i work at record store on the weekends. A few months ago Daniel Johnston popped in un-announced. He was one of the nicest people I've met. I gave him a can of orange soda. He bought two Wizard of Oz DVDs and a Muppets movie.

jandek is also a pretty interesting outsider musician, his documetnary was also quite interesting.

DJ was huge in austin when I lived there. I'm pretty sure he still lives there. He does deserve a little more public recognition. Unfortunately he will probably not make it big into the public eye until he dies.

I just watched the devil and daniel johnston. everyone kept talking about what a genius he is/was. he can't even play guitar and his voice sucks.
- Aw no, its the life and the spirit of the man. His music is like looking at the soul, flawed exposed raw bonkers.********

Llyod, it is much deeper than that, you must understand that music isn't always face value. Bob Dylan has a pretty weird / arguably shitty voice too, especially now, but he's regarded as a legend and a genius. It's all about the thought process that is just something that cannot be imitated.
