概要

Jeff Elder Isn't Real is a Substack by writer and musician Jeff Elder, a place where the curtain is half open. Part memoir, part creative process, part cultural observation. Warm, honest, and a little strange. Just like life.In this episode, Jeff reads his latest post, "Oak Lawn and a Floppy Disk," a chapter from his ongoing life story set in late 1980s Tulsa and Dallas. It's about helping a friend move to Dallas, hearing the right song in the right room for the first time, a late night walk through Oak Lawn's gay bar district, a mock Pet Shop Boys recording called "What Has Troy Done to Deserve This," and the moment a phone number written on a 3.5 inch floppy disk changed everything. Also featuring Joe Christ, Greg Ginn, JJ Fad, Duran Duran, and the early days of what would eventually become Red Red Groove.Note: If you’re listening to the audio version, I apologize in advance - we were having a bit of a rainstorm at the time of recording. So, you may notice a little extra “air” sound on this one lol - such is life. If it’s not the dogs, it’s the weather…Subscribe to Jeff Elder Isn't Real on Substack for new posts every week, including audio versions of most every essay.
