Rob Buck, 10000 Maniacs guitarist
died. That sucks. I went to Cal Poly with an Architecture major named
Kathrine who introduced me to the Maniacs, and they have been one of my
favorites bands since. I thought I had all their albums up to 1993. I
just found out I’m missing quite a few but I digress. I’ve always loved
the glimpse we got of their early music from Fredonia in Hope Chest. Rob and the rest of the band evolved and created music which endures. I found a great message from someone who knew the Maniacs at Fredonia reminiscing about those days.
