House O' Pain #9 (Nashville)

With issue number nine, Nashville's House O' Pain began to grow in size as well as importance. The Metro would soon evolve into Bone Music Magazine and just didn't cover the breadth of alternative and underground music that was covered by the HO'P crew. This issue covers more of the ongoing saga of The Pantheon and the purchase of the club's lease by Nashville rock's favorite scoundrel, Gus Palas. Lots of good interviews in this issue, covering a wide spectrum of musical diversity.
