I enjoy the music of the Didjits, and I understand you did some recording for them. Which records did you work on, and were they a band whose music (or company) you enjoyed?

The Didjits were a great band and good friends. My bands got to play with them several times and it was always a hoot. At one point, while I was still running Ruthless Records, I was going to put out the album that became Hey Judester, but luckily for everyone Corey Rusk from Touch and Go got to hear it and agreed to put it out. I worked on Full Nelson Riley, Little Miss Carriage and some other odds-and-ends. They got a well-deserved windfall when the punk band the Offspring covered "Kill Boy Powerhead" on an album that sold in the millions.
The Didjits reunited for the Touch and Go 25th anniversary, and it was like someone stopped the clock on them in the 80s and then started it again for the show. Immaculate.
