[lbo-talk] The "NAFTA Superhighway" Urban Myth

[B.]

There was an indie/punk label from Dallas called
Direct Hit Records. Their logo was a picture of
Kennedy with a target on his head.  Get it? Direct
Hit? http://www.direct-hit.com/

As far as a band called Texas Schoolbook Depository
(which is now a museum) -- not that I know of. But of
course in Dallas the Kennedy assassination is always
fodder for bands to provoke audiences. TX punk band
The Huns had a song in 1979, "Glad He's Dead," about
Kennedy's assassination. Could never tell if it was
sarcastic or just shock rock. ("He took his orders
from the Pope!/ I'm glad he's dead / That fucking
red!") That gem is here, free, mp3:
