I was in San Francisco last week where I had a line on the elusive Marantz PMS7000 blaster. Tooling around the city on the way to meet my contact, I noticed far too many beGapped women, buttoned up to the chin, head down, clip-clopping their way through the streets on their way to ponderous business meetings, staid afterwork drinks, and apartments that reeked of catfood and desire. These women needed to lose control…

I strapped on my trusty Panasonic RX-5350 with the custom amps and speakers, and selected Joy Division’s seminal She’s Lost Control, which I blasted on Steiner Street until ears were bleeding, wet panties were thrown in my general direction, and the police came calling. Ladies of the world, lose control! At least once a week… this song might help.

Moving Units makes me want to crank the volume in my ‘am and not drive, just sit there and take drugs. Not normal drugs, but some generic drugs that would just come in a giant bag that said DRUGS on them. Once I had enough drugs, I would stand up on the seat of my ‘am and just dance dance dance dance dance to the radio. I may be an acne-scarred 70’s holdover with a wild mane and a belly full of drugs, but I can dance like a Stallion with rollerskates on when it’s my time. And Moving Units makes it my time. So fuck off and dance, punks!
