John Shirley is a musician and the award-winning author of more than thirty books. As co-screenwriter of The Crow, he gave Eric Draven a guitar and William Gibson called him Cyberpunk Patient Zero. In my opinion, he has masterpieces in both Science Fiction (City Come-a-Walkin') and Horror (Wetbones). At the forefront of Bizarro, Cyper, and Splatterpunk it was John who actually put the punk in those movements. Not only was he wearing dog collars to Science Fiction conventions in the 70s he was fronting early Portland punk bands like Obsession and Sado-nation.

John is back with a new band the Screaming Geezers and has a new novel Stormland on the way. That is what we mostly talk about but we of course get into the state of the world and touch on a few Shirley classics.
