I emailed The Dickies (via their label or mgmt) a typical fan letter in the 90s. They mailed this 8x10 & other stuff to me in NC, but the band says it's definitely NOT their signatures, probably forged by someone. Not sure what the story is there. Mgmt shenanigans? I dunno! -- Michael Pilmer / The Dickies Assistant |
This was during the Idjit Savant period..a very dark time with lots of drugs. The gentlemen on the far left is Jonathan Melvoin, who became Smashing Pumpkins keyboardist, and who died of an overdose fairly soon after. -- Leonard Graves Phillips

That was a very special time. Jonathan Melvoin was a very special individual and Ed's idea for the shot was super eclectic right?! Good times. -- Marc Vachon / Bass during this era
