R.I.P. Longenberger; 'Chronicle' Still Sucks

RECEIVED Fri., April 23, 2004

Dear Editor,
   I enjoyed the tiny square on Wade Longenberger ["TCB," Music, April 23] but really, it angered me. He should have been on your cover, and there should have been at least four pages of photos and stories about the most talented, original, and unique musician/performer/artist that Austin has had ever. Your priorities are all screwed up. You guys were never there. He would be walking down Sixth Street on stilts in an orange stuffed jumpsuit breathing fire, and you guys would review some crappy blues band across the street that nobody cares about. He was Santa Claus on roller skates, and the crowd went crazy, and you guys sent some drunk who wasn't even there who said the crowd just sat there when there was a slamming riot danceathon. Your magazine sucks and always will.
Love,
Jason Christian
