I have to admit to being floored by the Herald article on Alain Maximilien. 
Growing up in the Haitian Shetls of Miami and Brooklyn I can't think of any of 
my friends who liked rock music much less punk, besides myself. I'm slightly 
younger than Mr. Hillbilly and the only halfway acceptable rock music among my 
set of friends was Aerosmith, and that was because they did a proto rap/rock 
version of "Walk This Way." They couldn't even be bothered with Compas, it was 
all R&B/rap all the time.That always struck me as weird since our parents had 
broader taste of music, a little Benny More here/a little Nemours there.
