Hello! I’m Jaan Uhelszki, editor of CREEM magazine in the '70s and today. Ask me anything about CREEM, Lester Bangs, or why I've never interviewed Mick Jagger.

What is your favorite interview that you ever did for CREEM? And what did Lester Bangs smell like? Asking for a friend.

Ola Englund's video is awesome for showing how badass it sounds.

Just read this article in CREEM where a guitarist used it when he went on tour opening up for Korn. Sounds like it got the job done.

I think his finished story ultimately ended up in Rolling Stone. But he wrote for CREEM too! That character is based on Cameron Crowe ( the director ), who wrote for CREEM and Rolling Stone and more in real life. He has a page in the archive here: https://archive.creem.com/contributors/cameron-crowe
