KRVM is programmed by volunteers and no one
is paid for his work. Still, Lizzard says, there are
many reasons she does the show. “Number one, just
to get music out and heard, because I love it,” she
says.
Her second impetus is communication. “It gives
me a good chance to communicate with people from
all over.” She maintains contact with bands and
record labels from around the world. “But,” she
adds, "You don’t have to be a D) to do that. Anybody
can.”
A big part of her love of this genre of music, she
says, is the fact that the musicians maintain an active
communication with the audience. “There is no
secret dressing room where they go and hide” she
says, adding that often they mix with the audience
before and after the perfomances. and sometimes
band members and roadies sleep on floors and
couches in (he homes of people who come to see the
show.
This is in contrast she says, with the “big
shows” where “you pay your $10, go see the shows,
and leave,” and never have any real contact with the
performers.
According to both Lizzard and Tone there is an
emphasis on politics and social issues in some punk
music.
Lizzard points out that the political statements
are quite widespread. “But,” she says, ”90 percent of
the time you know it’s going to be leftist.” The state
ment, she says, is often “Free yourself, be yourself.”
”1 guess,” she adds, “some would call it
anarchistic.”
Part 1 y due to the emphasis on often unpleasant
social issues, and partly due to the dominance by ma
jor record labels, punk music isn't likely to be found
on commercial radio, ''Let's face it,” Lizard says.
“Punk music is not commercial, but it is commercial
ly viable. A lot of people seem to think punk music is
dying, but it's popular in )apan and Europe and here.
That shows that it’s viable.”
Lizzard laughs. ”1 like to consider punk music
folk music" she says. "Music for the people.”
And what of the future of Modern Mono? Accor
ding to Lizzard its fate largely depends on Ballot
Measure 2. "If that passes, community radio will be
cut severely,” she says, and KRVM, which is
operated through Eugene’s 4J school district, would
probably disappear completely.
