| Sonic Youth – Chapel Hill Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
On the "Durham H.C. Kids": H.C. may mean Hard Core, at the time sonic youth was considered by many to be in the "hard core" scene. They were also playing with the likes of nirvana and dinosaur jr., both VERY loud bands, so this would make sense. I'm not sure about back then, but I do know Durham is now considered to have one of if not the highest rates of gang violence in the U.S. Also, the "Char Grill" is a burger chain started in Raleigh in the 1960's, from the pictures it looks like one of those old drive-ins with the waiters on skates and what not. It was probably a haunt for beatniks and hot-roders or something. Great song, thanks everyone else, this one's always interested me a lot. |
