Bomb City Babble in Havre de Grace with Liz Lawson

For this Coffee Break, I beamed down at Gallery 220 in Havre de Grace to chat with Punk Queen Liz Lawson about the 2017 movie Bomb City, directed by Jameson Brooks, about the 1997 murder of punk skateboarder Brian Deneke in Amarillo, TX. Liz and I go into all of it… the Us vs. Them mentality that is so present in our society, the punk sub-cultures we both are a part of, who Brian is with his legacy including Marilyn Manson’s 2000 speech on disinformation where he mentioned Brian, and the 2000 ABC News 20/20 episode on the murder and trail. Along with conversations about the movie; Liz talks about her punk journey, sharing an art studio together at Gallery 220 with the changing Havre de Grace art scene, Liz’s Open to Truth or Change installation art exhibition that happened this past summer, and the nature of modern media and social media of our society and its roots that can be seen in this movie. This is a very informative episode where you just might learn something about punks and our postive contributions to society.
