Last Thursday, the managing editor of The Crimson called the CRNC in Washington and received a preliminary okay to attend the Fieldman session here (no waiver of the registration fee, though). He showed up at the Phillips Brooks House Parlour Room Friday night to sign...
...picked up and just started to listen. This could be the best band playing music in this town, and that's not just because I know their guitarist.

Okay, where was The Crimson when this was going on? But more to my point, where were women on The Crimson?
