At this said event was a young fellow name of Charlie Chesterman who had only very recently moved to the big city from Iowa and who was in the process of forming Scruffy the Cat, a band I sorely loved at the time.
In the Dogmatics set they performed a song called "King Size Cigarette" which was originally by an obscure band called the Law who had put out a sole single in 1980 to little or no recognition. The song in question was written by one Charlie Chesterman. A awkward conversation occurred and everybody laughed and became friends.
It was a beautiful story.
The End.
