I wanted to wait and be sure that the rumors plastered all over the internet were true, and sadly it seems they are. I saw Jay Reatard 4 times over the past few years, and each show was more manic and defeaning than the next. The Jay Reatard show at the Croc back in May '09 was specially awesome, as a visiably drunken crowd came together into a pretty wild mosh pit. It was the first time I had scene crowd surfing at the Croc new or old ever. He was a talented dude, and both of his recent solo records 'Blood Visions' and 'Watch Me Fall' are totally rad. Sucks.
